I bricked my VIM (no uboot ?)

Technical Support

Hello,

I have a problem with my board.
I tried to flash this rom ( [ROM] Khadas Vim SCV1-ATV (Android TV) ), but it failed (infinite boot on the recovery), so I wanted to flash an another rom (the official Oreo rom the example).
But it failed:

./aml-flash --img=VIM_Oreo_Preview_V171229/VIM_Oreo_V171229/update.img --soc=gxl --wipe --reset=n --parts=all
Unpacking image [OK]

The board didn’t boot anymore (no signal)
I only have this line from the serial:

I can’t go into the console mode

Any idea ? I just get the board :frowning:

Thx

You can try to flash your VIM with VIM_Nougat_V180210 on windows and not Ubuntu.About more burning informations,you can refer to the docs.

I use Ubuntu because USB Upgrade Tool doesn’t detect my VIM :frowning:

Edit : I tried and this time the detection works. But it still not working, I have this error at 2%Download DDR
