Hi everyone.

Here i will be posting a guide to Unbrick any X201 motherboard.

I did this as mu watch lost usb function after flashing cm13 . at the time i didnt relise the rom was 320x320 res and watch was only 240x240 lol. lesson learned.

I have now managed to find and link a serial rs-232 Uart adpater to the board and currently flashing my own custom rom that works back to the watch.

Only thing is that the transfer rate i get i only 11.25 Kbs so it's going to take about 9 hours for my 600 meg rom to transfer lol.

Hey, if it get's it working again, worth the wait.

I will post later the progress and let you know if it boots fine. I will then post the pins for the serial port link.:laugh

Progress update: watch is back on working.

Will post pictures of the uart points later when I'm home.
