NVFlash Only Method of Access

[illdill]

Hello, this is not another boot-loop brick issue as many of you are having. I have no adb access and no fastboot. I am stuck trying to do whatever NVflash will allow. I desperately need some information from the next post if anyone can help.

 

[illdill]

I may need to redefine the partitions but I will need info from someones device. If someone could PLEASE do the following. It will not overwrite anything on your device.

Download this file and put it in your nvflash directory and boot your device into boot-loader mode (Hold Vol up + down and insert USB)

http:/illdill.org/streak7/files/bootloader.bin

in NVFLASH use the following command:

Try this without the bootloader file, it may still give results:

nvflash --getpartitiontable partitiontable.txt

If not:

nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --getpartitiontable partitiontable.txt

Please send me, or post the outputed txt file.

Also, I will need the partition img files for 2 through 7 if anyone would please be so kind.

nvflash --read x part-x.img (where x is the partition number so you will have to run the command for each partition 2-7)


Thanks in advance!

where do I get nvflash program

If you could help with this lou0611, I would be forever indebted. Here is nvflash with the boot-loader drivers:

Holding down Volume Up & Down while plugging in the usb will get you into APX mode. Your computer should recognize an APX device (your screen will remain blank). Choose to manually install the drivers from the bootloader-drivers folder in the zip file.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

You have only yourself to thank for that, your the one that suggested I look into NVFlash. Thanks, by the way

They are in the bootloader-driver folder in the zip file. Should be NvidiaUsb.inf

this is what i got


C:\Documents and Settings\media\My Documents\Downloads\NVFlash>nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --getpartitiontable partitiontable.txt
Nvflash started

Try pulling out the USB, powering off (reset pinhole by sd card) and going back into APX mode again, this usually happens when it isn't comming with the device properly, may need to restart computer as well.

And again, thanks so much for your help with this.

What does the device show up as? Right-click Computer>Manage>Device Manager>Universal Serial Bus Controllers

Should say NVIDIA USB boot-recovery driver

Try the command without the bootloader:

Ok, try again with the bootloader You may have to exit and re-enter apx mode.

nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --getpartitiontable partitiontable.txt

Also, don't put a space in the output filename, it may not work.
