Hi,
I just got a A320 from dx. I first thought it was dead since it doesn't turn on (even after charging).
I tried to install Dingux without success... but the screen does turn on and the machine is able to execute code: it is not completely dead :-)!
I have the following error when running the dual boot installer:
"Flash erase failed, you will most likely have to do a full firmware restore, sorry. Please report this failure."
My config:
A320 9338
Steps:
1) download
http://dingoo-linux.googlecode.com/files/dingux_dual_boot_installer_20110420.zip2) # ./usbtool-linux 1 hwinit_ILI9338.bin 0x80000000 (I can see the screen with "Dingux" written on it)
3) # ./usbtool-linux 1 zImage_dual_boot_installer_ILI9338 0x80600000 (reboot is fine and I see the screen with "Continue" at the bottom)
4) press start button (I see the screen with "Acceptance of Terms")
5) press start button, select YES, press start button
6) select either "dual-boot" or "original firmware" (I've tried both) and press start button (I see the screen with "About to write DUAL_BOOT SPL to NAND flash, do you want to continue?)
7) select YES and press start button -> "Flash erase failed, you will most likely have to do a full firmware restore, sorry. Please report this failure."
How can I check if there is a NAND hardware failure? Is that even possible?
How can I do this firmware restore from a computer under GNU/Linux?
Is there another way to install Dingux?
Thanks for your help,
/Alex
