Rockchip Batch Tool Firmware Fail

Posted By admin On 27.09.19

Download the latest version of RockChip Batch Tool including V1.5, V1.7, V1.8 to flash IMG Firmware on Android Device.

Okay, so I just bought a JXD 7800b and it was working fine. I wanted to load the Supercharged Firmware on, so I downloaded the Rockchip Batch Tool located in the Supercharged thread on these message boards. When I plugged it in to my computer, the system was not recognized.

I used the drivers in the Rockchip batch folder to install the drivers. I used vol + & Power for 4 seconds to get it to recognize, and batch tool noticed it right away. I started the upgrade process, and it grabbed some things, but when it was waiting for the loader, it failed. After that, my computer system would not recognize the USB (Says USB Device Not Recognized, USB Device Malfunctioned). Now my unit won't turn on at all. I tried using the reset button, but it doesn't do anything. Did I just brick my unit?

I obviously don't have much experience in this. I'm having a similar problem to this guy. While I've had Android devices in the past, I've never Rooted them or changed any of their firmwares, and while I did try to follow the instructions as closely as I could, I still don't know what I'm doing and they weren't clear enough for me. Thanks for letting me know it should be fixable. I've done a little bit of digging and found some threads about un-bricking. I've tried using rktoolkit, and while it recognizes the device, it will get stuck on checking the partition size. I found another tool, the 'Linux Upgrade Tool' But honestly, I have no idea what I'm doing with it, and I'd really rather not screw this up any further.

It does recognize it, too, though. I'll take a look at lujji's rom - had no idea supercharged was out of date. UPDATE: After searching these message boards high and low for some information, I read that someone said I should try plugging the unit into a different computer (hopefully with a earlier OS). I'm running Windows 10 on my main system, but my family has a computer running windows 7. So, I tried it (installing the appropriate drivers) and sure enough, RKBatchTool showed a blue square (with the numbers 7-4 under it).Now that I've screwed this all up, I'd appreciate if someone told me what to do to at least get my unit back to how it was before. I don't really trust myself after all this. EDIT: Here is what it looks like when I try to flash the firmware.

Ok, so your device is recognized by Rockchip Batch Tool. Plese note that you must use the RESTORE option, not upgrade. Restore will delete all previous firmware and install a new clean one. As said, search for the lujji's Kitkat 4.4.4 thread. Since his firmware is KitKat, you should be able to install it. And it is the best firmware and the newest one.

Performance of the device is very good. Read all the post in the thread so you will have more info. The true is that JXD has lowered the quality of s7800 every year.

First models were RK3188 chipset at 1.8 Ghz. Then they changed it for RK3188-T version at 1.6 Ghz (mine). Then even worse models at 1.4 Ghz and finally the devices with the power sleep issue. I am using the overclocked version of lujji's and it is stable on my device, even at 1.7 Ghz, but my tablet is second generation. You can try this overclocked firmware with no risk, but if you see that your tablet freezes sometimes, you will need to install the regular lujji's firmware (always with the RESTORE option).

Rockchip Batch Tool Download Firmware Fail

Also, even if you do not see freezes, still run AnTuTu benchmark app (download it from Play Store): you should get about 24,000 points. If you get less, you will need to install the default version in any case because you are loosing real performance. Even with default lujji's firmware, although lujji recommends to set the governor of CPU to 'interactive', it seems that newer devices can have problems with the power button going to sleep. If this is your case, instead try the 'ondemand' governor and, if you still have any problem, try to set the CPU speed to 1.4 Ghz instead 1.6 Ghz. Scheduler always on 'deadline'.

All these settings are on Set CPU app, included in the firmware. Hope this helps! Update: I tried to do what this guy did, since we both had a similar situation: it really seemed like it worked at first.

I had the blue square, I did exactly as he said, and it seemed to go through just fine. It flashed, I actually got the JXD logo, and recovery did it's thing. Then, the unit said the battery was dead and charging. Okay, makes sense. It was in recovery mode all night and I didn't keep it plugged in.

But then, when the computer recognized the device as android, the screen went black. And since then, it won't turn on at all.

I left it to charge for 4 hours and it still would not turn on. It wasn't being recognized at all by the computer anymore.

I stupidly did Vol+ and Power to get it to recognize. While a signal is going out now, ALL computers are reading the device as malfunctioning. Windows 7 and Windows XP. It doesn't even show up in RK anymore. Now I don't know what to do at all.

Rockchip Factory Tool

I'm pretty frustrated, as you can guess - I feel like I invested in a $140 paperweight. Maybe I'm not cut out to use one of these, but if ANYONE has anything they know to help, PLEASE let me know. If that is not the problem and you are using the correct AC adapter, then maybe the tablet is finally bricked. Never install a firmware with no battery, it is the most important thing!

If you do not find a solution, I would suggest to try to return the tablet as defective to the seller. Shipment is expensive, but at least you will get a new device. Think that JXD itself offers new firmware updates, so you are not doing really any illegal, there is always some risk when installing any firmware. But do not say any of this to the seller just in case, just tell him that the dablet did not work from the beginning. Your tablet is in good condition, just has a software issue, and I think that you have the right to return it, is all I can say. I was and have been using the power cable provided in the box to charge - it's the only power cable they sent.

I remember reading that the USB does NOT work for charging, so I wasn't doing that. I'm in contact with some Android shops in the area to see if any of them are willing to try and fix this for me.

I read that you can get the device into Mask mode by shorting some pins; at this point that maybe be what I have to do. Although I'm not comfortable doing it myself. As for returning. I tried that. The seller assured me that he tested the unit before he sent it out and would not replace it for me unless something happened in shipment. But what happened, to the seller, was clearly not caused by shipment problems, so he's not buying. So I was honest and told him I bricked it trying to upgrade the firmware.

No response, of course. I might try again, but I just don't know anymore. I might just have to buy another one.

As much as that pains me to say. I feel pretty stupid. I was afraid I had gone hard brick, but actually. I'm not sure why, but the unit just needed the reset pin to be pushed in.

After that, it booted fine! Thank you mitcher78 for all of your help.

Batch

I seriously am not skilled at these sorts of things at all. In fact, I'm going to wait to upgrade the firmware a bit. I'd like to enjoy my unit for a little first. Now, I have a new problem.

The power button seems to work, but if the unit goes into sleep mode, it won't turn back on. Does this have something to do with the firmware I flashed (Which was the stock JXD S7000B 16GB, Android 4.2.2 firmware)? Does that mean I need to flash it again to fix the problem? That is the problem that I told you just before, about the power button issue. It seems something related to newer models, even with stock firmware!!! There is another post of a guy having the same issue, read it and try to contact this person. I recommended him to use lujji's firmware with 'ondemand' governor instead ineractive, as I have said to you.

However, although this reduces the problem and fix it for some people, it seems that does not eliminate it for all the models. To find a fix for this would be a discovery. Unfortunately, no more developers are working for this unit:-(. Yeah, it's not like you can't use the device with the problem, but man is it super annoying. I decided to take the risk and upgrade the firmware to Lujji's. I used this video to do it: The only difference is, what you have to do when he gets to the part about putting the JXD in flash mode, is first to turn the device on and mount the device as USB Mass Storage.

This is accessed by going to settings, going to 'storage' and pressing the option button. This brings up the USB Connection option. Even though it already says it's connected as a mass storage device, click it again. It will prompt you to mount. Tap it, and then your computer should be prompting to install drivers. If you don't have the drivers installed, now is a good time to install them.

Then, after the drivers are installed, power down the unit by pressing the power button. Then, hold the reset button for 5 seconds. Finally, you can hold Vol+ and Power for 4-5 seconds to put the device into Flash mode.

After that, everything else is good! The power button functions correctly for me now using the Lujji firmware provided in the description section of that video. I'm sorry to all of those out there that the firmware just does not fix it for. Admitedly, mine has a new problem where it makes a high pitched buzzing noise when you do anything with it. But I'll get used to it.

Now I need to figure out how to move apps to the SD card, and how to get emulators working on this thing.

Contents. Before you start Keep in mind that: You can always flash the MarsBoard, it never bricks (as the name:)) unless some hardware damage occurs.

What you will need to flash the board is:. a MarsBoard RK3066 board. a PC running Windows (XP 32/64bit, Windows 7 32/64 bit) or Linux (32/64bit). a micro USB cable with one side plugged in to the OTG port of MarsBoard and the other side plugged into the USB port on PC. Windows The Windows tool for flashing the image is provided by Rockchip. To flash the, you need to use the RKBatchTool and to flash the, you will need to use RKDevelopTool.

Both RKBatchTool and RKDevelopTool rely on the RK USB driver so you will need to install it first as below: Install driver There two ways to install the driver under Windows:. install using RKDriverAssistant tools - the easy way. install manually If you have already installed the USB driver please skip this step.

Fail

Install using RK Driver Assistant tools There’s no need to connect your Rockchip device during this procedure just download and extract Then double click on DriverInstall.exe in the RKDriverAssistant directory to start the utility. If you've previously tried to install the Rockchip USB drivers for any Rockchip devices make sure you click “Uninstall Driver” first. Then click “Install Driver”, and depending on your version of Windows the Security below may show up twice during installation. Just click “Install” when the driver has finish installing then shut down MarsBoard and connect the MarsBoard to your computer and let the board go to, then your computer will detect the board and you will see it within device manager.

Now the driver should have been installed successfully! Install Manually Download the file (RockusbDriverv3.7.rar) from and shut down the MarsBoard then connect the MarsBoard to the computer and let the board go to. After your computer should detect the board and you will see an unknown device within device manager. Select the Unknown device then right click and select 'Update Driver Software'. Select 'Browse the computer for driver software'. Find the file unzipped file you downloaded earlier (RockusbDriverv3.7.rar) and select either the 32/64bit folder then click 'OK' to install.

When the driver is installed successful you will then see a Rockusb Device in the device manager window. Now the driver is installed successfully.

Flash Image There are two methods to flash an image use android tools. use Download Image (can flash by partitions). use upgrading firmware (flash update.img only, it will erase everything.) Using AndroidTool to flash update.img (Firmware) Download AndroidTool from. Then unzip it and double click AndroidTool.exe Select an image (RK3066 update.img), click Firmware. For information on how to make an update.img see Power down the MarsBoard and connect the MarsBoard to the computer then let the board go to after the program should detect the device. Click the 'Upgrade' button to begin flashing and when the flashing process finishes successfully you will see the following interface.

If the flashing has aborted,it could possibly be an error with the update.img, you can either try to redo the operations above or make the update.img again! Using AndroidTool to falsh image by partition Download AndroidTool from. Unzip it the file and double click AndroidTool.exe. Power down the MarsBoard and connect the MarsBoard to the computer and let the board go to then the program will detect it. There are eight selections to choose from so select the correct row and then select the checkbox to the left of the row to select it. After you must click the column on the right side for the path of the file you want to flash. You can then select one or more files and flash them at once.

Finally Click 'Run' to flash images to the device (the right most selection shows the log of the progress). If successful the board will disconnect from the tool and boot into the system.

Please Note:. The kernel is contained within the boot.img when you package the image by './mkimage.sh ota' please see for more information. you can flash one of more image at one time as needed Preparing IDB failed This happens at upgrading bootloader, if you need to upgrade the bootloader or the update.img contains a new bootloader, you probably will meet this. The marsboard is 'bricked'. Follow this to unbrick it. Linux Rockchip has provided tools for upgrading within Linux (closed source) since Android 4.4. The initial RE work of the Rockchip bootloader updating protocol is by naobsd and has been improved by some in rkflashtool.

Linuxerwang has made a GUI version of the rkflashtool called rkflashkit. Warning: both rkflashtool and rkflashkit can not flash the.

Using Linux Upgrade Tool to flash update.img Download the Rockchip linux upgrade tool. Unzip it and you will get a file called upgradetool which is a binary executable file under Linux.
