Problem firmware update
Man, I am developer and I really don't understand how to update the firmware. I followed all the instructions you posted on the github issues but......nope it doesn't work. it seems my mbrush is updating and restarting after using the cloner-2.5.8-ubuntu_alpha and the image generated by the tools/release_fw.sh but my phone couldn't connect to it. I have tried different combinations of files in the USBCloner/config/POLICY but no way..... I am close to send the device back so.... Could you post a video tutorial quickly before I become nervous using this device and throw it away?
The tarball (*.tar) generated by the tools/release_fw.sh is not for the cloner tool.
Which images you should feed to the cloner tool please refer: #18
I already tried that:
download the burn tool: cloner-2.5.8-ubuntu_alpha.tar.bz2
unzip it
download the firmware: cloner_fw_4.32_4.16.zip
unzip it
run cloner from the cloner-2.5.8-ubuntu_alpha
Go to config/POLICY
Click on setting button:
For label boot => path to the boot file: u-boot-with-spl-20200514.bin
For label kernel => path to the file uImage-4.16
For label rootfs => path to the file rootfs_princube_4.32.ubifs, also tried rootfs_mbrush_4.32.ubifs
Save
Start
connect the mbrush via USB to my computer
switch on mbrush with click the top button to enter the developer mode
It seemed to work correctly:
The mbrush made a sound (one bip) and restarted.
Then use my phone to connect to it via wifi:
open the wifi panel, found the MBrush-, st:0, connect to it with the default password: 12345678
open my browser (from my phone)
and WTF it works now!
THE IMPORTANT THING IS TO FORGET THE DEVICE WIFI AND RECONNECT TO IT USING THE PASSWORD
OTHERWISE IT WOULD NOT CONNECT TO IT.
Ok I solved the issue.
Thanks
Good device BTW. Good job!
I used a usb stick with ubuntu 22.04 on it. This can be booted in live-mode and you do not need to change your computer for it.
The instructions from @wataiso were very helpful and instrumental in bringing back my bricked princube. @davidanger you find all the needed files on the releases page. It is a bit scattered, though. Under 4.33 / 4.16 you can also find the burn tool for ubuntu and windows (cloner-2.5.10....). And you also find the cloner_fw_... files there (and in newer releases).
