Ip406 ds stuck in boot loop 2

[Manie3]

Hi All

Had a phone system stuck in boot loop. Version 3.1. Made a simple name change and then it all went tits up. Tried breaking the boot cycle with dte cable and using the esc to be able to run a at-x but couldn't get to the boot loader. I'm going to swap out the system but thought I'd post this to see if I could get any words of wisdom.

It is broken for sure.
It is time for an upgrade to a new IP500v2 i guess.

BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

firmware corrupt
if you can get into the boot loader then you may be able to recover it but it could be an indication that the flash memory is failing so probably not to be trusted ayway


Do things on the cheap & it will cost you dear

Hi IPGuru

i was unable to break into the boot loader menu so can officially say this one is dead. Will be upgrading them to V2 soon so all good

Thank you

I had an issue where I had to try to get into the firmware for over an hour until it finally worked.
Was my first IPO that I bought on ebay because someone bricked it and it was really cheap

You might want to keep trying for a bit and do the old "rinse and repeat" cycle until you get tired of it

@Westi thanks. I'll be bringing it back home with me so I'll give it a try. Will keep you posted.

Should of realised it was going be a nightmare when the secrurityresetall returned ERROR rather than the Mac address.

While booting repeatedly press the escape key will stop the bootloader to load the firmware and then you can perform a AT-X to eraase the corrupted firmware.

Does not work on IP500 though

I assumed Manie3 knew how to press the escape key

Since I joined TEK-Tips in 2004 I never assume the poster knows the obviuos, have been disappointed too many times.

I sat next to @Manie3 for a year and he never failed to surprise me! (Not always in a good way)

It was funny picking on Manie when he was in the same room, seems harsh to do it so publicly Smash
