Wetek Core NAND install - now bricked

  • Followed the NAND install instructions - ended up with the old problem:

    can't access tty: job control turned off

    I found another thread which advised removing the following code:

    --wipe_data

    --wipe_cache

    I did this and tried again.

    Now when i boot with toothpick I only get to the Android recovery screen and have a message at the bottom

    E: Cannot Load Volume /misc!

    I've tried all the menu options from here and am completely stuck.

    Is my box dead?

  • Insert your installation SD-card and in recovery menu select "apply update from EXT->Update from sdcard", then select the LibreELEC-WeTek_Core.arm-8.0.2-update.zip. After install is complete also run "wipe data/factory reset" from recovery menu. Then reboot.

  • should have said - i tried that too but I get this:

    E:failed to mount /sdcard (no such file or directory)

    is my SD card not formatted correctly - it's Fat 32 and has the following

    LibreELEC-WeTek_Core.arm-8.0.2-update.zip

    factory_update_param.aml

    recovery.img

    What do I need to do to make the box see the card?

  • OK - Got it now!!

    Tried various tools to format the memory card - ended up using a USB stick instead - worked no problem!

    Not quite sure about your step to wipe data and factory reset as that just puts me back where I was.

    However watching live TV streaming from TVheadend as we speak.
