Ok, something is definately fishy around here - I reflashed the freshly downloaded qi ( s3c2442 is correct for the GTA2, right? ) with a fresh dfu-util on another PC and get the same result - no more boots at all, only after 1h of toggling battery and/or cable NOR came up once more .<br>

inherited PMU<br>

<br></div>
The only paths into screwing up NOR boot I can imagine would be boot<br>
itself getting trashed via PMU somehow or the GSTATUS2 / 3 being set<br>
making it look like resume with bogus resume address. But if it existed<br>
I would expect to have seen that after some hundreds of<br>
boot-NOR/flash-Qi/test/boot-NOR/flash-Qi cycles here, and NOR boot has<br>
always been as reliable as my power arrangements.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>What I did notice, that the same sound (like a one time click in the speaker) that occurs on battery insertion also can be heard on normal boots, be it NOR or NAND, whenever the power button is pressed - with the failed qi flash, I never heard that sound again on button presses! <br>
<br>Also, a colleague had the same issue of no possibility to boot without having flashed u-boot, and it also only went away after changing batteries, charging and basically expecting to play around with what might be a brick for a good hour or longer...<br>

is implicated... of course that's not much of an explanation either.</blockquote><div><br>Could it be there is a general issue with the power on bootup that is triggered by qi on my FR ? Any ideas what else to try ? I'll gladly supply you with any further information you might need.<br>
