erase is always necessary?

This is JTAG to debrick any JTAG device. Modem, cable boxes, dish boxes routers.

erase is always necessary?

Post by softrend »

I have a bricked DCT700, It takes a lot to erase (flash), then when I do a sprogram, makes overly fast.
Question: I can Erase->Power off dct700-> unplug USBJTAG-> close software->plug USBJTAG, execute software-> turn on DCT700->detect->load flash, then sprogram 90000000 400000?
or erase/sprogram must be en the same session?

Erase and sprogram can be in different session. But erase must executed before sprogram.
After sprogram the boot you should be able to use fast programming (reboot is needed).

He means remove power from the DCT700, then plug it back in. That is what reboot means in this case.

Once the boot is flashed slowly and correctly, then you can program the device at normal speed (after you reboot the DCT700), meaning you will not have to use sprogram once it is done right.
