EFI Boot Fix - doesn't help

Hello,

I have the known problem where a tablet boots into efi shell. So I try to use EFI Boot Fix .

Flash drive is formated as fat32, EFI Bott Fix files are placed on the flash drive. I connect the FlashDrive via OTG to tablet and powerOn the tablet.

The result is, that tablet doesn't start Android OS and again do the same problem. I captured a screenshot from the tablet durring the fixing process.

May be try with a smaller USB-Stick (512 MB or 1 GB), and / or try Fat 16, although Fat 32 did work with other machines.

ok....I destroyed partition on the USB Flash stick (6GB) and created there just one 512MB as FAT16,

placed there the boot fix files and again repeat the process...result is same as before.

Do You think, that the USB Flash stick have to be physical size max 1GB ? 

thnx Regards ZAJDAN

Ok, try it with a small Fat 32 - Partition also. Maybe the 6 GB-Stick-Controller isn't compatible. I have no idea.

As I said, I woud try with a smaller Stick max. 4 Gb, and test it again with Fat 32; 

 

regards, daddle

Friend borrowed me old USB Stick 512MB. I tried it with FAT16 and also with FAT32 ->result--->same problem presists 😞

Seems, that EFI is broken.

I disconnected the USB and boot into efi shell to try display internal volume

Shell>vol   vol: 'NULL' is not mapped

it doesn't looks nice

You should ask a Mod, @TheDoctor or @Luke; I can not help you with your problem.

Regards, daddle

 

Edit: They should also read the flash-history for the recovery-package

Ich bin etwas überfragt. Welches Gerät ist es denn überhaupt? Liegen die Dateien an der richtigen Stelle?

Stick ist halbwegs unkritisch. Sollte nur möglichst einfach partitioniert (ideal: 1 primäre Partition) und formatiert (VFAT) sein.

 Dass er die Dateien bootorder.bin und startup.nsh  nach dem Entpacken in das Wurzelverzeichnis kopiert habe ich angenommen.

Hast Du den Stick mit einem USB-Host-Adapter, auch OTG-(On the Go)-Adapter genannt angeschlossen? War ein solcher bei dem Tab mitgeliefert?

 

Gruss, daddle
