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.

I am not sure if I understand You correctly (german language I translate via translator), but Yes I use OTG reduction with three different USB sticks(512MB, 6GB, 8GB) all formated as FAT

do You think will be good to try use USB HUB?

tablet->OTG->USB HUB->USB Stick

No, not seriously. Did you use an USB-hub flashing the recovery-package?

Here in your flash failure-protocol it says "error":

error: cannot load '/efilinux-.efi': No such file or directory

I think the error text should be:
error: cannot load '/efilinux-user.efi': No such file or directory

That is maybe the reason für your bootorder-error; the efilinux-user.efi file was never found nor flashed, because the flash.sh looks instead for the  "/efilinux-user .efi" for the "/efilinux- .efi" ?

 

The flash.sh says:

 "./fastboot flash osloader $OUT/efilinux-$TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT.efi"

Did you mess around with the " $OUT/efilinux-$TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT.efi" line, and gave this the possible wrong error-text? Or is the efilinux-path wrongly written??

 

(Although later on the esp.zip is flashed, which also contains the identical files in  Boot/ bootx64.efi and in /Intel/efilinux.efi; but do not know if bin the same position.

 

May be @TheDoctor could check this

if You will read mentioned thread completely, You will see, that I solved this problem about load necessary files.

in the script is something wrong with variable $OUT

I could also try windows version 😞

Off course I read. Otherwise I couldn't have noticed the missing "user" in error-text:

"error: cannot load '/efilinux-.efi': No such file or directory"

The  $TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT isn't replaced by "user" in error. Should it be?

Like I said in the beginning, I do not know much about Linux or Android.

May be by replacing standard $OUT with your long path-name (too long?) you made an error or typo?

 

And yes, reflashing the recovery-package in Windows you should try; but for safety reason make a new download before.
