Install Tools&Drivers
Please check this guide, Install rockchip flash tools under Windows/Linux/MacOS PC.
Boot the board to maskrom mode
Note that Radxa E23 OTG port consists of PIN#18, PIN#16, PIN#14 adn PIN#2 on the 40-pin Header.
To boot Radxa E23 E into maskrom mode is simple, you need to
- Remove MicroSD
- Remove Type-C adapter
- Remove PoE Hat
- Plug the USB Male A to Dupont cable to Radxa E23 OTG port, the other side to PC. Only use three Dupont wires (Dara+, Data-, GND).
- Press and hold the golden maskrom button next to wireless module. Press and hold the golden button next to spi nor flash.
- Plug the Red Dupont wire to PIN#2 of 40-pin header on Radxa E23.
- Release two golden buttons
Now on your Linux PC, lsusb command show show the following usb devices
Bus 001 Device 112: ID 2207:350a Fuzhou Rockchip Electronics Company
It means the device is in maskrom mode now.
Install to eMMC via USB
On your PC, run the rkdeveloptool
rkdeveloptool ld DevNo=1 Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x350a,LocationID=104 Maskrom
Download the loader (flash helper) to init the ram and prepare the flashing environment etc. If you don't have it, you can download it from here
rkdeveloptool db rk356x_spl_loader_ddr1056_v1.06.110.bin
Write the GPT image to eMMC, start to write from offset 0. For example.
rkdeveloptool wl 0 /path/to/radxa-e23-xxx-gpt.img
Please note that you can use zero.img instead of radxa-e23-xxx-gpt.img when erasing eMMC on board.
Reboot the device
rkdeveloptool rd
Now the device should boot the new image on eMMC.
