Guide - How to fix/resurrect a bricked Shield (and updated to 1.51SP1 w/Feb & March 2016 hotfixes & fw_upgrade 8.3.1)

Hi Roadrunner :)

I did email you but not heard back. Guess it never arrived. I had searched the forum but could only find "Itusrestoreimage" and not "ItusrouterImage" if you could email the file that would be great ;)

Thanks
rah

Hi rah

The ItusrestoreImage is what creates the other image files if i remember right but you might have to look through old posting. if you have ItusrestoreImage

you should do the following

ON the Shield

mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /factory_reset

cd /factory_reset

rm ItusrouterImage

rm ItusbridgeImage

rm ItusgatewayImage

cp ItusrestoreImage ItusrouterImage

cp ItusrestoreImage ItusgatewayImage

cp ItusrestoreImage ItusbridgeImage
cd /

umount /factory_reset

now if you restart the shield  it will make a new image for each of the modes, this  can take up to 10 minute do NOT NOT switch off, so got have a tea.

Hope this helps

I have no files on my Shield. Am able to get to stage 3 but get the following error when transferring the ItusrestoreImage

Why isn't the ItusrouterImage file hosted somewhere? It seems I am able to ping my FTP server but the transfer craps out after 20 seconds or so and then cycles through each of the interfaces.  Any ideas?

itusrestoreimage is hosted: http://itus.accessinnov.com/Upgrade-to-1-51SP1-td10.html

That will restore all three modes

THanks

I am able to transfer ItusRestoreImage to the device but when I attempt to execute the next step it gets stuck at "initializing cache"

Should I be able to see the file with "fatls mmc 1" after tftping it?

When you say it goes in a loop, do you mean restart?

If the Shield restarts its because your using the wrong version on one of the files you have downloaded, as it's been sometimes since needing to go into the inner working for the Shield i've forgotten which files, but i did reply to someone on this forum how to get over this and included the files needed.
