Flashed TonieBox 3200, but no Box is found

Toniebox Hardware CC3200 (V1, V2)
1

Hi,
i try it in english.
I tried to flash my tonieBox3200 with the preloader ein new Bootloader as in the description. First i made 2 Backups with the backup.bin > 4Kb.
I downloaded the newest Version of the bootloader and extracted it to my operating folder.
i renamed the mcuimg.bin to pre-img.bin and copied it to the flash folder /flash/pre-img.bin. i was not sure, if this is right.
I made backups of my mcuimg.bin and then i did the next Command

cc3200tool -p COM5 --reset dtr write_file ExtractedFromBox/sys/mcuimg.bin /sys/pre-img.bin

Commands pass with no errors
NExt Command - Preloader install with no error

cc3200tool -p COM5 --reset dtr write_file flash/sys/mcuimg.bin /sys/mcuimg.bin

I then installed the bootloader by copy the revvox folder from sd to the sd-card and renaming my mcuimg.bin backup that it is in this folder sd:/revvox/boot/ng-ofw1.bin. 

I downloaded the "Ersatzzertifikat" and i load my three cer-files up to the teddyCloud

i then flashed the "Ersatzzertifikat" with no errors
cc3200tool -p COM5 --reset dtr write_file c2.der /cert/c2.der

I tried to find the TB in the TeddyCloud, but nothing to see. 
I tried a freshness check. Now the Box is blinking blue, when i press one ear. 2 Short blinks, 3 Long Blinks and then very fast blinking and its off again.

I think i must have done something wrong. My Children wont be happy about that. Has anyone an idea, how i can fix this to the good?

If i am not able to fix it, how do i get my backup.bin back to flash, so my kids can still use the TB with the custom Tags?

Best regards and thank for helping

I flashed the backup.bin back and then i restarted the hole process. I made some mistakes in the forst round and hopefully now i understand what i have to do.
I set ```
“activeImg”: “ofw2”,

for the TeddiCloud- Firmware.

Now the TonieBox starts normal with "Hello ... " and it wants WLAN. 
I gave WLAN to the Box and codeword "Ant" was named. So WLAN works, but Internet wont. I guess this is good. 
But still i cant find the Box in the TeddyCloud. Could it be, that my AdGuard makes Problems?

Best regards and hopefully someone can help me,
Sebastian

Sorry for spamming so much. I was a little desperate, cause i thought i have crashed my TonieBox. It is just not as easy as i thought.
At least now it seems running with the preloader.

So far i changed activeImg”: “ofw2" back to activeImg”: “ofw1", so the standard firmware starts. My kids are able to play their custom tags again.

If anyone knows, how i may get the teddyCloud firmware with TonieCloud Running or how to debug the problems, feel free to help me :wink:

You might post the config at least. Because all the details are missing.

Hello,
the tutorial to flash the box with the pre- and bootloader is very straight forward. After this i am missing some tutorials or steps that explain how i get the CFW started. I downloaded a CFW from nightly and renamed it to ng-cfw1.bin in the boot folder. But i am not sure how to start this FW or how to set it up in the CFG-Files.

this is my hackiebox.config.json

^{“version”:7,“battery”:{“voltageFactor”:27850,“lowAdc”:9658,“criticalAdc”:8869,“sleepMinutes”:15},“buttonEars”:{“longPressMs”:1000,“veryLongPressMs”:10000},“wifi”:{“ssid”:"“,“password”:”"},“log”:{“sdLog”:false},“misc”:{“autodump”:false,“swd”:false,“watchdogSeconds”:10}}

and this is my ngCfg.json

You start still ofw2. Change the activeImg to cfw1. After restart, the light of the toniebox should change color continuously

If you renamed a file, you did something wrong. Only extract the zip onto the microSD

For selecting the slots, see

Thanks. i found the toniebox ip with the cfw1 and could connect to the hackiebox webinterface. I uploaded the ca.der again and now i find my toniebox in the teddycloud :slight_smile:
Now i can relax a little and try to understand and learn all the features.
It is a long journey but thanks to your help and work the sound of my custom Tonies surround me all the time :slight_smile:
