One of my Jetson TX2 developer board which was working fine so far does not boot at all now, seems like an early boot failure. The console does not show anything. The unit did boot up in Force Recovery mode and I initiated flashing using the flash.sh script (JetPack 3.2.1), it continued flashing for a while and then failed with these messages on the console -
[1465.233] I> BR-BCT relocated to 0xd7020000
Searched for this error and found someone reported the exact same issue few months ago -https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1037473/jetson-tx2/cannot-flash-emmc-gt-error-opening-sdmmc-3/
Questions :
Do we have any more information on what is causing this failure ?
Is there a way to recover this unit at my end or do I have to return with RMA info ?
What was your exact command line for the flash?

Here it is :
Thanks
This may be an actual failure. Any kind of flash attempt could have already changed eMMC content and invalidated current partitions, but I suspect partitions are still intact even if data has changed. What you might consider doing is attempting to clone the rootfs. I don’t say this for reasons of backup…any backup at this stage is likely pointless. However, reading eMMC in recovery mode might demonstrate part of the system functioning (parts which have fewer requirements than writing). Should the clone fail, then it is probably further evidence of actual hardware failure.
A clone can take a lot of space (it is an entire eMMC for the most part), so you might want to make sure your host has at least 35GB (or more) of free space wherever you clone (and that will be where the flash.sh script exists). The command “df -H /where/ever/you/clone” will provide that information for you. Details for cloning depend on release, but since you mention JetPack3.2.1 I am going to assume it is a recent release.
The Jetson would need to be put into recovery mode (and if any other operation was attempted, then put freshly back into recovery mode for each new command, e.g., you can’t clone twice without reentering recovery mode between attempts) and connected to the host via the micro-B USB cable. Verify “lsusb -d -0955:7c18” shows the recovery mode Jetson. Then, where your flash.sh exists:
sudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP -G my_backup.img jetson-tx2 mmcblk0p1
Some errors might exist which are not part of failed hardware, but I suspect any error from hardware failure would be more obvious than something like not finding a partition. If you can’t clone, then chances are RMA will be the only option.

Tried what you suggested and it failed.
Here are the console messages :

It sounds like even basic read of eMMC is failing. It is probably time to RMA. For RMA information you can search for “RMA” near the top of this:https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/793798/embedded-systems/some-jetson-web-links/[/url]

Thank You. Will start with RMA procedure.
