Orin Nano Dev Kit black screen fan stops working. Qspi ruined?

[camilo.gabriel]

Hello,

I just got my Jetson Orin Nano a week ago. It is currently not booting at all (not even to the Nvidia screen), and the fan stops (look video)

I followed the instructions on this site to get it up to speed:
get-started-jetson-orin-nano-devkit

I followed the instructions until this part:

In my configuration, for some reason, it said:

Current bootloader slot: B.
Active bootloader slot: B

Also, this command did not work (it said apt-get could not find the package)
sudo apt-get install nvidia-l4t-jetson-orin-nano-qspi-updater

Looking for solutions to update the jetpack version, I followed the answer to this procedure: this question on the forum (TLDR: download manually QSPI updater 36 and installing it)

After that, I rebooted my jetson but it would not BOOT AT ALL

• I tried flashing an sd with Jetpack 5.13
• I tried flashing an sd with Jetpack 60
• booting with no sd
• I tried connecting with serial interface following this Youtube tutorial but I cant send anything.
  My logs of the serial interface are attached.

What can I do to fix my jetson? Is there anything I can do?

Hi camilo.gabriel,

E> Cannot find partition B_spe-fw
E> Partition B_spe-fw not found
E> MB2_FW_LOAD: Failed to load FW.
C> Task 0x0 failed (err: 0x224d090d)
E> Top caller module: LOADER, error module: PARTITION_MANAGER, reason: 0x0d, aux_info: 0x09

From the log you shared, it seems you boot failed in MB2.

Can you just try using SDK Manager or initrd flash script to flash your devkit to recover?

Hi Kevin,
As you mentioned, I tried the SDK manager and it re flashed my device and it worked!! I did have to get hold of a computer with Ubuntu 22 for this to work.

Thanks a lot!
