Downloaded JP 5.0.2. Still totally same issue as this one, please advise Orin System Image Restore failure
The only difference from last time is that if I wait for like 40 mins, I’ll get such error. But i’m not sure if this is a different cus for the old one I probably never waited it for more than 40 mins.
Is this really an Orin? I see a reference to a t186 which is older tech a TX2). Only Xavier and Orin are supported for that particular release.
I’m sure this is an Orin. This is the picture of the hardware. we bought them from official channels. i don’t think people can easily fake this lol.
Hi @carolyuu , please check the original post link i shared. The steps are totally the same. The only difference is the L4T version. The only difference is in this screenshot. I changed the R34.1.1 to R35.1
Is there any updates on this issue? sorry my project timeline is a bit tight here and it’s depending on this right now. Really appreciate
Sorry, once i updated the file with this patch, i need to backup the image again with this new script and then I flash correct?
I backup the image again with the patch added into the script, but it’s still the same.
I observed the two clone.img file size and it seems they are the same. Not sure if this is correct.
so clone.img is the old one. clone1.img is the one i backed up after I added the patch.
And here is the modified script. could you help to see if it’s correct too?

Some more details. After modifying this script, i rerun
sudo ./apply_binaries.sh
Then I ran this to backup again
sudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP -G clone1.img jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1
Then I copy this clone1.img to bootloader/system.img
Then i ran
sudo ./flash.sh -r jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1
Finally it hangs in the same place
Hi ysyyork,
After apply the patch, please full flash your Orin device first.
Then start backup and restore image.
$ sudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP -G clone.img jetson-xavier mmcblk0p1
$ cd bootloader/
$ mv system.img system.img-backup
$ cp ../clone.img system.img
$ sudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP jetson-xavier mmcblk0p1
ok let me try
sorry, i tested wrongly just now. Actually there is still problem (i didn’t copy paste the backup clone image to system.img, that’s why i thought it worked.)
To make it more clear, this is what I did
sudo ./apply_binaries.sh
sudo ./flash.sh jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1 to flash the original systemsudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP -G clone3.img jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1 to back upsudo cp clone3.img bootloader/system.imgsudo ./flash.sh -r jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1Then it gets stucked.
Did more experiment. Right now there is one setup that can work but it’s still not working perfectly for my use case.
There were some mistakes above.
-k APP. Otherwise it will still stuck.Now i can make it work only in one scenario:
sudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1
If i don’t have one system already on the device, if I just run sudo ./flash.sh -r jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1 or sudo ./flash.sh -r -k APP jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1. None of them works. Both of them will stuck at the place where the script tried to flash the system.img into the device forever. This is still not ideal in my case cus this means I need to flash twice for mass production for each device. Please advise.
Another finding on top of this. The patch actually doesn’t help anything. I tried again without this patched file and it’s the same as the above reply. I can only use -k APP to flash with a pre-flashed device and that can work. Other than that, nothing works.
Hi ysyyork,
please check your clone.img size, how much of it?
Do the exact sizes of “clone.img.raw” and “clone1.img.raw” match?
ls -l clone.img.raw clone1.img.raw
I want to add that although if you copy the raw image to “system.img” for flash the flash will take much longer, but doing so bypasses any raw->sparse->raw conversion, and might be useful as the source of flash. This flash takes longer, but is the simplest case, so it is worth testing if it differs.
This is the clone.img with that patched file:
This is the clone.img without that patched file:
