Recovery mode

I foot my su pw.

I would like to switch to recovery mode.

I am pressing a holding the middle button and then pressing a holding the left.

The nano is not going to recovery, only the led is Turing on.

Can I get some help?

Best,

Hi,

May I know whether your device is an AGX Orin, Orin Nano, or Jetson Nano, since your topic is set to AGX Orin.
After putting the device in recovery mode, you could check using the lsusb

Thanks

I am using the Jetson AGX ORION developer kit

The problem is the device is not set to recovery mode. I did this


and

FYI,

My host computer is Windows 11.

Hi,

Have you installed the SDK Manager and checked if the application can detect the device in recovery mode?

Thanks

Yes,

I have installed SDK manager for Windows.
I tried the steps when the device is off and other steps when it is off. Note, have sent you the steps in a previous message.
But the device is not starting as recovery
mode. All what happened is the led light turn on next to the 3 buttons.

Hi,

In this case, we suggest to prepare a native ubuntu 20.04 later and install sdk manager to flash the device since ubuntu is more stable method.

Thanks

Is switching to recovery mode required to have an Ubuntu connected with the SDK?

Recovery mode temporarily turns the Jetson into a custom USB device. This means it needs a custom USB driver, and the recovery mode Jetson is not a simple mass storage device. The flash software is that custom USB driver in combination with commands for making changes, and flash cannot occur except over the correct USB to the Linux host PC (whether in Docker, a VM, or natively). An actual flash mandates the recovery mode or the drivers won’t function.

Thank you.
Now, I am getting to the recovery mode. It is when the led is white and no fan.
With Windows WSL, with NVIDIA SDK, I was able to reach the point of downloading the OS and started flashing, but it always fails at 1%. I have a Jetson Nano Developer, but it seems it will not handle the process well in terms of memory since it has 8GB of RAM.
Can you provide me with a specific path to solve this problem?.
Best,

Just want to clarify because what you are doing here is not quite clear

  1. This is Orin AGX forum. Not sure why you mentioned a Jetson Nano.

  2. Jeton Nano does not have a 8GB DRAM. Only a Jetson Orin Nano has. These two are different.

You better clarifying what is the exact platform you are running there because the answer to your question would vary.

Incidentally, “Nano” is just a small form factor. The original Nano was a TX1, and there are several generations, each being different, but called “Nano”. For example, just “Nano” is TX1, there is Xavier Nano, Orin Nano, and maybe in the future Thor Nano? The AGX is the full sized kit, not small form factor. If this is Orin Nano, then it goes here:

There is a second small form factor which is higher performance, the NX (same story where there are multiple generations called NX; these are the same size and basic layout of the ordinary Nano, just improved performance).

JetPack/SDK Manager has an ability to export logs. You might want to attach the log export. Incidentally, once you use WSL or any VM one of the highest failure rates is from the environment not properly passing through USB. During a flash USB will disconnect and reconnect, and often configuration lacks what is needed to reconnect (such flashes start out working then fail during the flash).

Thank you,
After 20-30 attempts using WSL I was able to flash the AGX.
Now I have access to a new os.
Thank you all for your response
