Re: Question on UART,TTL,Serial and USB to Serial Cable to R

You may want to get a multimeter and verify that RX/TX are communicating at 3.3v, a lot of the USB TTL setups I've seen are 5v so after verifying that you'll also want to make sure that you're serial settings are set at 9600 baud with 8-N-1 (8 data bits, no parity bits 1 stop bit).

Thanks,

Re: Can I install the Honeycomb Beta on a non rooted device?

Hello, I ordered the Revue and received it a week ago. Still have not powered it on to avoid the patch that removes the ability to reach the root console. I have opened the review and looked at the UART port. I can get a USB to serial convertor cheap around the corner. But my soldering skills are l...

Re: How can you tell if a used Revue is rootable?

Hi all, I know that a Revue has to be a "virgin" (aka: no updates were applied to it) in order to not have the UART1 pins disabled but there are a few postings on craigslist where the owners say that the Revue was "only used once", so I was wondering (1) if it's possible that th...

Re: accessing recovery mode/receiving OTA's with the 3.1 bet

Tried hdmi in/out sequence without any luck. I see also that there is a serial terminal interface on the board. I will hook it up and see if any info is being printed. Connected the serial interface and tried various boots but it is dead. Anyone have know a way to sniff comms with a usb drive? I wo...

Re: Faulty box?

How long are you holding down the "pair" button for? Long enough for the box to reboot itself and the splash screen reappear again (around 10 secs or so). I've also tried powering it on with the button down (saw this mentioned on Logitech forum) but get the same results. Just wanted to ma...

Re: NAND Flash question

Following your progess. I envy your desoldering toys and debugging tools. Lacking those tools, can't help (yet). I thought cefdk files were encrypted. Did you find they were still encrypted in NAND? The update: 439c26f6af05.mp-signed-ota_update-b39389.zip (a proper link can be found on the wiki) ha...

Re: Faulty box?

I tried a different TV and get exactly the same result, namely the "Logitech Revue with Google TV" screen is displayed perfectly within a couple of seconds and then it just sits there and nothing else happens. If I put my ear to the box I can hear the fan working and attaching a network c...

Re: Set-top box adding issue

To everyone having this issue, it looks like to me that Logitech takes their "beta" servers down at night. I was having this issue after entering recovery around 12-1am CST. Tried again this afternoon (12pm CST) and it worked fine. Just a heads up to anyone experiencing this problem. Thank...

Re: Faulty box?

That is correct, also I'd be surprised if you couldn't get recovery to come up on a new box. Try another TV and report back here if you don't mind.

Thanks,

Re: Netflix on a rooted 2.1 not working

Glad to see its working, if someone finds a somewhat easy way to do this it may be nice if they could make a tutorial for other windows users.

Thanks,
