| |
| − | You can first try to reinstall the bootloader, which will keep all data intact, but if the issue is somewhere else the MOD will continue to not boot.<br/>
| |
| − | This is the best option, if it works. (and applies to your unit, of course)<br/>
| |
| − | If that does not work, you can perform a factory reset, which will erase all your data.

| − | '''For all Duo models:'''<br/>
| |
| − | You can reinstalling the OS over USB, optionally formatting/reset the user data partition as well.<br/>

| |
| − | | |
| − | To begin:
| |
| − | # Click and hold down the FEL button on the back of the MOD Duo (in tiny hole), while you power it on.
| |
| − | # Hold it for 2 seconds, then release (The screens will freeze with the MOD logo and name)
| |
| − | # Connect the MOD Duo to your computer via USB cable
| |
| − | # Download https://github.com/moddevices/CT_NandBoot/archive/master.zip and extract it
| |
| − | # Open a terminal and 'cd' to the directory where master.zip was extracted, ie:
| |
| − | <code language="console">cd ~/Downloads/CT_NandBoot-master/</code>
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you're running '''macOS''', run:<br/>
| |
| − | <code language="console">./bootfix.osx</code><br/>
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you're running '''Linux''' 64bit, run:<br/>
| |
| − | <code language="console">./bootfix</code><br/>
| |
| − | (sudo will likely be needed here)
| |
| − | | |
| − | For non-64bit Linux systems, run 'make clean' and 'make' beforehand.
| |
| − | | |
| − | After the command finishes running, just power the MOD off and on again.<br/>
| |
| − | If it still doesn't boot after 2 minutes, a factory reset or OS reinstall via USB is needed.

| |
| − | # Wait until the 'bootfix' process finishes
| |
| − | # Power off and on the MOD Duo (by replugging the power cable)
| |
| − | # Wait until its LEDs turn blue, after around 30 seconds. If the LEDs don't light up after one minute, replug the power cable once again
| |
| − | # Wait until the LEDs turn red, then green. This should take around 10 minutes.

| − | Once the LEDs are green, the MOD Duo has finished its factory reset.<br/>

| |
| − | If the LEDs are still blue for too long (actually they go to red and then return to blue) or the display shows the message "copy file, eject and unplug", please execute all this process again starting from the bootfix command.

| |
| − | ''It is not possible to tell which kinda unit it is just by looking at it externally, so if the command with "MARS" does not work for you, try the one without and vice-versa.)''
