Error after flashing System Image via TFlash on Windows PC

Issues
1

Hello,

I recently downloaded the RUBIK Pi 3 Linux System Image ver 1.0 zip file and flashed it using the TFlash method on my Windows PC, following the instructions provided in the “Get Started” manual.

The flashing process appeared to complete successfully. The log output showed the following messages:

20250423_12:06:04_652 Base Version: 19.06.10.18.44
20250423_12:06:05_796 [INFO] : Finish Download]
20250423_12:06:05_797 [INFO] : Download Succeed]
20250423_12:06:05_797 [INFO] : Waiting for reset done...]
20250423_12:06:05_846 Base Version: 19.06.10.18.44

However, after reconnecting the power and plugging in HDMI to check the output, nothing shows up on the monitor. Also, I noticed that the green RGB LED is not pulsing, which normally indicates boot activity.

Before this flashing attempt, the default Linux OS that came with the board was working fine — HDMI output was functional. But ever since I flashed ver 1.0 via TFlash, I can no longer see any output, and the board seems to be unresponsive.

Additionally, when I attempted to flash Debian 13 or Linux System Image ver 1.1 via TFlash, the process failed completely with this error:

[ERR : Download Rawprogram err ...]

At this point, I just want to restore the Rubik Pi 3 to a working state, with a proper OS installed that shows HDMI output again. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Please refer to the content under ’ 1.3.3.1 .2 Fix boot failures after flashing’ in the provided link to provision the UFS again.

I attempted to follow the TFlash flashing procedure, but after flashing, the device did not boot and instead began to heat up noticeably. I then tried to enter EDL mode again using the EDL button, as I had done previously, but now the device does not enter EDL mode at all.
