haroo Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 OK, I'm pretty experienced with the wifi pineapple and Linux in general I'm no expert but i can get around and do what i need to do. that said. i recently pulled my MKV out and dusted it off. I had stole the sdcard for another project at some point. i booted the mkv up and all i got was solid green and flashing blue light. i let it flash blue all night and same thing in the morning. i rebooted. same. i found a 2gb sdcard, i formatted it FAT put it in the MKV, put dip #5 down and booted up hooked to my PC with an ip address of 192.168.1.2. i http://192.168.1.1and get the recovery page. i downloaded the proper factory bin and it went too 100% and told me to flip my dip back up and reboot, so i did.. reboots to blinking blue. things i have tried -format the sdcard EXT4- still blinks blue for hours after the reboot -let it sit after loading the bin for it to get the happy light sequence - still blinks blue forever. - tried to power off my batt - still blinks blue for days - tried a different power supply 9v 1A = 9 watts should be good right? - tried an 8gb class10 sdcard - same after changing each variable i followed the unbrick process with no success. i have read a similar thread on the same issue and the admin said the answer was in the FAQ. if it is i'm blind or retarded. Thanks for the help Haroo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
