Hi Nikolaus,

 

How did you damage it ? That is not easy. 

 

- You could try the reset button at bottom. If you are lucky your jz4730 was 
only stuck and will be able to boot again.

 

Some other info and hints:

- Could be the LPC915F MCU is companion for boot ?

- Check some debug info on simular debug boards 
ftp://ftp.ingenic.cn/4hw/01_DEV_board/DB4730_Libra/DB4730_Libra-SW-EN.pdf

- Flashing yourself via JTAG could be difficult, because you need to have some 
flasher tool and the original uboot. 

Check ingenic manual.

- Ask on dutch forum for http://trendtac.hyves.nl/ 

- Login to irc.freenode.net #mipsbook ask person there. 

 

Hopefully you'll fix it.

 

Grt Ruben.
