Same here,

HI10 bricked after BIOS update from Windows manager.

Waiting for the tools. Will report back.

Thank you very much for sharing the procedure to reprogram the BIOS IC.

HI10 x64 with blue USB 3.0 connector had erratic behaviour on arrival (black screen after suspend, some windows closing and some blue exception screens), so I tried to update drivers…and the Tablet was bricked by the BIOS update refered in other threads (it looks like it downloaded a Teclast image and flashed it). It also has at least two dead pixels on screen, but not too annoying.

Now the red led blinks when powered on. Waiting for the tools to arrive to reflash the SPI BIOS.

I had another Chuwi Android Tablet I was very happy with, but I think this will be my latest Chuwi product. Even if I recover the BIOS, the Tablet may have a hardware issue, as I don’t think it came from Factory with the wrong drivers.

Thanks for the advice, although is too late for me. My 3 days old HI10 is bricked (red led blinking when powered on).

Is posible to recover the BIOS without opening the Tablet?

Is not, is there a dedicated connector for flashing the IC, or the only method is using a test clip?

Could someone confirm if the model with the blue USB 3.0 connector uses 1.8V SPI flash or the 3.3V one?

Thank you!
