Restore 1100

Hello!
My device broke, restoring from usb does not help, it shows this message:

How to restore functionality?

[PhoneBoy]

If the unit is under an active support agreement you might need an RMA.
Which precise firmware version did you try to load via USB?

[conroe]

I tried about 10 firmwares R71, R75, R77. They only restore the busybox environment. A memory dump of a similar device can help me, I can restore the destroyed partitions. Unfortunately, there is no support, a friend gave me the device.

Actually, the firmware load should do a lot more than just restore the busybox environment, it should restore the software/partitions.
If the firmware you have access to is not at least R77.20.15, you’ll run into this issue, which has a relatively simple fix: https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solut...

If you can do a firmware restore with USB and provide the console output while this is taking place, we might be able to assist.
However, I suspect you have bad flash, in which case there’s probably not much that can be done short of an RMA.

No obvious errors during the flash process.
If the device were under support, I’d say it qualifies for an RMA.
Without a support contract, and especially without access to the latest firmware (the build you used is quite old), there’s probably not a ton you can do here.

[conroe]

A person with a similar device, who could dump file system partitions to a USB flash drive, will help a lot.
