Onn 8" Tablet Bricked.

[m19d85]

My friend gave me his seemingly bricked tablet. The screen is black, no activity at all on the screen. When I plug it into my computer Windows chimes so apparently it recognizes the tablet is connected. I downloaded SP Flash Tool to try to reflash the firmware, but it gives me an error.

error status_brom_cmd_startcmd_da_fail

0xC0060001

Does anyone have any ideas on how to re-flash this? I'd greatly appreciate any help at all.

From One moment, please...

Error 0xC0060001​

Message: BROM ERROR: S_BROM_CMD_STARTCMD_FAIL (0xC0060001)

Meaning: The device attempted to power on before SP flash tool could flash files to it

Solution:

• The device might require a custom Download Agent (DA) to be flashed
• Go to Options > Option > Connection and set connection to USB high speed auto detect. Only choose UART when you have a device detected in the chosen UART port
• Ensure the battery is well charged
• Take out and reinsert the battery
• Try using a different USB cord, port and PC
• Right-click flash_tool.exe > Select Properties > Select Compatibility > Set to Windows XP Service Pack 3 > Click Apply > Click OK > Run SP flash tool as Administrator
• Try a different USB cord
• Try a different port on the PC or another PC
• Ensure the battery is well changed and inside the switched off phone before connecting to PC for flashing
• Do not hold any button when connecting to PC

As for the tablet itself, I don't think there's much hope for it.
