If I tap Ambarella on advanced board with putty it gives this output not sure it tells us much on the pro board there is no output at all.Yes.
Though the wiki says you will have access to 'sys', which does not run on Linux. So no idea which commands will work:
o-gs/dji-firmware-tools

So I need to work out how to program ambarella nand while it’s onboard if possible. So find the wiki on the a7 and hope the a9 is similar.
This is from RC forum translated from Polish is go pro hacking software going to be a help or is this referring to a different part of the software.Yep. What I was able to find is only:
A7L / A7L(M) RM: System Hardware
But there's also:
A7L Chip Datasheet
A7L Hardware Programming Reference Manual
A7L RM: Firmware and System Boot
For A9SE - I don't even know names of the documents. But I searched for the over a year ago, so maybe something leaked in the meantime?
The "Firmware and System Boot" document would be a best find.

also in my board there is -3.3VView attachment 100640 Gimbal diode is off. There is 12v at the test pad as is 5v 3.3v and 1.8v at respective pads. Only failed points are on 3.3v on opposite side of board near sd slot it reads 0v not sure if this is relevant. Flowchart indicates problem with voltage regulators or Ambarella chip itself.Does anyone know if the 3.3v pad on other side should be at 3.3v when powered up.View attachment 100637
On the same track is a component with -3.3v on the left and 0v on the right is that correct or has this failed ?
i want to ask you all, the pad signed with "G" at the top of your pic is a ground or what? Because if i mesure between 3V3VD and G there is not 3.3V but 0,30V, they are the pads for the FAN. Thx
yes sure, fan is controlled.... ok, but where there is printed "G" should not be a ground?Voltage drop .3V is common on some transistors. And the fan is software-controlled.

Anyway, i did not explain my problems with Ph3 Pro.... simply i do not have live cam on tablet, i do not see any led green/red on gimbal top board, the fan (of gimbal board) does not work and the SD slot does not work.
I measured all the voltages on the gold pad and all of them give me back exsattly the voltages printed on the pcb (12V - 5V-3.3V-18V), i measured also the 4 coils and they are shorted. If i measure the voltage on the Led (+) and a Gnd it measure 3.3V, if i measure the (+) on the SD slot it is 3.3V and also on the Fan pin (+).... so i was thinking a ground was missing..... anyway... i'm confused.
i flashed the Nand with u-boot.img and ubl1.img and programming was sussesfully, but without resolve the problems. If Ambarella controls the SD and the led, why also the Fan does not work? Thx for replayDon't ask me. In sometwisted way it is "almost ground" - full ground should be "GND" after all.
So Ambarella is not booting. Ambarella controls the LED and the sd-card.
You can try shorting the "g" to ground, that shouldn't hurt.
But probably the cause will be in Ambarella pipeline being damaged - it gets power, but it isthn't starting. Read about module m0100 on the Github wiki - that's the Ambarella module.
Ambarella consists of the main SoC, external RAM and external NAND storage. Usually the NAND gets damaged, or simply de-programmed.
But the conclusion is - bad news, we don't have a method of re-programming Ambarella. We don't even have full image of the NAND.
And Ambarella Programing Manual is distributed under NDA - we don't have it.

I don't know how the fan is controlled.If Ambarella controls the SD and the led, why also the Fan does not work?
Are you sure you're talking about the same NAND? How did you managed to program it?
I don't know how the fan is controlled.
That's sure, but we were talking to flash the NAND, is not plugged to Ambarella?There is a subtle difference between these two logos; you shouldn't mix them up:

Sorry, but i do not really think you have to teach me what a computer is.... my first notebook i have since 1990... so, i'm here just to ask things to resolve with my board, i'm not experienced about drones and for that reason i was asking if there is a rapid solution to make my gimbal works again.NANDs, RAMs and buck converters are just auxiliary devices which help the Main Computation Unit work.
You have a computer, right? It's got CPU on a main board. The main board contains chipset, and sockets for additional devices: RAM sticks, disks, and power supply of course.
Here you have exactly the same thing, just smaller. So CPU and chipset are integrated into one SoC, but they still need external RAM and external disk (aka storage), and stable power from buck converters.
On the Ph3 Pro Gimbal Top Board, you have two SoCs of the above mentioned manufacturers. You probably know you can't connect a disk to two computers at the same time, right? Two computers mean two storage devices. And in this implementation NAND chip is the storage.
