rk30xx loader image unpacker

Obtaining RK3066 boot ROM.

Here are my steps.

At first, I took a look to RK30xxLoader(L)_V1.18.bin. This file appears in update.img for my device. So, I unpacked update.img using rk29Kitchen.

strings on that file returns nothing interesting, so I assumed the file is crypted

Next step was to get IDA pro, and disassemble RKAndroidTool.fexe - utility from rockchip for flashing device firmware. In disassembly I found, that loader is scrambled using RC4. File is split to 0x200 chunks and every chunk is scrambled.

So, I wrote unpack_loader.pl script, which gave me output of 4 files.

1   14a  321c 30_LPDDR2_300MHz_DD
2  3366  c914 rk30usbplug
4  fc7a  3400 FlashData
4 1307a 1ac00 FlashBoot

Fortunately, there were meaningful names for those files in loader.bin.

30_LPDDR2_300MHz_DD is a dram init procedure FlashData is a copy of dram init procedure, aligned to 512 bytes (flash block size)

rk30usbplug is MaskRom mode handler FlashBoot is stage2 for booting from NAND, and also it contains handler for DFU mode.

Those files were disassembled too, and in FlashBoot I found that there is command in DFU mode to obtain data from any DDR RAM region. So, my idea was to inject code in FlashBoot, which will copy bootrom to some address, accessible in DFU mode. But there was a problem, FlashBoot is overwriting memory at address 0 - it is where bootrom is located at power on. So, all I need is to copy 0x2800 bytes (boot ROM size) starting from 0x0 before FlasfhBoot overwrites it, and there you are -> bootrom.bin

So I wrote a set of tools for that. patch_loader.sh injects code pack_loader.pl resembles lFoader from parts and sign it with rkcrc.

So, all was done with this script.

perl unpack_loader.pl RK30xxLoader\(L\)_V1.18.bin write
sh patch_loader.sh FlashBoot.bin
perl pack_loader.pl dram=30_LPDDR2_300MHz_DD.bin boot=FlashBoot.bin.patched data=FlashData.bin usbplug=rk30usbplug.bin out=patchedLoader.bin

Flash patchedLoader.bin with RKAndroidTool.exe, and obtain loader with rkflashtool m 0x64000000 0x2800 > bootrom.bin

I uploaded bootrom.hex. Execute xxd -rp bootrom.hex > bootrom.bin to get bootrom.bin

Now, when all parts of loader are descrambled and could be disassembled, it is matter of time to port u-boot to this SoC, and boot any OS native.

RK3066 boot sequence

At power, rk30 starts from 0x0 offset in bootrom.

bootrom copies itself to SRAM, and proceeds to find dram init handler in idbrom
bootrom loads dram init handler in memory and executes it
bootroms search for flashboot and load it to memory
if flashboot could not be found, bootrom search for usbplug and load it

flashboot init NAND, search for parameter file, load kernel to DRAM and boot it

Hi, I'm trying to unlock Bootloader of a rk3066 device, and got here, can't understand what to do, can you please put it into steps, for instance I don't know how to write a script and never have dealt with such thing directly. Thank you.

So it is possible to get Arch Linux to run on my Android Dual Core A9 Mini TV-Stick? Would be sooo nice!
btw. I currently found a "RK30xxLoader(L)_V2.19.bin" - would be nice to know, where the other, never versions are, as this is from 2014-10-29 17:47:36. I thing its the newest one.

@Yaksinikos idk, don't own my device since ages. Don't expect newer versions though, rk3066 is long obsolete. Anyway, google around, I see there is now u-boot and even full distro for rk3066.

Hi, tried to flash u-boot spl & tpl for my device.
after successful build i used

#!/bin/sh

printf "RK30" | dd conv=notrunc bs=4 count=1 of=u-boot-tpl.bin
truncate -s %2048 u-boot-tpl.bin
truncate -s %2048 u-boot-spl.bin
../tools/boot_merger --verbose config-flash.ini
../tools/upgrade_tool ul ./RK30xxLoader_uboot.bin

And my board is just crashing into BROM without any logs. I really dont know what to do.

Tried as 2nd bootloader.

Copied u-boot-dtb.bin, used

mkbootimg --kernel u-boot-dtb.bin           --ramdisk ramdisk-new.cpio.gz           --base 0x60400000           --kernel_offset 0x00008000           --ramdisk_offset 0x01c00000           --tags_offset 0xffc88000           --pagesize 16384                      -o boot.img

Ramdisk is empty. After building android image, used

rkcrc boot.img bootcrc.img

flashed bootcrc.img via upgrade_tool

upgrade_tool di -b bootcrc.img

And in serial port there is logs.

Also i used your perl tools to pack loader. After implementing RC4 cipher in perl, it packed.

Tried to flash, and.... error.

upgrade_tool says
Prepare IDB failed
and i cant flash loader, that made by your tool.

@gentoocat you can't use normal android mkbootimg, that's why you get the 'SHA ERROR!'. You need this one: https://github.com/apeelme/cm_rk3066_mkbootimg

(I'm currently working on mainlining RK3066 for postmarketOS; have documented some stuff at https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Rockchip_RK3066 – found this gist while searching for U-Boot stuff since U-Boot has DDR init code and I'm currently debugging weird memory instability under mainline Linux)

@valpackett Thanks, i built u-boot 2nd. Usb and SD works partially, it can list files, but cant load anything. Do you have telegram or something where we can chat? I have Upvel UM-514TV (Kimdecent B13 OEM brother). Also, can you give me pmaports, u-boot and your kernel fork please? I really want to use this board as my armv7 server.

I can run my mainline kernel, but it will run on nand instead sdcard. My nand is slow, and i have assumptions that nand will die soon.

Here's the kernel fork but I don't really have many kernel changes yet (working on touchscreen and LVDS/HDMI scaler drivers for the specific tablet I have). As a server it should be easy :) NAND is actually something I couldn't get to work btw (well I got it to probe with what I think are the correct settings, but it's reading garbage instead of actual contents).

I have contact info on my website, linked in the github profile of course (:
