When connected to PC: computer logo yellow, not connected to PC: gray logo.

Device works now OK. Many Thanks for help to all!

That's quite odd behavior. It might have a hardware fault. Have you tried to hard-reset it?

Edit: Just saw your edit made a few mins after my post. I thought you'd tried flashing original fw before. You probably should reset it, or better still clear NV on it now that it's booting up properly, in case there's some left-over garbage data from it's malfunction: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. Then backup NV afterwards: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Cleared nonvol and make NV backup: root folder 41.bin 0 kb, HWID number folder: last_id.bin 1 kb, ldr.bin 1 118 kb, update.log 1 kb, update.txt 1 kb.
SD formatted in device, then copy folders and files. Boot with card, show Loader text and green bar on the screen.

Edit: Made mistake: rrgn,154,2:/154.bin in update.txt instead 41.
Result: root folder 154.bin 4096 kb, hopefully correct now.

Thankyou for help!
