hi newbee here
I've got a LA46A500 this is bricked I did this by changing the settings in the service menu not knowing what i was doing
power on 7 blinks of the standby led black screen and after about a minute it restarts and repeats over and over
1-tryed the eeprom chip tick on the only 8 pin eeprom on the main board- didnt work
2-this board is a mt8226 so tried re-flashing with MtkTool and when i hit the flash button it says "baudRate AutoSet Fail! Please reset the target board" and the baud rateis set to 115200
3-trying to work with putty. I've communication with the board but it restarts before I can do anything meaningful

has anyone got any experience with a A550 board that can help, would be appreciated

i think your brick should be repairably by eeprom reset. You have to identify SoC eeprom and make short connection on it.

tried eeprom reset on the only eeprom on the board (i have the diagram) and didn't do any thing. so going to put a 37A550 board in hope it will work
