Hi Ismael, there is no 1:1 USB possibility and also no jtag on the PCB.
At best there is a serial console which in some cases (at least 2 Arnova models) is disabled.
However, your Pearl does seem to have the right parts to get fixed.

Hi William,

the main board shows KMP510 MAIN VER1.2
Date code is 22.10.2010.
The CPU is a Ingenic JZ4755
The NAND FLASH is a HYNIX H27UBG8T2BTR-BC with 32GB according to the data sheet.
There are two ELPIDA DS2516AFTA with 256M bit SDRAM mounted on the board.

Is there a way to fix this?

Using a 1:1 USB cabel ? or with the JTAG pnis at the CPU ?

Best regards

Ismail

Hi,
Sorry but there is no manual to fix the device yourself.
To start with, Pearl delivered various hardware models that look the same on the outside. 
Most can be fixed, some can not be fixed.

It all depends on what went wrong and how bad the damage is.Obviously more and more devices will now get damaged by the timebomb inside the official firmware.
I am able to construct images for some hardware models and these can then be repaired.
For others we lack information/files combined with instable hardware these are not worth the save simply because fixing them would cost many hours of work.

To start with, check the pearl model, check the model numbers on the PCB and lets see what it is you have there.
Then we can see if a next step is usefull or not.
