IT WORKED! Thanks man! I got into USB mode and backed up my /MyDocs, but now for some reason I can't use the flasher to flash the eMMC - when I connect my device in flashing mode and start the flasher, the flasher recognizes the device and tries to boot it into flash mode, but then the device immediately 'disconnects', I don't know why.
I tried using the flasher to disable R&D mode by simply running "flasher-3.5 --disable-rd-mode" and the command was executed successfully, but still the device disconnects when the flasher tries to boot it into flash mode...
Thats odd, since I've flashed my device numerous times and this never happened... Maybe there is a need to flash a different kernel into it first, to replace the rescue kernel?
