I never do back to back flashing method, it worked before. Just this time not work. Maybe I try flash to plain open mode kernel instead of urs l2fix, then flash ubiboot kernel to try?

hmm, I am not sure if it can be done without flashing everything, important is that you need to flash first to closed mode and then to open mode, without letting the device boot between the flashes...
It is not enough to flash just closed mode kernel, you need to flash so that the device as whole is in closed mode.

The reason for this procedure is that when the device boots the first time after a clean flash it will prepare a lot of things it needs to do; aegis keys are generated, files created with correct mode etc...

When you do the back-to-back flashing procedure, you make sure that the first boot after flashing is with an Open Mode kernel. This ensures that everything will be created with compatible keys and access modes.

juiceme explained full

What you might do (to preserve at least MyDocs data) is to omit the
"-F emmc.bin"
but then need to give
"--erase-user-data=secure"

So you will loose for sure all apps and data on /home.
But this is the most error free way to do. With all other methods (delete aegis dirs) you might experience strange things.

btw
thanks juiceme (and Hurrian) for new version.
Installed yesterday, loaded new kernel 2.6.32.61 and it booted (in contrary to the 59 version). Will be my default kernel now!

Yes, unless you disable it first.

The info I gave to TMavica assumes that you have disabled the open mode warning before this procedure.
(you only need to disable it once, after that even reflashing it will not bring back the open mode warning)

Just remember, the warning removal has to be done in closed mode. If you already are in open mode you need to do the following:

1.) flash emmc+firmware to get back to closed mode
2.) remove the open mode warning
3.) flash the device back-to-back closedmode/openmode
4.) enjoy

One question here, as I never tried that:
what is the
--suppress-warranty-warning
flag in flasher for?
Could this be used to just flash back-to-back (closed mode/open kernel) and then give this paramter during flashing the open mode kernel?
Worth a try, or? Volunteers, do not step back.

I was told it's a kind of joke

What it does, it just suppresses the warranty warning that flasher gives when you invoke it, this one:
WARNING: This tool is intended for professional use only. Using it may result
in permanently damaging your device or losing the warranty.
