Instructions: Answer all questions. Show configuration files or command examples where requested. Be concise and precise.

Section C — Practical Tasks (3 tasks, 10 points each = 30 points) 16. Create a complete minimal v6 XML entry set for flashing four partitions: preloader (at 0x0, size 0x100000), boot (0x100000, 0x800000), system (0x900000, 0x6000000), userdata (0x6900000, 0x8000000). Include file attributes (use .bin/.img names) and show the XML root wrapper appropriate for SP Flash Tool v6. 17. Provide a command sequence or step list (no GUI screenshots) to safely flash only the boot partition using SP Flash Tool v6 and the XML you created in Q16, minimizing risk to user data. 18. Given a corrupt boot.img (bad checksum), outline steps to detect the corruption before flashing and how to obtain/verify a correct replacement image.

Section D — Troubleshooting & Advanced (6 questions, 5 points each = 30 points) 19. A user reports "BROM ERROR: S_FT_DOWNLOAD_FAIL (400)" when trying to download multiple files specified by the XML. List five distinct causes and remedies. 20. Explain how to adapt an XML prepared for eMMC storage to work on an SD-card-based or NAND-based variant of the same board. 21. Describe how secure boot (e.g., signed images, auth keys, locked boot ROM) affects usage of SP Flash Tool and the XML. Include detection steps and one safe approach when secure boot is present. 22. When might you need to modify partition names in the XML even if addresses match, and what are the consequences of mismatched names? 23. Outline a safe workflow to reverse an accidental full-device flash done with an incorrect XML — include immediate steps, data-recovery considerations, and when to stop attempting writes. 24. Provide a short annotated checklist (6 items) for validating any third-party v6 XML file before using it to flash a device.
