Avalon Nano 3S recovery
Restore the complete ten-partition SPI-NAND image, then clear preserved user storage with the Nano's RESET button. This removes saved pools, Wi-Fi, custom screens, and tuning settings without erasing device calibration.

This image contains the complete Nano 3S SPI-NAND boot and system layout, including both SPL copies. It was successfully recovery-flashed and boot-tested on Avalon Nano 3S hardware.
Use this path when the browser does not finish, the miner only appears in BOOT mode, or the first-stage bootloader also needs to be restored.

Firmware flashing intentionally preserves the Nano's data partition. Perform this step after the full recovery image boots to remove pools and custom screens.
The same partition also contains device-specific factory identity and hashrate calibration. The RESET routine removes user configuration while preserving those factory records.
Confirm SPI NAND is selected. Nano 3S recovery must not be written as eMMC.
Try a different data cable and a direct motherboard USB port without a hub.
Disconnect power completely, hold BOOT, reconnect power, and select the K230 device again.
A failed attempt does not move a device-locked firmware credit to another Nano.
