Surface Go 1 UEFI Update 1.0.34 bricked "no bootable device" #27
Comments
Hello, did you get everything sorted? Microsoft was offering free replacements regardless of warranty for affected devices, one of which I was able to get. They should still be offering replacements I would hope but I noticed on the huge Microsoft support thread for the issue: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/all/surface-go-uefi-version-is-1034-and-no-bootable/9d1ba573-7929-489d-b31b-1b5912df529b?page=1 That recently in the last day or so Microsoft has now been directing people to this page: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/surface-go-or-surface-go-2-turns-on-and-shows-no-bootable-device-5348cd7c-b417-4384-aad1-6d7db2642a9b On that page is a special USB bootable image that might contain a fix, but I can't test to say it would work. It's worth a shot if you have files in a Windows partition that are behind bitlocker or anything that's not easily recovered via a Linux live usb. |
hey, thank you! And meanwhile I use OpenSuse. No problems (like all Ubuntu derivatives) with the WiFi ath10k driver and good handling as a tablet. Only some programs run badly. For example Conky has to be reprogrammed by yourself, and Howdy can't be installed (yet) (python-pam problem, maybe I'll fix it soon). And I will try Endeavor OS and Zorin OS (also Ubuntu derivative). But thank you very much for the hint! |
I was considering suggesting this to a friend of mine who has this device but I'm not sure if I should given this report? |
How so? |
I had the issue the firmware update to UEFI-1.0.34 bricked my device.
"No bootable device" message at boot.
I tried downgrade the firmware with fwupd but nothing worked.
First I tried with my Kali-live-usb, second with Ubuntu-usb, with Microsoft's new "surface UEFI-Konfigurator" hirens-boot-cd, and many others. Nothing worked!
But now, after 5 weeks I got it! :-)
I'll make a description soon!
