Chris Bellows on the Atredis Blog posts about unbricking a running embedded system in a way few have tried. Often when assessing an embedded system, changes can occur (intended or otherwise) that cause the target system to enter a state where it no longer works ('bricked'). In some cases fixing the target is as simple as performing a "factory reset", others may be slightly more involved and require flashing the target using a debug interface (JTAG/SWD/*) or manually flashing an external storage device (SPI/NOR/Nand/eMMC).
