+Mask ROM mode
+-------------
+
+Mask ROM mode is the fallback mode of the boot ROM,
+in which it listens for USB commands 0x471/0x472.
+
+Options to get your board into Mask ROM mode:
+
+* Hold the recovery button, depending on firmware support or wiring,
+  while booting the board.
+* Remove any SD cards, removable eMMC or removable UFS modules.
+* Erase any storage media containing boot firmware.
+
+Methods of last resort (USE AT YOUR OWN RISK):
+
+Short the following pins briefly while powering the board, so the boot ROM
+cannot locate any boot firmware and falls back into Mask ROM mode:
+
+* NAND: connect pin 8 and 9 of the NAND flash with a needle.
+* eMMC: connect the clock line to ground.
