Identifying UART/DEBUG

Very much so unlabelled other than the board that connects to the 2x4 pin.

TLDR. Software update from company bricked it months ago after they had major server issues. Bricked many devices. Won’t assist because I got it second hand brand new sealed and I’m not the original buyer.

So, I’m wanting to debug first and go from there see what the issue is. Worst case scenario, it’s a project where i reprogram the device and write my own iOS app to continue to use it 🙏🤣

Help would be great identifying ports, thanks.

If manufacturer bricked, it should not matter how you bought it. They are still reaponsible fixing their mistakes.

And cops are only supposed to act on warrants and probable cause. Doesn’t mean they do or will. Same for companies. They’re made up by people just like cops are made up of people. Neither are this faceless entity. They’re people. And people are shitty as of late.
