How to recover cc6imx6Quad-sbc

cc6imx6Quad-sbc first startup...
Was using instructions here: www.digi.com/get-started/cc6jumpstartkit.
Board booted to boot loader over serial connection to PC ok.
Instructions said to use: ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/android/8.0/r1/82004313_A.zip
But I decided to use: ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/android/9.0/r3/82004353_D.zip

The upload went ok but board would no longer boot after that. Also won't boot to boot loader over serial either.

How do I recover this board?

Thanks,
Gus.

recovery instructions can be found here:
https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/digidocs/embedded/dey/3.0/cc6/yocto_t_recover-device_cc6cc6plus

your subject states that you are using:ccimx6 board, however, log shows you are using ccimx8 u-boot image:
u-boot-ccimx8xsbcpro2GB-B0-flash.imx
Those are two completely different platforms
