Here are the log data of the firmware flash tool.
The device does not turn on after this atempt to update the firmware…
The LEDs start blinking, then stops with the orange and the blue fixed, as in the picture.
To see the blinking lights on YouTube
Any one, please! Help!
Today I was able to connect the device to my computer (It was not doing that)
So… I tried again. No sucess… The device do not turn on yet.
Is there an older firmware that I could try?23.03.2020_09-23-12.zip (4.7 KB)
Here is the log file.
I found another way to flash the firmware here (version 2.18.1): https://doc.emlid.com.br/reachrs/common/reachview/firmware-reflashing/
I tryied … no sucess!
The receiver do not turn on - this was the version that was instaled before I tried to update!
Is there a way to factory reset the unit?
If I get you correctly, you have no access to the ReachView app. Also, based on the solid blue LED, the device is in hotspot mode. Whether you see the Reach hotspot from your smartphone or laptop?
I tryied again with the REACH FIRMWARE FLASH TOOL - here is the video
The device keep the same (the orange and the blue ligths on all the time - I am keeping it connected to the computer… but I don’t know if it will show as fineshed on some time…)
I will send the log data as soon as i close the REACH FIRMWARE FLASH TOOL.
On the first attempt, it shown a error - I tryied again and it showed sucess… But the receiver kept off working. I tried to roll back with the version 2.18.1, found here:
Ok, so to finish the old reflash option, did you download the image into a folder and attach the libus and dfu files (circled in red) and then run flashall.bat?
It is strange, I have returned several times to old versions with this method and it has never failed me.
If you have time, remember to go to a friend’s computer and try to flash with it. Also try a different USB cable. Sometimes even changing to a different USB port (back vs. front or add a powered USB hub). These are all things one can try while waiting for a recommendation from @svetlana.nikolenko.
This was a long time ago I even put an RS in the freezer for 30 minutes and I was able to get a successful flash. I don’t want to really suggest that putting in a freezer is the right thing to do because we might start another “cargo cult”, but when there is difficulty flashing any device (whether Reach or other type of hardware) sometimes a small change can bring success after lots of failures.
After all, we just need all the digibits to get put in the right place within the eMMC chip.
