VOXL2 Stuck in Fastboot
-
My VOXL2 is stuck in fastboot. I tried to
- QDL
- Force fastboot using button on VOXL2 and reflash
Neither of these could get the VOXL2 out of Fastboot. It seemed like something was corrupted on the board (it was the filesystem I believe)
Here are the steps I took to fix it
- Download the system image from: https://developer.modalai.com/asset
- unzip the file
tar -xzf voxl2_SDK_1.0.0.tar.gz - navigate into the file folder, and the "system-image" folder there within
cd voxl2_SDK_1.0.0/system-image - Factory reset flash using
flash-system-image.sh -f - You should now see the "Qualcomm-KONA" device, and you should be able to adb in
- navigate back to the root of the folder "voxl2_SDK_1.0.0"
- run the install script
./install.sh - follow the prompts
You should be good to go from here. I found this information from this other post: https://forum.modalai.com/topic/1931/voxl2-not-coming-out-of-fastboot?_=1698713877796
But thought I would type this up to make it a bit more concise incase anyone came across this same issue in the future
