@modaltb This post is quite different from https://forum.modalai.com/topic/518/unable-to-unbrick-modalai-voxl-m500.

Here I am able to fastboot and start writing an image but gets stuck at the part were the board reboots and waits for the device. Please see this https://forum.modalai.com/topic/402/voxl-stuck-in-waiting-for-device-after-unbricking post. @Chad-Sweet recommended using adb kill-server and the user tried a different PC to flash. But both these methods didn't work for us.

@modaltb @Chad-Sweet This issue has happened to another drone of ours. Could you please take a look at this ?

Hi @ashwin-umdlife ,

We might need to setup a screen share if possible, can you let me know what timezone and then I'll try to schedule something.

From what I understand, you have attempted to re-flash the VOXL system image on QTY2 units now and both proceed through the process but are stuck at [INFO] Waiting for device...

In the platform release download folder, can you please go here and try to run this script directly?

cd voxl_platform_3-3-0-0.4.6-b/system-image
sudo ./flash_build_apps.sh

If after this you are still stuck in [INFO] Waiting for device..., can you try:

run fastboot devices or sudo fastboot devices
if a device shows up, then run sudo fastboot reboot to bring it out of fastboot (hopefully)

Thanks for your patience.

@modaltb Tried all the steps mentioned above. But unfortunately nothing works.

Wanted to update this by saying I experienced same issue, but I resolved this by disconnecting tracking camera that had been installed upside down. So, if anyone is reading this in the future....try disconnecting your cameras attached to the board
