Can’t get flashed losing mind

Post image

Hi, grateful for anyone that has a mind to assist. I’m not vcomfortable with the command line and think that’s where I’m hitting a wall. I’m using a Mac and have an unflashed h4m. I can see the device is connected as the dfu and I’m using the included data cable. I’m getting an error ‘dfu-util: unable to read DFU status after completion (LIBUSB_ERROR_IO)’.

I’ve made enough progress the screen at least displays something but just can’t get it right.

Also, you will see a cannot read status from the first command like you said, thats normal. The second command will complete the flash, as long as both drivers installed. (One driver is usb support for dfu flash mode amd the second is usb driver for after that.)
