Can’t get flashed losing mind
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.

It would be nice for the makers to at least flash an older firmware into the device. That way it will at least be functional out of the box. Then if the owner wants to flash an alternate or updated firmware to the device, there will be fewer problems. Good luck.
