Description

@CaptainMorgan12

Environment: uuu 1.4.193, Librem 5 phone (fully functioning), librem5 specific jumpdrive files jumpdrive files for librem5.

Steps to Repeat:

  1. bash bash boot-purism-librem5.sh
  2. waiting for phone
  3. get phone into flash mode (volume up, plug in usb cable, add battery, release volume up key)

Observation:

  1. as soon as i plug the usb cable in, and even before i have a chance to add the battery or release the volume up key it generates teh error:

Error:

uuu (Universal Update Utility) for nxp imx chips – lib1.4.193
Success 0 Failure 1
9:2 1/ 0 [Failure open usb device,Try sudo uuu ]

What is has done before about one month ago is successfully initialize jumpdrive on the device and allow device flashing. I am not sure what changed or if it is the fault of jumpdrive, or uuu, or my phone, but it used to work only two weeks ago when doing some other testing. I did upgrade my ubuntu to Ubuntu 22.10 due to a new reinstall a week ago, otherwise i am using the same USB port, the same USB cable, and same exact hardware.
