Devo10 stuck in update mode

My new Devo10 is stuck in program update mode. I can upload firmware and library, but it doesent exit update mode any more, Help. The display always says some chinese letters, then "program update..."

Doesent matter if walkera firmware or deviation, its stuck in update mode. Help. How can i reset that? The dfuse program quits with error when i try to verify the lib.

I did load deviation on my Devo12S last week and this works just fine. The drivers etc are all installed OK.

Stuck EXT button?

With Deviation if you see the USB symbol you just need to format the drive (you may need to use Windows for this) and copy the filesystem over.

The is no LIB you need to flash with Deviation.

If you use DFUSE then it has a "Leave DFU mode" button, what happens when you click it?

Problem solved.

Dfuse 1.3 was problem. Dfuse 1.7 works ok. Nasty thing.
I leave this post so "devo10 stuck update" and solution can be searched.

Aaaaand ... deviationtx installed.
Now i have to learn how to navigate without touchscreen.

Glad you got it sorted out!

Hello,
now I ran into the same problem with my Devo 10.
I tried to install deviation v5.00 to my Devo 10 first with DFUSE 2.31 tool. Installed USB driver for Win 10.
All seemed to be ok, connection to Devo 10 via USB, DFUSE tool recognized tx. But after upgrade my Devo 10
never came out of the program update mode.
I tried then DFUSE 3.0.5. and the devitation upload tool 0.8.0 without success, my Devo10 is still in update mode, once
I switch it on, even without holding the EXT button.
No reaction by any switch or button.
Every help appreciated

1. Use 2.31. You'll have problems otherwise.
2. Be sure you are installing the DFU zip that does NOT hav "emu" in the name. The ones with "emu" are PC executable emulator files, not DFU files.
3. Please post the complete name(s) of the downloaded DFU zip file(s) you use. We need the specifics or we may have to guess...

Ok, I am using now Dfuse USB Upgrade Tools 2.31 now, after installed USB driver for WIN10: DFU USBDrv Installer-1.1
the dfu files are:
DEVO-10 Fw v0.8B.dfu
deviation-devo10-v4.0.1.dfu
ugrade tool looks good so far, but if IU start an upgrade it stucks in
"Firmware: Upgrading - Download Phase (0%)" for a while and then switches to "Upgrade successful!"

It looks like the upgrade is working. You need to use the Deviation 5.0.0 DFU... there are three choices:
1. Release version is called "deviation-devo10-v5.0.0.zip" - the last stable release
2. Release version with additional protocols is in this thread.
3. Nightly Builds are for developers or testers, or just plain edgy-kinda users.

You do not need the file DEVO-10 Fw v0.8B.dfu; I believe that is walkera stock firmware.

Follow the installation instructions in the User Manual or this roadmap. There are a few good tutorials in that forum.

Thanks for the great roadmap. I followed the roadmap, using dfu tool 2.31 and firmware
Deviation devo10 v5.0.0. But still same problem, the tx stucks in programming mode immediately after power on.
W/o presseing EXT button.
with the deviation update tool I see with file manager that the file DEVO.ELF is on the tx
did I kill somehow the boot loader of the tx?

No, I don't think so. If the boot loader was broken you wouldn't get the DFU programming screen. It seems to me that the .elf file isn't what we should be seeing, but i don't have a Devo 10; my 12e is great and mostly the same as the 10, but the uploaded tool doesn't work with it.

I am thinking the problem is the file you are trying to load still isn't right. With the uploader you just have to select the zip file you chose to use (e.g. "deviation-devo10-v5.0.0.zip"). The uploaded will put all the files onto the right places. After a successful installation, the file manager should see several folders and files, like hardware.ini and tx.ini.

Maybe try again with the uploader rather than the DFUse tool?

I tried now both, the DFUse tool 2.31 and the deviation uoload tool 0.8.0, all seems working but my devo 10 still stucks in Programm Upload.... immediateley after power on.
I used both, the original DEVO 10 firmware 0.8b and the deviation firmware deviation-devo10-v5.0.0.dfu w/o success
any ideas?

Wow. It sounds like you have done all the right things to get it set up. Did you try this: remove the battery for at least a few hours, maybe overnight. If it works, the TX will just boot into Deviation (or whatever you last loaded).

If that doesn't work, I think your next step might be a new bootloader, but this isn't something I've done or can advise. I still don't really think it's a bootloader issue, because AFAIK a failed bootloader would just not load anything or respond to the DFUse software. Is it possible that the EXT button is stuck?

I searched this site for the bootloader instructions and found some relevant threads:
* www.deviationtx.com/forum/3-feedback-que...memory-content#54138
* www.deviationtx.com/forum/6-general-disc...oader?start=20#54139

I hope you can work this out. Let us know what you find.

v 4.0.1? do i see well?

Hi vlad_vy,
thanks for your reply. I followed your instruction and indeed now the Dfuse tool shows me the correct information. After the upgrade and power off/on the Devo10 has now a white display.
What is the next step?
by the way I used now v5.0.0 firmware

Whow, after starting with ENT + power on, I was able to format the DEVO and copy the files to it.
Now it works finally
thx to all
