I have following the instructions:
I have installed the DFU driver (windows x64)
The prompt, etc.
When I write:
#echo -e -n "\x03Rad" > ssid_prefix (It's OK)
When I try to upload in the dfu:
#dfu-util -d 2b04:d006 -a 1 -s 1826 -D ssid_prefix
I receive the following:

When I reset the device and set it on listening mode it continues appearing the standard name.
I have tried with the lib⌠driver for photon dfu and with the windows⌠driver which Zadig propose. Both options generates the same. I think it is not related with it.
I have also tried to modify the serial following your example and the name of the serial has been modified to:
Photon--n "
So, it seems the name has been (-n "), the four characters (instead of 6) before âABCDEFâ. I have modified the echo serial line from:
echo -n "ABCDEF" > serial
to:
echo ABCDEF > serial
And when I try with:
dfu-util -d 2b04:d006 -a 1 -s 1852:6 -D serial
The SSID has changed to: Photon-ABCD
In the serial it seems that the maximum is 4 letters (unless in firmware 0.4.7). It is not a problem for me.
I do not know if something related with the SSID Prefix has changed @mdma
We are ending a product development and this is possible the last step. Any help will be hardly appreciated.
Thank you very much
@Moors7: in the future, PLEASE use some formatting in your posts. This one was really hard to read.
