One of my Electrons was working fine with 3rd party SIM and few days ago started blinking green … I’ve tried everything - updating code with STARTUP(cellular_credentials_set(“internet.tele2.ru”, “”, “”, NULL)); string… flashing again … adding setcreds etc… no reaction - still blinking green…
assume something wrong with Electron itself …
any way out ??
maybe Hard reset of Electron ?? but how to hard reset it ??
The usual way to get close to factory default woub go via DFU Mode
particle update
particle flash --usb tinker
# or for third party sim, upload the binary you got via setup.particle.io
particle flash --usb <customFirmware.bin>
thanks for helping out…
when I turn Electron to DFU mode Windors device manager asks for Proton DFU mode drivers - existing set of drivers doesnt fit (((
what should i feed there ?
@ScruffR thanks a lot for guiding in this hard situation
finally did all you’ve said
C:_particcle\tele2>particle flash --usb firmware.bin
running dfu-util -l

Invalid DFU suffix signature
A valid DFU suffix will be required in a future dfu-util release!!!
Flash success!
at the end is says “Invalid DFU suffix signature” but Flash is success! -
but still bninking green…
That suffix message is no issue - that’s normal.
Is the antenna attached properly?
Have you got the LiPo connected and fully charged?
What version CLI have you got?
Did you do
particle update
