Not able to apply Patch

Troubleshooting
1

hello everyone, Hope you’re having fun with the Spark core,

But Actually I’m having a problem, I’m not able to apply the patch to my core, As given in the https://github.com/spark/cc3000-patch-programmer, I’ve downloaded the repositories and installed dfu-util also.

After that it was said to download the https://github.com/spark/spark-cli/raw/master/js/binaries/deep_update_2014_06.bin, since the one on the Github website was an old one, So I did and whenever I’m running the below statement
"dfu-util -d 1d50:607f -a 0 -s 0x08005000:leave -D deep_update_2014_06.bin"

I’m getting this output

And after that it starts flashing green and when I actually press the mode button, it flashes solid blue, but I’m not getting the magenta colour which actually indicates the transfer of patch.

Help me out at the earliest,

Thanks in advance

I could be wrong on this, but I think the magenta color is only when you are downloading the patch OTA (over-the-air). If you are patching locally, you are writing directly to the flash.

You can check out the Verify the deep update worked documentation to, well, verify if the deep update patch worked or not.
