Description

Hi there,

my T-Echo hangs with just the red charging light. Even clicking the reset button twice to get a Drive in the explorer wont work.
When I hold the reset button there is a purple light with the red light on.

Anyone with the same problem? Is it bricked?

Relevant log output

No response

Sounds like a flash / filesystem issue. You need to erase the device and load a fresh firmware.

Select T-Echo and click the Trashcan icon and follow the instructions

Tried it and the device is not shown in the selection list (for entering the DFU Mode). Whenn I click two times the reset button I get a purple light for a fraction of a second and thats it.

So I do not get into dfu mode.

This seems to be another duplicate of #5839
Should be mostly solved with Firmware 2.5.20 beta and upwards and requires a NRF factory reset.

@fifieldt this seems to be the last one =)
