Re: Can't flash my Arale (tried a bunch of different suggestions)

 

ubuntu-device-flash has never been reliable for me either. Oftentimes it fails to push at some point. In such case I always wipe all the ~/.cache/ubuntuimages contents and after that it works....

That's me. I'm using a Dell M3800 running Ubuntu natively. My u-d-f logs
look pretty much identical to Pete's, but I'm using a krillin. I've
spent an entire day trying to flash again and again, given up in
frustration, and then have it work first try in the morning. It's
incredibly unreliable.

I've had no trouble using `fastboot boot`, but 99% of the time when I
flash with u-d-f it errors out while pushing files. I did try the
Mediatek flashing tool and it didn't work any better in my case-- I
tried it three or four times, each time failing after getting to a
different percentage (never more than 5% or so).

This really does seem to have been happening recently, since a few
months ago I was able to repartition and flash reliably. I've tried
switching out USB cables to no avail.
