[SOLVED] Bricked 5k+ after 144hz firmware

Hey guys, so recently I tried to upgrade my firmware to the 144hz firmware for my sn 203 headset. However, after flashing what seemed successfully the headset has been stuck in dfu mode with no way to reflash it. I’ve tried using all the tools I could find and still nothing. The headset appears briefly in DFUSE demo and quickly dissapears so even when it does connect I can’'t reflash it. Please help.

I would reccommend filing a ticket.

Where should I do that?

Just watch your Spam :open_file_folder: and check on your ticket every couple of days.

Maybe and maybe not. Post your ticket number in #PIMAX-HMD:PiQ-Support click in Hash tag. And at pimaxquorra and he can help get you ticket look at.

I had the same problem. You need disconnect the usb! Hold the dfu mode buttons and replug the usb!

It worked for me. Hope it helps!

Thanks a lot for the idea. Using my laptop I was able to re flash it. Funny I tried using another pc before but since it had pitool setup on it I don’t think it would work.
