Not able to re-flash my Octopus V1.1 via any RatOS method
I've had consistent errors with RatOS and was advised to reflash everything. After re-flashing the pi, the version of the Octopus wasn't aligned but now I'm stuck in a "DFU not found" state while trying to flash the octopus. When it did happen to detect (not anymore), I remove the boot pin jumper, flash and get taken back to the same prior screen which tells me the versions aren't aligned after a few moments of "Flashing...". Has anyone else experienced this?

What are you using to flash? If etcher use a previous version (not 2.x but 1.19.x)
I used Rufus for the flashing of the pi. Etcher was causing other problems.
which RatOS version should I be downloading from their gitHub?: https://github.com/Rat-Os/RatOS/releases

then (once working) update everything to RC3
Thanks! I'll give it a shot.
I'm unfortunately getting the same issue. Sometimes when Automatic Flashing becomes available, I get the following error message, but otherwise i get "Waiting For DFU...".
I was curious so started googling...
https://www.reddit.com/r/BIGTREETECH/comments/1bqokkq/btt_octopus_pro_v10_446_flash_issues/ - is everything disconnected from the octopus? (not a SME just interested at this point)

Should've caught that thanks, I had only removed all the jumpers. I'll give it another shot.
🤞
Same issue unfortunately. Automatic flashing doesn't seem to be an option anymore and am still stuck on "Waiting For DFU..." after pressing the reset button. (boot and usb-powered pin have jumpers and everything else is unplugged from the octopus and pi).
ugh sorry. I think I've run out of known ideas
any chance you have a spare Octopus to try to narrow down the problem?
Unfortunately not. Is there anyone you could refer me to who may be more knowledgeable on this issue?
And thanks so much for helping me!
Are you able to flash via sd card?
