I have had bad experience with the dfu_util before. It appeared almost
the same as your problem. It would download part way and show up as an
error.

I originally had a USB extension cable to the back of my computer. Bad
idea. I ended up using the (fairly short) cable that came out of the box
and it worked perfectly. My connections are sometimes loose though.
Maybe this will help.
