</div>I think this can be distro related as I've never had issues, even with<br>
many devices connected to usb. I use archlinux.<br>
<br>
When you say 'backup', if you mean you were backing up the existing<br>
flash then I wouldn't bother, especially if it's not working properly<br>
anyway.<br>
<br>
Flashing the FR should only take ~10min. The u-boot timeout only applies<br>
when idle, so make sure your battery is well charged.<br>
<br>
When I have had issues, it has related to the usb cable, so maybe try<br>
another. Also, it may be worth identifying the ID of the FR and<br>
submitting it to dfu-util.<br>
<br>
Outside of that, maybe try a different version of dfu-util.<br>
<br>
Good luck.<br>

After upgrading that it seems I just need to wait a couple of seconds after connecting the usb cable before running dfu-util, by doing that it works on ether the first or second try. <br>
