How to solve the firmware update failures
-
@Xykon Many thanks - I tried to use the standard pycom windows updater/patcher for 0.9.2.b1 which failed using the offical expansion board. It immediately returned with a "fail" every time I tried although REPL via Putty and PyMakr still worked fine. Having read this thread, I wondered if the high baud rate specified in Line 12 of updater.py might be the problem. Tried again using Windows GUI but still no joy. Finally, tried again using a command window and managed to update both my LoPy's first time. I'd spent a couple of weeks unable to update them over wifi and had write protect problems - hopefully all will me smoother now!
Many thanks to all - especially Xykon - Great work - (another upvote for you!)

@Xykon Thank you! Finally I was able to update... your post should get pin on top of this post. I connected my Lopy for the first time today and as written in the starting guide I started by the upgrade process. Thought it would be more straight-forward :P Anyway I understand bugs can happen at this early stage.
