Hi, I'm trying to flash my AWR1843BOOST EVM using Uniflash 8.1.1.4146 but it hangs with the following console log:

[01/12/2022, 01:10:15] [INFO] Cortex_R4_0: Initialization complete.

[01/12/2022, 01:10:16] [INFO] Cortex_R4_0: Reading device version info...

I need to escape out of it, and sometimes kill some processes before I can repeat.

Device manager identifies the devices as XDS110

I'm on Windows 10 Pro.

I'm stuck! Hope you can help.

    After a thorough clean-up, and target power cycle, I ran it again to see what processes it ran. It hung in exactly the same way as before.
    This is more info:

    I've diagnosed this further, and now have success. Posting in case others have similar.


    It seems that when I'm connected to a USB3 hub, it does NOT work properly. Maybe it's my cheap hub!


    When connected directly to a PC, via a new and longer USB lead, I have success.

    Console:
