Since Nordic SDK release v1.0.0 our nRF9160 start having issues flashing and erasing. Coincidence?

Hi,

I'm using the latest release of software V1.0.0 with the nRF9160 DK and today started flashing the examples.

at_client worked fine (just tried flashing it once, but remember there was something going on there as well).
the sample application asset_tracker worked first time, I made some modifications to the code, and flashing it after, is very problematic.
See the log below.
* Erasing sectors fails.
* RAM doesn't respond in time..
I had to try several times, and also try to manually "erase all" but even that option took several tries before succeeding.
