I cant seem to get the Thingy 91 into boot MCU mode, so that I can update it to the latest firmware.
No matter how many times I try turning the unit off and powering up with the larger press button held down, the firmware programming returns an error complaining that the unit is not in BootMCU mode.
Is there anything else I could try?
Here are the two Link Monitor views - one for the successful Thingy91 and the other for the one that has failed to connect so far - both have identical firmware and app code.
Hello Andrew,

Do both Thingys have the same hardware revision as well? You can check this via the white label on the PCB.
Could you flash the AT Client application image to the Thingy:91 that does not connect to the network and run through the procedure described in this chapter? I would be interested in having a look at the application log, which you by the way can open separately by clicking on the first button to the right of “Log”.
Regards,
Markus
Thanks Markus - the revision of the non-working one is 1.4.0 2020.23 (the other one is the same but has 2020.22)
I've installed the AT Client app and run the tests, as suggested. Please find the log file enclosed.

Hello Andrew,
Andrew8691 said:Thanks Markus - the revision of the non-working one is 1.4.0 2020.23 (the other one is the same but has 2020.22)
Are you using the same SIM card on both devices?

You should normally get more information here than “5,2” only.. which might indicate that there is something wrong with the SIM card.

Markus
Thanks Markus, I used the Basis sims that came in the box with the devices. The unit that is causing problems has an aquamarine coloured SIM whilst the working unit has a white SIM. in the pic, the unit on the left is the working one.
