VapingBad Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 I would think it is just a problem with the parallels USB implementation and you just got lucky with that one, have a look at the Mac support thread and see if there is a better host or anything else that may help.

blueridgedog Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I and others have found an intermittent pulse in using a guest OS (parallels, Virtualbox, VMware). So far it looks like 8 of 10 flashes will work, put it will occasionally crash mid firmware flash. In my case, I needed a windows system to resurrect it.

cabrera17 Posted August 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 update-- i was able to get my hands on a windows computer and i was able to update the chip no issue everything went smooth as butter and i was even able to upload my own settings no issue no more VM for me gotta get my hands on the real thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueridgedog Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 I am still using Virtualbox for settings adjustment, but will only flash with a PC now. I hope there is a mac version one day.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
