[BUG] Firmware update for HTC Vive Pro 1 HMD fails

Open panmarco83 opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug When attempting to update the Vive Pro HMD; all USB devices are reset and need to be disconnected and reconnected before working again except the Vive itself that needs a full reboot. The update fails at every attempt and I suspect there is something in the 'vivetools' program that causes the entire fault and here is why: When running the program without any parameters, it still resets ALL USB devices causing a need for them to bee reconnected. This then also causes the Vive Pro HMD to need a reconnect because it isn't registering anymore and the 'vivetools' program fails it's operation.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Start SteamVR and see update (i) icon on hmd and other devices (controllers updated just fine over usb)
  2. Click Update
  3. Wait for it to fail

Expected behavior The HMD's firmware is successfully updated.
