After updating, the play dead mode may be enabled; this is indicated by a random firmware error, such as the following:

Firmware error 0x14008000

To exit this, press: up - down - left - right - center button. You can disable this by editing: settings -> disable login. The setting will be saved for next time.

Same, no fake error code on screen. But my problem does not appear in an original hackrf one and original portapack. In the original kit it works like a charm. But a friend bought a hackrf one clone in aliexpress branded as hackrf one 2014. It's not a problem of the portapack, because when I switched to my original hackrf it worked from the beginning.

Flashing portpack original software works, but when flashing portapack havoc bin it does not boot, it shows black screen, no logo, and in dmesg it does not appear any new device. I tried to reflash dfu, calibration data and spi flash without success. So there must be some chinese cloned hackrf boards with some problems. Maybe spi size? No more ideas to test. Thank you and congratulations for your development and work.

I noticed that once after about 30 boots I got into portapack havoc screen but without showing the splash screen logo.
