UMO+ firmware problem with Cura 3.6.0

[dampmaskin 0]

I flashed my UMO+ via USB with Cura 3.6.0, using the automatic option. This zombified my printer: It blanked its screen and seized up the steppers. I power cycled the printer, same result. When trying to home the printer via Cura, the only result was a grinding noise that lasted until I power cycled the printer.

 

I tried to re-flash the firmware several times, to no avail. 

 

I then downloaded Cura 15.4.6 and flashed the firmware from there. That solved it.

In Cura 3.6 there is a problem which offers the wrong firmware for the UMO+.

Cure 3.51 should also work, but I don't know if the firmware is newer than 15.4.6.

Ok, I suspected it was something in that vein. I just wanted to tell the story in case the problem wasn't already known.

From what I found reading up on my problem, there's no new firmware for the UMO+ since 15.4 or thereabouts, so I think I'm good. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Do you know if this has been reported on github?

[Smithy 1,146]

No sorry, but good idea, if no one report this bug and will never be fixed.

Done. https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/4914

It wasn't reported on github yet, but it was reported on the forum before (It's already in our sprint).
