## `pm3-flash*` stops and warns about up-to-date firmware images
^[Top](#top)
The Proxmark3 software and firmware is connected tightly. The strong recommendation is to use the client with a Proxmark3 device flashed with firmware images from same compilation time.
In the flash process you might get this message because the firmware images is downloaded or distributed and you have compiled your own client. Ie, not from same compilation time.
To minimize the risks the flasher warns about it and stops.
```
Make sure to flash a correct and up-to-date version
You can force flashing this firmware by using the option '--force'
```
You need to add the `--force` param in order to continue flashing.
```sh
pm3-flash-all --force
```
