The flasher refused to flash your Proxmark3? Are there any messages in *red*? The most common reason is that the Proxmark3 RDV4 firmware recently got a new bootloader able to handle larger firmwares and... the image grew over 256k almost at the same time. So your old bootloader can't flash such new images. But it's easy, you just need to flash *first* the bootloader *only*, then the image.
```
./pm3-flash-bootrom.sh
./pm3-flash-fullimage.sh
pm3-flash-bootrom
pm3-flash-fullimage
```

You should be back on tracks now. In case the flasher complains about bootloader version, you can follow the button procedure and flash first your bootloader.

Depending how you launch the client, your working directory might be the root of the repository:
If Proxmark3 has been installed with `make install` or packaged for your distro, the binaries should be in your path and you can call them directly:
```
./pm3.sh ...
pm3

```

```
proxmark3-flasher <YOUR_PORT_HERE> /usr/local/share/proxmark3/firmware/fullimage.elf
