This was one of my very first posts on the Purism community forums, and has lost its ability to edit a long time ago. Maybe the post edit window could be extended to a more generous duration or changed to indefinite.
The instructions have been unofficially disseminated since:
Not by me it can’t. I don’t have that level of administrative access. I would recommend just making an updated post in that topic.
None of this worked for me!

If I use --stable it’s the same only preceded by:
Found disk image Build “stable” ‘Last stable librem5r4 build’ from Fri Jun 23 22:21:4
0 2023
before the output listed above. Even --skip-download and pointing to the home directory for manually installing the librem5r4.img alongside u-boot-librem5.imx and STILL yields the same results.
To note I am using Ubuntu but have also tried the suggested PureOS live USB option after much unrelated trouble getting balena-etcher to work only to find out there are no Wi-Fi drivers (not referenced in the suggested instructions) so that option is out the window (if it even makes a difference) unless I can figure out how to download/install drivers.
What version?
I use Ubuntu and I have successfully reflashed my phone. At this exact moment I have Ubuntu 22.04 LTS but it is badgering me for the official upgrade jump to 24.04 LTS as of the last few days.
Ubuntu Studio 24.04.1 LTS
Use Debian 12 ‘Bookworm’ instead on a USB drive and let us know if it makes any difference.
Thank you! I had the ISO downloaded anticipating I could give it a go. I re-imaged the USB drive and it worked without a hitch!! I would note that in addition to the python3-jenkins and python3-tqdm uuu will also need to ensure python3-yaml is installed as well for anyone who needs to do the same.
Feels great to finally have my Librem 5 up and running again!
Why does the script fail to find any image at all???

I’ve got everything installed on the computer according to the instructions, and I’ve already reflashed this way on this computer a couple of times in the past.
EDIT: And using the --stable argument results in:
xxx@xxx:~/librem5-flash-image$ ./scripts/librem5-flash-image --variant luks --stable

Sorry. You probably know this but are you actually in the “librem5-flash-image” folder when you execute the script?
xxx@xxx:~/librem5-flash-image$ ./scripts/librem5-flash-image --variant luks --skip-cleanup
Are you sure the Github repo is correct? (I am trying to be helpful).
I am pretty sure that the last time I did it, I used one of these images:
No, the Byzantium image being fetched from
storage.puri.smhas an old timestamp:Index of /librem5/images/byzantium/2023.06/librem5r4/luks/artifact/
There are a few newer Byzantium images with LUKS, but by default they are not fetched by the script:
https://storage.puri.sm/librem5/images/byzantium/2024.04/librem5r4/luks/artifact/
https://storage.puri.sm/librem5/images/byzantium/latest/librem5r4/luks/artifact/
I followed the instructions, even though I knew I had already installed everything previously:

I believe I simply extracted this link Index of /librem5/images/byzantium/2024.04/librem5r4/luks/artifact/ and placed the compressed image into the “librem5-flash-image” folder. I just copied and pasted it. I then ran the script:
./scripts/librem5-flash-image --variant plain --stable
I can DM you my the folder and image I used, if you like.
EDIT: I just remembered I installed the non-LUKS variant. You probably don’t want mine.
I’m just baffled as to why the script doesn’t find what it’s supposed to find.
Fair enough. I agree with you.
Unless… maybe https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/librem5-flash-image.git has changed since I last used it, and now doesn’t match?
EDIT: OK, I think that was the problem. I deleted the existing librem5-flash-image folder, and re-got the git. Now it’s downloading.
So I guess it had changed since the last time I used it.
Glad I could help!
git fetch
git status
would tell you whether the repostitory had changed. If so
git pull
would update.
Unfortunately, the reflash isn’t working for me anyway, due to this.
After downloading the image and (supposedly) connecting the phone in flash mode, it doesn’t find the phone. Guess my L5 really is fried. Time for an RMA.
