bricked rp2040, tried the given steps to recover but no recovery

[schaefer01]

CircuitPython version

adafruit 8.2.4 on rp2040

Code/REPL

See #8741 for steps to reproduce (summary: invoke an out-of-date adafruit_ntp library)

Behavior

the rp2040 circuitpy goes away, whatever you put into RPI-RP2 does not return with a CIRCUITPY drive

Description

tried flash_nuke.uf2, and it did not result in creating a CIRCUITPY drive on reboot or power cycle.

I followed flash_nuke.uf2 by Feather_RP2040.uf2, this too, did not result in creating a CIRCUITPY drive on reboot or power cycle.

Additional information

No response

What is Feather_RP2040.uf2? That is not the name of a circuitpython build. which board are you using?

[dhalbert]

You cannot brick the RP2040 - it has a ROM-based bootloader.

[schaefer01]

If you go to URL: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-feather-rp2040-pico/downloads

then press on the button below the label: "The Feather_RP2040.uf2 file below is the code that ships on the Feather RP2040."

The file downloaded is Feather_RP2040.uf2.

By brick, I mean, you can't get a CIRCUITPY drive.

[schaefer01]

The board says "feather" on it.

If there was a circuitpython drive before then try to connect to the device via a serial monitor and run storage.erase_filesystem in the repl

[schaefer01]

I'll do this after the holiday break

@schaefer01 OK, that is not CircuitPython, that is the factory test program. Please download CircuitPython from here:

No need, I was using the wrong .uf2 file

thank you!
