### Describe the bug

Hello! Sorry if this is in the wrong area, I’m new to this website. I am having issues with flashing my Comma3. I have followed the directions on the flashing website, using the correct ports at the correct times. I bought a high end USB-C cable with the fastest data transfer speed I could find. I am using a 5w USB-A power supply with a 2.4 amp output that I am plugging a USB-A to USB-C cord into. I am plugging in port 1 (bottom) first and connecting to computer/android phone, then plugging in the power supply to port 2 (top). When the power is plugged in, the LED power indicator is blinking blue. I have attempted to flash several times on an HP desktop computer that I downloaded zadig on, a Mac laptop, and a Galaxy A35, and I have attempted to flash on each of these multiple times. Once the flashing system portion of the flash gets to 100%, it moves on to User Data. It gets to 50% complete, and then fails every single time. I bought my Comma3 for 2200 when it first came out, and I saw trade in gives me about $250 towards the new C3X, which would put me at spending another $750… so I’m desperately trying to exhaust all options before going that route. Any help is majorly appreciated.
