no sketch upload possible to Adafruit feather M0 express

Other Hardware 3rd Party Boards
1

hey,
although I am quite sure to have been installing correctly, no sketch upload to Adafruit feather M0 express is possible:
I am using IDE 1.8.2 (also tried: 1.6.12 and 1.8.2/3 nightly build)
I installed Arduino M0 boards by the board manager
I added the Adafruit path to preferences text
I installed Adafruit M0 boards by the board manager
I installed Adafruit Windows 7 drivers

Plugging the Feather M0 express, it is clearly listed in the device manager
e.g., COM7 Adafruit Feather M0 express

I can choose Adafruit Feather M0 express board in the IDE,
I can see and choose the activated port COM7 (it's the only one which is listed, but without further board specification, just COM7, and it vanishes when I unplug the Feather, so it's supposed to be the right one though)

I tried the simple examples sketch
Blink.ino

it compiles fine,
but upload fails:

PORTS {COM7, } / {COM7, } => {}
Uploading using selected port: COM7
...

what am I doing wrong or what am I missing?

Hi,

In the IDE did you also install "Arduino SAND boards". It will not program without that. The Adafruit Feather M0 driver or what ever works off the "Arduino SAND boards" compiler. I have some and they work well.

Hi,
I have the same Problem.
I have three Feather's, 2 M0 with RFM69 radio and one express.

The two with the RFM Module are just working great but the express ...

Same Problems as describt; additional if you open the Com Port, it writes "USBS".

The NeoPixel is green, the red LED is fading in and out ...

I have News.
There is a bug in the Bootloader - next step -> i will try to upload code with my linux machine.

Yep works great with Linux :wink:

Last Update from me in this Post:

I get it working with my Linux. I've updatet the bootloader and boot the pc back in Win7 and nothing ...

Seems not working with Windows. Back in Mint 17 I installed Circuit Python and what can I say ... it's just working.

Greetings

Update: it was a hardware issue, the Feather was damaged from the start. I bought a new one and this one is fine now.
