I think the problem is related to this:

This probably means that the downloader does not receive a reply in time
and continues to download the code. You can try to fix it with this
modification:

     } else if (dnload.write_ptr >= dnload.data + dnload.data_len) {
       printf("finished\n");
   +   dnload.serial_fd.when = BSC_FD_READ;
       dnload.write_ptr = dnload.data;
       return 1;
     }

As a consequence of still sending data to the phone, the firmware
could crash because there was a bug which is already fixed in the
latest GIT version. You can check if you already have the latest
version:

    #define MSGB_NUM 16
    struct supermsg {
     uint8_t allocated;

Maybe the above helps to solve the problem.

Best regards,
