1. Disconnect the Sun SPOT from the USB cable 2. Kill all the ant and java processes listening on the port 3. Hold the control button in for a few seconds until a double red flash indicates that the Sun SPOT has powered down (NB doing this *after* disconnecting). 4. Type this command at a command prompt: ant -Dport=xxx upgrade where xxx is the port name 5. Plug it in as soon as the ant script starts to complain that the port isn't available. *Don't* push the reset button: this isn't necessary and may confuse. 

Problem: Some spots is unable to deepsleep Cause: some spot properties prevent from deep sleep Solution: spot.mesh.enable = false

Problem: Method "thresholdExceeded" always works even though we didn't move the spot or move the spot when it is in deepsleep. Cause: I suppose that the events occurred when we do move and wait for sending the messages when the receiver is available. Solution: Disable ThresholdEvent before starting in deepsleep mode -- accel.enableThresholdEvents(IAccelerometer3D.ALL_AXES, false);

Problem: When we use sleepMgr.ensureDeepSleep(...), it goes to UnableToDeepSleepException even we don't have any thread running. The error says that "another thread is runnable within x", Cause: Because of many system threads which run from time to time, sunspot won't let us do ensuredeepsleep. Solution: We just call the command to block every thread running which is Thread.sleep(...) or Utils.sleep(...). Then, the spot will go to deepsleep. Note: In my experiment, OTA doesn't affect with deepsleep mode. References: https://www.sunspotworld.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=7755
