Trying to run a QCA6164 card myself on a Lenovo 3-14 laptop. Sems I've gotten as far as you. Prepared Ath10k hw2.1 board.bin and firmware-4.bin for hw2.1 using windows binary driver. (And assemble.py, disassemble.py tools linked elsewhere) Board.bin seems to load and execute fine. But after that when loading firmware-4.bin, it ends up with Unable to write to the device. I see it starts sending firmware-4.bin and first 256 bytes ce_send fine. 2nd ce_send 256 bytes seem to also ce_send fine, however after that bmi_wait times out.
