Bug Description
It happens from time to time that flashing the firmware fails, and a person is left with an NXT that is clicking, indicating it is in firmware update mode. Enchanting does not recognize an NXT in firmware update mode, and provides the user with no means to reflash the firmware; they have to resort to alternative software to resolve the issue.
Enchanting should recognize an NXT in firmware update mode, and flash it.
This issue still occurs with Enchanting v0.1.

Enchanting now comes with a stand-alone 'Flash Firmware' application (that runs nxjflashg, a tool that comes with leJOS). This allows users to flash the firmware even if the unit is in firmware update mode.
I think I'll leave this ticket open for now. It would be nice to have a better solution.
