The message is Connect BROM failed

@gdegrez that's a well-known issue. You need to uninstall modemmanager in your computer. Please read that archive.org link that @Lakotaubp gave you to learn about it.

Edit to add the relevant part here for easier reading

With the latest versions of Ubuntu (14.04 and 14.10), the modemmanager package installed on the computer is not compatible with the MTK Flash Tool, so you will need to uninstall it first. This package is used to control the modem connection via USB. Any user configuration file will be maintained after uninstalling and installing the package. This means that we can reinstall the current configuration if required after using the tool.

Did that, and still get the same error (now running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS from a bootable USB stick on my MacBook). I guess the only remaining option is to remove the battery

@Marathon2422 Which other flash tool would you recommend?

gdegrez

@advocatux Did a last try with the Asus running 10.04 LTS. After uninstalling modemmanager, it finally worked
Thanks to all.
It now just remains to update to the latest version.

@gdegrez Correction: running 14.04 LTS

Now, I've got problems with the installation of the new version using the UBports installer on the Macbook. The flashing images step stalls
The error message is
Sending boot.img FAILED, no such file or directory.
I can always restart on the Asus...
