The only thing you can try IMHO is to make sure you use a QuickCharge 2.0 or 3.0 compatible power supply. It is important for the M1 to receive 9V when running without a battery, as with only 5V it might not be able to draw enough power and crash.
If you are unlucky, it crashed during the firmware update — if this happens the device might be "bricked".

If you can get it to boot, try accessing the web interface and check (and if needed, update) the firmware version.
