Been futzing for days...
So not long after posting this....
Battery out
Unplugged
Holding down top button (like a million times before)
Plug it in
Blue/Red flashing led
Software download screen
I had it plugged into my laptop
So I dropped a firmware onto the FDT exec... and the downloading firmware screen started working....
Some time later it was back....
Yes I have a netgear firmware - not the AT&T
So far it's stable... battery is charging again too
Sadly - I bought another on ebay already...
But since I have 2 hotspot plans... I will just take and use the new one to replace the Vz one...
All in all - with the exception of these formware issues... these are by far the best hotspots out there.... and I have owned 6 different others....
