If your PC/MAC/Linux? box can read it but the error looks like the Ducky cant read it then format would be likely cause. Also visually check there's no fluff/dirt in the sd card slot, squirt of can air if you got it. Else maybe you tried flashing one of the 3rd party firmware's and bricked the ducky? If so then try and get back to DFU boot mode by holding in button while plugging in. You may need drivers. But if hardware is detected (ideally a DFU device) then you should be able to recover. However if you cant get a working DFU bootmode (if there was a bad flash or not) then it looks like it may be a dead duck.

Kinda thinking I got a busted unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very rare that defective units come out of the factory, not impossible, just extremely rare. You can try to contact hak5 with your purchase order details etc. and maybe they can do something. Personally I would not be to hopeful as this could easily be something you have done to your own ducky and isn't necessarily a hardware fault. Good luck.

kaliham Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 hi everyone i have the exact same problem. the led remains red and no injector hits can someone help us? merc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob123 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Have y'all tried a different firmware on the duck? Try twin duck and see if that helps at all. Mine are on that firmware and I've never run into this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaliham Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 it was the sd card that was defective. the ducky works perfectly. change your cards if this happens to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da31 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hi friends I read all the posts here and I understand I have a similar problem, I tried to buy another sd card and in both cases the duck stays solid red. Do i Need to create a specific folder on the sd? Because I just put the bin file normally alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrizree Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 The inject.bin file is to be placed in the root of the SD card, no subfolder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrizree Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 You can also try to format the SD card in the same way as I've described it in my post linked below. It's aimed for the WiFi Pineapple Nano, but I use the same procedure for the Ducky as well, so it's "transparent". https://forums.hak5.org/topic/53331-wifi-pineapple-nano-sd-card-not-detecting/?do=findComment&comment=333618 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da31 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I appreciate your response, I put the file this way on two different sd cards (the same one I got in the order and another one I made sure I had for backup) in both cases as soon as I connect the ducky to the computer I get a solid red light. I have gone over the possible problems here (https://docs.hak5.org/hc/en-us/articles/360010555093-My-USB-Rubber-Ducky-shows-a-solid-red-LED-now-what-) and I can not troubleshoot where the problem is in my case. maybe someone how sees this can share some wisdom with me ?

kaliham Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hi i had the same problem i had to test 4 different sd card. in the end a 16gb sd works very well. I advise you to try again with other sd card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da31 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 The truth is I have already tried with three different sd cards, and the problem remains, the support gave me steps to go through them but they also did not really solve the problem and I am pretty stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
