      --image <imagefile>                 image to flash. Can be specified several times.

Examples:

  to run Proxmark3 client:

      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0                       -- runs the pm3 client
      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0 -f                    -- flush output every time
      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0 -w                    -- wait for serial port
      proxmark3                                    -- runs the pm3 client in OFFLINE mode

  to execute different commands from terminal:

      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0 -c "hf mf chk --1k"   -- execute cmd and quit client
      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0 -l hf_read            -- execute Lua script `hf_read` and quit client
      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0 -s mycmds.txt         -- execute each pm3 cmd in file and quit client

  to flash fullimage and bootloader:

      proxmark3 /dev/ttyACM0 --flash --unlock-bootloader --image bootrom.elf --image fullimage.elf

Note (Linux):
if the flasher gets stuck in 'Waiting for Proxmark3 to reappear on <DEVICE>',
you need to blacklist Proxmark3 for modem-manager - see documentation for more details:

proxmark3-common

This package contains scripts for the Proxmark3. It is dedicated to bringing the most out of the new features for Proxmark3 RDV4.0 new hardware and design but it will also support older hardware revisions.

pm3
root@kali:~# pm3 -h

Quick helper script for proxmark3 client when working with a Proxmark3 device

Description:
    The usage is the same as for the proxmark3 client, with the following differences:
     * the correct port name will be automatically guessed;
     * the script will wait for a Proxmark to be connected (same as option -w of the client).
    You can also specify a first option -n N to access the Nth Proxmark3 connected.
    To see a list of available ports, use --list.

Usage:
    pm3 [-n <N>] [<any other proxmark3 client option>]
    pm3 [--list] [-h|--help] [-hh|--helpclient]
    pm3 [-o|--offline]


Arguments:
    -h/--help        this help
    -hh/--helpclient proxmark3 client help (the script will forward these options)
    --list           list all detected com ports
    -n <N>           connect device referred to the N:th number on the --list output
    -o/--offline     shortcut to use directly the proxmark3 client without guessing ports

Samples:
    ./pm3                       -- Auto detect/ select com port in the following order BT, USB/CDC, BT DONGLE
    ./pm3 -p /dev/ttyACM0       -- connect to port /dev/ttyACM0
    ./pm3 -n 2                  -- use second item from the --list output
    ./pm3 -c 'lf search' -i     -- run command and stay in client once completed



pm3-flash
root@kali:~# pm3-flash -h
Quick helper script for flashing a Proxmark device via USB

Description:
    The usage is similar to the old proxmark3-flasher binary, except that the correct port name will be automatically guessed.
    You can also specify a first option -n N to access the Nth Proxmark3 connected on USB.
    If this doesn't work, you'll have to use manually the proxmark3 client, see "/usr/bin/proxmark3 -h".
    To see a list of available ports, use --list.

Usage:
    pm3-flash [-n <N>] [-b] image.elf [image.elf...]
    pm3-flash --list

Options:
    -b         Enable flashing of bootloader area (DANGEROUS)

Example:
     pm3-flash -b bootrom.elf fullimage.elf

pm3-flash-all
root@kali:~# pm3-flash-all -h
Quick helper script for flashing a Proxmark device via USB

Description:
    The correct port name will be automatically guessed and the stock bootloader and firmware image will be flashed.
    You can also specify a first option -n N to access the Nth Proxmark3 connected on USB.
    If this doesn't work, you'll have to use manually the proxmark3 client, see "/usr/bin/proxmark3 -h".
    To see a list of available ports, use --list.

Usage:
    pm3-flash-all [-n <N>]
    pm3-flash-all --list
