Thunderbolt 3 flashed cards are not working with X299 UD4

[KamuiX299]

Hi all

Only want to report... i flashed 2 cards successfully (GC-Alpine Ridge and Titan Ridge 2.0)
Both cards are showing their 2 ports under macos in the System Report Thuderbolt/USB4 with 40Gb....
Interesting is, that my Thunderbolt Devices (SSD and Dock) are detected, but aren´t working at all...
The SSD is not mounted and the USB Ports of the Dock are dead...
The NVMe Thunderbolt Controller and the USB eXTensible Controller Driver ist not loaded

At last i flashed back the original firmware and now at least the thunderbolt SSD is working again, cause the NVme Driver is loaded again, but the dock does not work...

So be careful, using a flashed Card with your PC can result in big problems...

It's not true. There are several reports with the flashed firmware with 100% success rate. It could be your implementation instead.
