I attempted to load a new IOS image on my C3850 but ran into an issue I have never seen before nor have I found any guidance online about it. When I console into the device via Putty, I get no prompt only ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ lines when I hit ENTER. I can't get out of it even after a hard reboot. Any thoughts?
Thank you!!!

what was the IOS you were trying to load , did you capture the logs all before you loading the image ?
what LED you see from of the Device ?
May be try different baud rates as suggested.
Configure the baud rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match the console port default characteristics:
9600 baud
8 data bits
1 stop bit
No parity
None (flow control)

Hello,
I was attempting to load cat3k_caa-universalk9.16.12.05b.SPA.bin. I did not capture the logs prior to loading the image. The LED on the device shows the SYST light blinking rapidly.
I have those parameters set in Putty when I get the above mentioned image.

I tried different BAUD rates, and 57600 worked. Now I'm brought to the Switch: line. So I guess I'll start troubleshooting that now!
