and is there anything I can do to fix, short of hoping to receive an 
updated unbroken firmware for the UPS from a support team which ignores me ?

Gigabyte F2A88X-D3H with AMD A8-6600K works fine with heimdall which I 
used to connect to a Samsung S2+ and now to a Samsung A3 (2016) . Some 
similar board ( I do not recall exactly what model was it, could have 
been either identical or DH3 which is basically the same motherboard 
with some minor modifications) was used by my colleague from the IT 
support dept 2-3 years ago with my phone as well. The packages that I 
have installed are :

The culprit is occurring on a Dell R310 which has:
