Communication not working & demos not working after instructrions

[narner]

Hi there, I'm using a Flick HAT with a Raspberry Pi 3 B+.

I've followed all the instructions for installing the Flick library, as well as made sure that my i2c interface was configured.

Running gpio mode 17 out; gpio write 17 0; gpio write 17 1; i2cdetect -y 1 gives me the following output:

     0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  a  b  c  d  e  f
00:          -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
10: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
20: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
30: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
40: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
50: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --       

And running flick-demo gives me the following Firmware info:

Did you install wiringpi before loading that?

Is the HAT definitely connected properly to the board? And i2c is enabled?

[narner]

Yes to all those - wiringpi is installed and ic2 is enabled And the HAT is connected like so:
