MKS TFT35 v1.0 firmware update stuck on Updating Configuration

[nisi1t]

I have a MKS TFT35 version 1.0 display, i try to update the firmware MKS_TFT35_V1_0.27.x.bin

• the card contain file MKS_TFT35_V1_0.27.x.bin -> renamed as MKSTFT35.bin
• config.ini
• TFT35 folder (from THEME_Unified Menu Material theme)

after inserting card firmware start to update, pass 100% , start to upload fonts and images, and on the step Updating Configuration it load 130 keywords and stop there.

Powering down after 30 min i see that MKSTFT35.bin renamed into MKSTFT35.cur - i understand that firmware is processed, the TFT35 folder and config.ini is unchanged

I did tried with a config.ini unchanged, i verified to be saved with UTF-8 encoding, formatting SDCARD and tried again

Nothing help to finish the firmware update,

Is something else i can do ?

Try another SD card

Copy a file named "reset.txt" to your sd card, insert it and restart your display. The display sometimes can get stuck because of the way the settings are stored(in program memory). This is also the reason why you will lose all your settings (like touchscreen calibration) after a firmware flash.

There is no need to wait 30 minutes when flashing a firmware, you cannot brick you display by interrupting a flash because the boot loader that flashes the new firmware is not affected by a firmware flash.

reseting or changing card did not work, the fix was to compile the firmware and from code debugging i notice that if i ad a small delay when the config is written on EEPROM the settings are saved , without the delay the code hang on EEPROM update
