Pycom-fwtool fo EOAN #383

Open hdhk opened 4 years ago

hdhk commented 4 years ago

Hi,

(sysname='LoPy4', nodename='LoPy4', release='1.20.0.r3', version='V1.9.4-398a290 on 2019-09-19', machine='LoPy4 with ESP32', lorawan='1.0.2',)

1. First I did: dfu-util -D expansion31_0.0.11.dfu

Result: wrong mode ef99 , not ef98

  1. Searched for different ways to switch to update mode, couldn't find. Looked for tutorials, gave up.
  2. Next pycom-fwtool is NOT for eoan (ubuntu 19.10) available.

Is the first step necessary? If so, how do I get the board into UpdateMode 0x99? With or with out the module on the extension board? When will the version of the pycom-fwtool for Ubuntu 19.10 be released?

Best regards, HDHK

hi @hdhk The dfu update is not required, most likely you have already the last Expansion Board firmware, released 1 year ago. Fyi, wrong mode ef99 , not ef98 is because the board is not in update mode, probably the steps explained here https://docs.pycom.io/pytrackpysense/installation/firmware/#using-dfu-util-with-pytrack-pysense-and-expansion-board-v3 are not done (and update mode is just for 7-8 seconds).

We'll look into releasing Firmware Update tool for Ubuntu 19.10. Could you try the generic linux release from https://software.pycom.io/downloads/linux-1.16.1.html?

Thanks, Catalin

Hi Catalin, I have trouble with that linux release in case of fonts. I get a "white" screen. BR HDHK

Which glib version did you tried? Could you try them both? Anyway, we'll try releasing the Ubuntu 19 version.

thanks
