Bluetooth low-energy advertising does not start on a custom board.

I'm trying to make my custom STM32WB55 board.

Recently, I succeed to start programming the STM32WB55VGY6TR but the advertisement of custom Bluetooth low energy does not start.

I tested programming the Nucleo-WB55 board with the same coding and it was successfully coded and advertised custom Bluetooth. So, I can conclude that there is no problem with the code.

I checked what is happening in the microcontroller using USART communication, but there is no wireless firmware version (It was 1.0.0 in the Nucleo-WB55 board) and no message regarding starting advertisements like below.

Is there any possible reason it does not work?

My RF structure in the custom board looks like below.

This problem is solved by my hand.

The firmware for FUS and BLE stack is upgraded using STM32cubeProgrammer and must start "Start wireless Stack".

Following this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LvfBC_P6eg&t=4s

Then, the BLE advertisement and wireless connection will work very well.

Thanks to all of you guys.

I successfully upgraded the stack of my microcontroller following this video.

Now the wireless version is 1.14.0 but still, the advertisement doesn't start.....

Is there any possible reason?
