Issue when programming S29GL064S NOR flash using STM32 HAL libraries (HAL_NOR_Program & HAL_NOR_Read functions)

Hello everyone,

Using a custom board designed by myself, I can't manage to program the content of an S29GL064S NOR Flash. I'm pretty confident with the schematics and layout as, when calling the function

HAL_NOR_Read_ID(&hnor1, &NOR_Id)

I get the following result

These values seem to match what's expected according to the NOR Flash datasheet (link here)

When I try to program the memory content using the small piece of code written here:

#define NOR_MEMORY_ADRESS1 ((uint32_t)0x60000000)
 
int main(void)
{
 /* USER CODE BEGIN 1 */
 uint32_t Address = 0;
 uint16_t ReadData = 0;
 uint32_t ii=0;
 uint16_t WriteData =0;
 uint16_t *pWriteData = &WriteData;
 uint16_t *pReadData = &ReadData;
 uint32_t *pAddress = &Address;

 HAL_NOR_Read_ID(&hnor1, &NOR_Id);
 
 WriteData = 0xbeef;
 for(ii=0; ii < 100; ii++)
 {
 Address = NOR_MEMORY_ADRESS1 + ii;
 HAL_NOR_Program(&hnor1, pAddress, pWriteData);
 
 if(HAL_NOR_GetStatus(&hnor1, Address, 1000) != HAL_NOR_STATUS_SUCCESS)
 {
 Error_Handler();
 }
 }
 
 
 for(ii=0; ii < 100; ii++)
 {
 Address = NOR_MEMORY_ADRESS1 + ii;
 HAL_NOR_Read(&hnor1, pAddress , pReadData);

{
 /* USER CODE BEGIN Error_Handler_Debug */
 /* User can add his own implementation to report the HAL error return state */
 while(1)
 {
 
 }
 /* USER CODE END Error_Handler_Debug */
}

When I run this piece of code, here are the results I'm getting:

For some reason, I seem to be getting the value of "ii" in each cell of my "Array" while that's obviously what's not requested in my code. I never manage to read back the value "0xbeef". I went through the content of the functions "HAL_NOR_Program" and "HAL_NOR_Read" and they seem to be pretty consistent with what's requested in the datasheet (Table 10.17 "Command Definitions").

I really tried to go to the bottom of this to make sure I did everything correctly before asking for help but I'm really lost here. Would anybody know what's wrong with my code and can help me fixing it?

Here is a print screen of my NOR Flash configuration in STM32CubeMX:

I hope it's clear enough, don't hesitate if you need more details.

Thanks in advance for your help!
