Cannot load Wireless firmware into STM32WB55 Nucleo board

[zabel]

Hi, am using the STM32WB55 Nucleo board. My problem is, currently I

seem not to have a CPU2 wireless stack loaded and I fail to load file

stm32wb5x_BLE_Stack_full_fw.bin loaded into the Flash. I am using the

STM32CubeProgrammer V2.12.0. When selecting on the Firmware Upgrade

Service Button and clicking on "Read FUS infos", I get:

FUS State: FUS_IDLE

FUS Status: FUS_NO_ERROR

FUS Version: v0.0.0.0

FUS Operator: v3.1.0

When I click on "Start Wireless Stack", this happens:

So it seems, there is no Wireless Stack present. And if I try to load

it, this also fails: I want to use stm32wb5x_BLE_Stack_full_fw.bin

(V1.15). From the release note, I learn that the correct start address

is 0x080CE000. I have the

"First install" checkbox deselected, and the "Verify download"

selected. The Start Address field is set to 0x080CE000. On clicking

"Firmware Upgrade", I get this log:

I have found some similar questions:

• Issue: Attempting to flash firmware onto coprocessor on STM32WB55RGV6

results in Error: FUS_STATE_ERR_UNKNOWN

• [STM32WB55 Nucleo] Unable to update FUS or the wireless stack

(FUS_STATE_ERR_UNKNOWN)

but both threads do not seem to have a solution.

I also read the AN5185 as well as the STM32WB_FUS wiki I am not allowed to post a link here, so I will split it:

"stm32mcu/wiki/Connectivity:STM32WB_FUS"

on

wiki.st.com/

but to no avail.

I tried to identify the FUS version. IPCCDBA option byte is 0, but the whole

memory starting at 02x0030000 contains only 0x000000, so I don't find

the Device info table.

The SBRV option bytes contain 0x3d800, so this seems to indicate I

have FUS V0.5.3 loaded.

These seem to be the relevant option bytes on my board:

RDP: 0xAA (nor read protection)

nBOOT0: 1

nBOOT1: 1

ESE: unchecked

SFSA: 0xd4

FSD, DDS, C2OPT, NBRSD: checked

SNBRSA: 0x13

BRSD: checked

SBRSA: 0x0a

SBRV: 0x3d800

Any help would by nice!

Regards

On left side release html info is step by step howto update. Primary first need update FUS.

[zabel]

The problem is, that step 4 of that instruction does not work, i.e. I have no reliable information about the current FUS version (0.0.0.0 is not mentioned as possible value). I only assume it is 0.5.3 from the SBRV value, but I am not sure. And I don't want to brick my board.

Use GUI Programmer not cli

[zabel]

Just the same problem, see above: "FUS Version: v0.0.0.0"

And reading from 0x2003000 on gives ony 0x000000 for the whole range.

[MM..1]

Send PM teamviewer

[MM..1]

If you dont sucess maybe this help Unable to start FUS

[zabel]

Had no success, could not update the FUS (ended up with "FUS_STATE_ERR_UNKNOWN). But your reference looks promising, at least the symptoms look very similar to the observed ones. Once again thank you for your help!

[TillerBelotti]

I have same issue, but with STM32WB15. Today I was updating it to 1.16 and got the same symptoms, option bytes are slightly different:

SBRV: 0x8400

SFSA: 0x31

When I click on read FUS infos, sometimes it shows FUS Version v23.ffffffa8.7d.ffffffef, but 99% of the time it shows 0.0.0.0. Start FUS always gives an error.

[MM..1]

Try slow down stlink speed from 4M to 400kHz or less
