Known problems and limitations:
– STM32H7 microcontrollers: support integrity check for SFI/SMI:
◦ Only the devices with a bootloader version higher than 0x91 are supported.
◦ STM32CubeProgrammer does not support the devices with older bootloader versions. Users
must use STM32CubeProgrammer v2.9.0 to use devices with old bootloader versions.
– STM32H73xxx microcontrollers: support integrity check for SFI/SMI/SFIx:
◦ Only the devices with a bootloader version higher than 0x93 are supported.
◦ STM32CubeProgrammer does not support the devices with older bootloader versions. Users
must use STM32CubeProgrammer v2.9.0 to use devices with old bootloader versions.
– STM32H7Bxxx microcontrollers: support integrity check for SFI/SMI/SFIx:
◦ Only the devices with a bootloader version equal to or higher than 0x92 are supported.
◦ STM32CubeProgrammer does not support the devices with older bootloader versions. Users
must use STM32CubeProgrammer v2.9.0 to use devices with old bootloader versions.
– The SPI interface quits after starting without a connection.
– Option byte issue: impossible to decrease the RDP from the BB to AA state.
– The .hex file does not modify the WRP and PCROP option bytes of bank 2 for the devices with
512 Kbytes of dual-bank flash memory.
– Unable to change the option bytes when WWDG_SW and IWDG_SW are unchecked.
– STM32CubeProgrammer fails to download via J-Link
– STM32G491xx microcontrollers: Issues occur when erasing sectors in bank 2 memory
– Unable to read, write, or erase the external flash memory when TZEN is enabled
– STM32CubeProgrammer does not support combined SFI and SMI.
– SMI programming fails.
– SFI is not supported.
– Erasing the external flash memory is not supported using IWDG.
– GUI: the external memory edition is not supported via USB and UART while connected to the
OpenBootloader.
– Option bytes are not supported via OpenBootloader interfaces.
– SSP secret generation is not supported
– Impossible to modify the unlock_2b option byte value when programming the OB list.
– STM32U535/545 microcontrollers: SFIx is not supported.
– STM32U575VGT6: the start address of Flash-Bank2 is incorrect.
– STM32U59xxx microcontrollers: SFIx only supports the area E installation with OTFDEC region 1
(region 0 on TPC).
– STM32U59xxJ, STM32U5AxxJ, STM32U5Fxxx, and STM32U5Gxxx microcontrollers: wrong sector
size when DBANK is equal to zero
– STM32U5Fxxx and STM32U5Gxxx microcontrollers: SFIA not supported via SPI.
STM32WBA microcontrollers:
– OpenBootloader via SPI: cannot connect to STM32CubeProgrammer when the baud rate is below
3000 Bd.
– “Connect Under Reset” is not working when called by STM32CubeIDE.
Refer to the STM32CubeProgrammer Release note (RN0109) for further details.

Hi,
Can you make a light version of this programmer?
It takes more seconds to open the software.
We need basic programming tool for instant programming for some older stm series like stm32f0.
Pop up messages after programmings are annoying and can not be disabled.
The popup screens needs be clicked "OK button" 3 times individiaully on every programming cycle!!!
(We can see what is happening on the console too)
Please consider when o the new update
(I know CLI usage but for technician and other workers it is hard to arrange this usages)
As simple as possible we need, just select file and click program (Actually we dont no need to connect MCU for just programming)
Regards,
Murat

Make a simple GUI wrapper around the CLI? Or make a custom GUI program using the Programmer API & binaries? (development help can be summoned on fiverr or other such services).

Thank you for the answer Pavel.
I mean I need simple GUI from ST side (without connect issues and without pop-up messages)
For example the software below is very efficiently used (still we are using for F0 series, but not supports G0 series)
There is no need to connect or etc buttons. Just click "Program" button and does everything quietly.

Murat

Of course, ST folks are very capable and this isn't a challenge for them. But afraid they are a bit busy to deliver this in reasonable time. Not mentioning summer vacations.
For older STM32s such as F0 you can try the ST-Link utlity https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stsw-link004.html
It is not supported and does not know newer STM32s but should work for F0. It still runs on Windows 11. Maybe will run also on Linux with Wine.

Hi ST Team, do you have an ETA for a fix to 171192?
The programmer still only works on USB hubs.
Cheers

Hi istepne
You could write a python script that has a few buttons that trigger the commands to the CLI tool in the background.
That what I did for my prototype programming bench, there just a window where you can check the hex file name, and a "GO" button and that's it.
Actually, ChatGPT might be able to write that for you ;)

Please check the STM32CubeProgrammer Installer. i cant install it, pop up a message Java Runtime is missed or corrupted, i have both computer and in both is the same error, the last i did was upgrade windows.
