Re: "Bricked" after attempt to update FW #nanovna-v2 #firmware #crash #newbie #flashing

 

Read better....

You use STM-Cube, so you destroy bootloader (need use NanoVNA-App or QT for update in bootload mode)
Upload this in 0x08000000 address as before

Re: "Bricked" after attempt to update FW #nanovna-v2 #firmware #crash #newbie #flashing

 

One of user made full dump for GS-400

I cut remove bootloader and data, try upload it (hold right button and power on, connect to PC, and use NanoVNA-App or QT for update)

If not help you can try flash all data from dump (but need ST-Link), made full dump for your device

This info was a great help to me, thank you!

The program simply works from the source directory without having to install it. The installation allows you to run the program from anywhere, just have the main program in the path and the modules in the Python module path.
When I started hacking nanovna-saver on my Debian stable two years ago, I did just that:
git clone
cd nanovna-saver
Then I looked at the response of "python nanovna-saver.py" (e.g. missing modules) and installed the missing modules - preferably via apt - e.g.
apt install python3-numpy python3-scipy
until nanovna-save.py was satisfied - DONE!

I did pretty much the same thing..

Yes it is a GD32 - I can read it right on the chip.

The STM32CubeProgrammer Target information tab says :

Sevice ID 0x414
Flash size 256KB
CPU Cortex-M3

Also there is a 24 Mhz xtal, that appears to feed both the MCU CLOCK and the Si5351 if that is significant
Thank you for assisting to resurect this baby - which WAS working until I made the fatal mistake of trying to update the firmware,
Surely there's someone who can point me to the right firmware to reflash

Now I realize I should've saved the original firmware before updating but it's too late for that now,

Did you apt update (and/or) apt upgrade - the former updates the local list of packages and where to get them; the latter actually brings in the new packages to your system. You might not want the latter, and would rather upgrade selectively.

apt uses a local directory of packages and maybe it doesn't have python3.8 in it.

So I'd do a "sudo apt update" then do the python install.

Awesome. I have several times looked for RF Design Magazine on the web but never found it. World Radio History has a LOT of good stuff. An excellent resource.

Would be interested in a scan of the document if one becomes available.

I have a scanner if the recipient doesn't.
