AM2434: How to flash DMSC and Firmware permanently?

Part Number: AM2434
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

We have an AM2434_ALX LP Board with a new Flash module (S25HL512TFAMHI010), and we want to flash our app+sbl so we won't need the 'load_dmsc.js' script anymore when booting from QSPI MODE.

We are using SDK 8.05.00.24.

We followed almost every instruction about AM243x-LP (GP) out there and all attempts have failed.

We used the 'uart_uniflash.py' in UART BOOT MODE and all the flash operations were successful.

We see nothing when booting from QSPI MODE (it worked fine with the original FLASH module).

What is the solution to this problem?

  • Hello,

    We used the 'uart_uniflash.py' in UART BOOT MODE and all the flash operations were successful.

    Can you please share these successful flashing logs for confirmation?

    Thanks!

  • Hello,

    The flashing looks good. Can you please let me know the bootmode pins you are using?
