123G doesn't run code which I flash using LMFlash (compiled by ARM gcc)

If I flash using OpenOCD it works just fine.

Though interestingly OpenOCD doesn't work on one of my 123G boards and works on another.

LMFlash flashes everything fine but code doesn't run (even after hard reset) on 123G.

Code is compiled using "https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded" toolchain.

Any ideas?

Hello Pavel,

Did you connect a debugger to see where the code is stuck?

I haven't figured out how to connect from Eclipse to my board with debugger yet. Doing this right now.

I figured it out, I had to run:

arm-none-eabi-objcopy.exe -O binary "${BuildArtifactFileBaseName}.elf" "${BuildArtifactFileBaseName}.bin"

I was uploading ELF file not BIN. Need to stop working at night.

Hello Pavel,

The LMFlashProgrammer only accepts bin file format unless you moved the file type to all files.

If I simply rename ELF file to BIN it doesn't work. It flashes it successfully but it doesn't run. After running command line above everything is working.

Hello Pavel

ELF and BIN files are different formats
