CC3235MODSF: uniflash error when MCU image is not selected -10341

Hi,

This error means a programming error of the SLI image.

Can you try Uniflash instead and see if it works?

Shlomi

which Uniflash do you mean?

is it any different than uniflash_6.2.0 ?

No, 6.2.0 should be OK.

Is the log screen above taken from Uniflash or from CCS?

Shlomi

of course it is a quote taken from uniflash console.

I wanted to flash only the service pack (when MCU image is cleared the JTAG image is kept by the bootloader - or at least this was the case a yea ago).

We store the project separate so I can zip it and send it. Question is how could we send you the file?

can you share it here or does it contain any secret information?

cc3235modsf_to_ti.zip

Here is the project file without the MCU image if any files missing just add dummy bin or text file

Hi,

I cannot import it back to Uniflash.

How did you create it?

did you copy it from your workspace directory?

if so, please export it from Uniflash GUI as follows.

Regards,

Shlomi

This is a zipped archive that is stored under imagecreator\bin\projects if you copy it there it will show up as a project.

Exporting doesnt work because it would add custom binary files that we are not allowed to disclose to 3rd party.

Hi,

It does not appear as a project.

I also cannot flash the SLI since it is a different MAC address so it fails on something else.

In any case, when i look into the json ImageConfig.xml file, i can see that the mcuflashimg is still there. Does the project you sent me include it?

Shlomi

Interesting this is what we use with uniflash and works for all.

Try to create a project named "cc3235modsf" and maybe overwrite the content with my files?

The MCU image is ofc in the xml. My issue is: the moment I remove the mcuimage i can not flash the device so of course it will be part of the project.

No, it doesn't work.

The only way is to export and then import on my side.

Anyway, when you say you remove it from Uniflash, are you completely delete it via the User Files tabs? 

Can you confirm you do not see the mcuflashimg under the File directory on the right side window?

If you do not flash but only create the image, is it created OK or do you get an error?

Shlomi

I'm talking about the MCU image, not a custom user file.

This is the configuration i want to flash:

Hi,

I understand this is what you want but I am suggesting to go through the advanced menu as below and make sure mcuflashimg is not there.

Also, make sure that if you do not flash but only create the image, it is created OK.

Shlomi

When I clear the MCU field as posted above the mcuimage is also not present in the advanced file list.

We do however update the project sometimes using the command line using flags: --flags=failsafe,secure,publicwrite --overwrite

Could it be that the console option adds configuration to the project that conflicts/can not be handled by the GUI project editor?

Well, anything is possible.

I checked it via the advanced menu and this way I am positive that it is not there.

Also mcuflashimg should disapear from the XML that I mentioned above (in your case it is still on the XML).

Shlomi

And when is this XML updated? On my side when I add/remove the MCU image the XML is not updated.

Tried also  to manually remove the MCU image lines from the XML then go back to the GUI and add/remove the MCU image the XML is not updated.

XML is updated on my side when i do it from GUI.

of course you need to create the image if you want to get it updated (and not just remove it from the GUI).

See screen capture below:

When I add/remove the MCU image and click on the create image i see the XML updated.

However at the end of the flashing process I get this above reported error when I do not designate an MCU image.

This error indicates that you have a file (most likely the mcuflashimg) that you try to program and that fails security test (signature test upon closing the file).

I am not sure how you can proceed without sending me the complete exported image.

What if you create a new project that only includes the SP and certificate store. Do you still get this issue?
