G120 to 0.7

TinyCLR OS
1

hmmm, using TinyCLR Config to upgrade a G120 Fez Cobra II G120
from v0.4 to 0.7 I get “There was an error during the upload”

I can re-install v0.4
But 0.5, 0.6, 0.7 all fail…

Are you using the Update Firmware button or the Loader tab?

3

Yes Update Firmware, it checks for updates, then says “no update found”
The firmware sources file seems ok

1,Network,http://files.ghielectronics.com/downloads/TinyCLR/Firmwares/FirmwareList.xml

and if I download this i do see an entry for G120 0.7

Loader tab, Update “There was an error duiring the upload” if I manually download 0.7 G120 FW from github downloads

4

Where are you getting the G120 0.7.0 from GitHub?

5

via github link to
http://docs.ghielectronics.com/tinyclr/downloads.html

6

Have you verified the hash of the file you downloaded matches what is listed on the site

7

yes it does match
but havent hashed the actual file to see if it also matches…

— have now, and yes the file also hashes to correct hash

8

Do you have a different PC you can try the update on?

9

I’ll try tomorrow… but cant see why .4 reload works fine on this pc

10

hmmmm…
A new fresh windows 10 install (updated) laptop.
Same error.
Noticed v0.8 has been released since, and that also says "error during upload"
But can ping, erase the G120
hmmmmm… I’ll try my G400

OK, seems TinyConfig v8 needs to have Bootloader v2.0.4
Had to update using TeraTerm serial port / xmodem
I saw that it needed v2
http://docs.ghielectronics.com/tinyclr/tinyclr_config.html
But I did have v2.0.2 and thought that was enough.
Should have tried getting EVERYTHING up to date (of course, and I thought I was, didn’t see 2.0.4 pop up)
TinyConfig now works and can now upload v 0.5,0.6,.0.7 firmware and seems to communicate as expected (apart from a few crashes when swaping comm ports, seems to occasionaly not like seeing comm ports disapear maybe…)

Sorry about the confusion around loader versions. Newer firmwares do indeed need v2.0.4. Happy to hear you got it working though.
