Re: [Contiki-developers] STM32W

[Giacomo T. <gia...@gm...>]

Thanks so much for your reply. My problem with the firmware was little
different. After the start of the bootloader the utility said "Device
firmware is more recent than expected. Are you using an old version of
this software?". Anyway I used a win32 computer with hyperterminal
(Ymodem) and I was able to flash the CompositeForSTM32W.bin on the
MB951 and now in ubuntu it works perfect. My last (hope last) question
is how to have the same bootloader on the MB950. I try to press all
buttons but i can't access to the bootloader.
