Can't flash the MIMXRT1170-EVKB board

[amira]

Hello @Habib_Melchor_Santos,

As I mentioned in the other topic, I'm facing a problem to flash the board MIMXRT1170-EVKB, I tried the two proposed solutions ( RT board recovery for debugger connect issues - NXP Community) but I got the following issues:

I also find on the community a trick to solve this problem (OpenSDA Serial and Debug Adapter) if it is the only solution, is it possible to have more detail how to apply it.

Hello @Gavin_Jia 

Yes I used the serial download mode for the method in the screenshot.

I also tried your proposed solution, but unfortunately it did not solve the problem!

Hi @amira ,

Thanks for your update.

But from your screenshot of the error message, it looks like it's in SPD mode and the usb connection is not recognized. This should be a hardware issue. You can try either usb or uart method. Erasing flash in SPD mode is the safest and solidest method.

Also, please connect the usb directly to the computer and not to a hub to prevent introducing other problems.

Best regards,
Gavin

Hello @Gavin_Jia 

I changed the configuration on the MCUXpresso Secure Provisioning Tool, I select the board that I'm using (MIMXRT1170-EVKB) and choose the UART method, the board is connected but the mode is on Flashloader (which is not the same as mentioned on the documentation, ROM bootloader mode) I mean this doc (https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-RT-Knowledge-Base/RT-board-recovery-for-debugger-connect-issues/ta...), So, can I continue the other steps or it is necessary to set the ROM bootloader first? if so, how?

Thanks.

Hi @amira ,

Thanks for your interest in NXP MIMXRT series!

For this method you screenshot, you need to put the EVK in serial download mode before connecting the board to the PC. Please make sure this is done before proceeding afterward.

I usually use MCUBootUtilities for this, here's a document that might help you.

Best regards,
Gavin
