HTTP Application Update

RichSurprenant

I normally reprogram the feather using newtmgr to write the app_update.bin file. That works great.
I need to be able to remotely upgrade firmware.

I am using v1.4.1, http_application_update to download the app_update.bin file from a server and update. I then have the application do a sys_reset(0) and it boots the updated application! Perfect.

The next time I reboot, it reloads the version that I programed with newtmgr.
Also, the reboot takes a long time, so I believe it has a backup stored somewhere? Is there any documentation that describes where this image is stored?

How can I make the http_application_update be permanent. Am i missing a step?

Make sure to call:

boot_write_img_confirmed();

From your downloaded application!
That fixed it.

Yep, otherwise the bootloader assumes a broken image and rolls back.

Edited: the web app reported an error, so I retried … and found afterward the first approach successful. I’m not allowed to remove my comment, but maybe someone else removes this duplicate.

Guilty of not including that as well. Glad you got it @RichSurprenant
