BG95-M3: fw update

IoT Modules LPWA Module
1

Hello everyone,

I need to upgrade the fw of the module BG95 to use CoAP protocol.
The module now it’s running this version:

at+qgmr
BG95M3LAR02A03_01.005.01.005

I received the new fw and QFlash, but I need to cross compile QFlash for an ARMv7 linux-based.
I’m trying to cross compile but It end up with these errors:

rm -rf out libs *.o QFlash QFlash *~

Thank you stephen.li. Is it possible to download the new version of QFlash tool, that includes the newest version of Qfirehose?

Hello!

Where can we download the latest QFlash tool for Linux available to update BG95-M3?

Thanks.

To upgrade the BG95-M3 you need only the Qfirehose tools, cross compile for your platform and then type the command:

$> ./QFirehose -f fw_dir_path
