LG290P error 0X108 during firmware update

Hello. When trying to update the firmware of my LG290P chip on a Mozihao board, I got the following error:

[00:07:35.501] Exceeding the maximum number of retry attempts! [00:07:35.505] Send firmware failed, error: 0x108 [00:07:35.507] qgnss_flash upgrade failed, return: [-1]

I haven’t found a similar case on the forum, nor any explanation in the firmware update guide :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

I think I’ve bricked the chip because I had set the baud rate to 115200 during a previous setup, and I completely forgot to reset the settings to default… :unamused_face: so now it’s impossible to revert. The connection to the chip seems to have failed. The red light is off, and the QGNSS is stuck on $PQTMVERNO*58
with no response from the module.

Another possible problem is that I’m using Ubuntu, I launched QGNSS with Wine, and the USB connection might have failed.

I’m afraid I’ve damaged my module :grimacing:, but maybe someone here will have a solution.

Hi @2M2C

Thank you for reaching out

Have you try to upgrade with QGNSS using PC ?

Best regards

Can you send me the log file regarding the firmware upgrade from the QGNSS?

you can send me through email
yong.huang@quectel.com

I’ll send it to you right away. As for the PC, I’ll try to find one. Just one more detail: I wanted to install firmware version LG290P03AAN02A01.

Hello. It’s fixed. As you advised, I tried flashing the firmware again (the same one I had tried to flash before) under Windows, and it worked. We’ll know for posterity that QGNSS + WINE + UBUNTU = bad idea.

Thank you.
