Bootload the GAP8 via WiFi

[arainbilal]

The issue is the GAP8 old bootloader. As mentioned on this page, "The symptom of an old bootloader is that flashing of firmware via the radio stops at 4% or 99% and does not finish." The firmware is stuck at 99% and never finishes. Unfortunately, I do not have a jtag enabled programmer (Olimex ARM-USB-TINY-H JTAG or Jlink).

Is it possible a workaround using the python script bootload.py. I can get the wifi connected. Any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, the issue with the old GAP8 bootloader, where firmware flashing fails at 99%, cannot be resolved with the bootload.py script. This script is designed to flash a user application via Wi-Fi, but it does not update the actual bootloader. The only way to flash the bootloader is by using a debugger such as the Olimex ARM-USB-TINY-H.
