It is the custom version of @JRD McLAREN MRE+sd 5.55rc
Best I can do is ship my unit of custom version to @mck1117

How many of affected boards do you have? Worst case you would be shipping to Matt if we cannot get this one already in USA to start.

So any ideas?
is it something at newer firmware's that needs to be changed for "STM32F407 VGT6" ?

This means customs/taxes and maybe months without my daily-driver :cry:

I have the same series on my boards ...
AndreyB probably too ...

stayros32001 both boards have the same MCU series .. ?? (from Malaysia) ..

EDITED:
hmm AndreyB's old one has the same MCU rev.

Re: Custom microRusEFI with SD card

as we discuss here: https://rusefi.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=46765#p46765

some MCUs / MREs have problem to start after fw upgrade, due to OpenBLT.
last working version is 20220703 - without OpenBLT

I'm try to flash "all my boards" with STM32F407VGTx as I can..
I have boards with MCU from Malaysia, Philipines, none from China

all STM32F407VGT6 from MYS has problem (my last used one, purple and "UA" boards) (aprox 8 boards, AndreyB has one)
STM32F407VGT7 from PHY has problem (first black edition) (only 2 boards, one in my car)
STM32F407VGT6 from PHY is OK (first black edition)
STM32-DISCOVERY sometimes work, sometimes not ... (strange) full erase & re-flash can fix it (tested from 20220703 to 20221117)

and the questions are ...

Can rusefi developers do something with this or not .. ??
It is question for OpenBLT / Feaser developers ..??
Can I make / build "custom firmware" without OpenBLT from source .. ?? ... and test it ..??
(..with STM BLT)

We can't hold the origin source of MCU for the future, or make a choice before buying...

(Affected user are: "me" - not important, stayros32001 and Martin Matousek)
I'm not sure, if "last" MCUs from MYS (desoldered from Mikroe) are counterfeit or not.
Works well in 3 cars with 20220422

I have to be blunt and harsh: you have my permission to do anything with the firmware within license.

At the moment I see clear correlation between custom microRusEFI hardware and the firmware issue. At the moment I see very weak evidence that OpenBLT is to blame here.

The issue was reported enough to get noticed. There is no need for additional reports in the next few weeks.

Your next step is to reproduce the problem with any official rusEFI hardware and report what exact version of what exact official board is affected.

Is stm bootloader in source code .. or not ..??
I'm never compiled custom firmware before....

Black MRE are build from official repo. It is not custom PCB ...
Would you can send me your official MRE or STM only.. ??

it has "MYS 99" mcu - the same as my. one dot on left-down corner

"your new official version" has "PHL" mcu - two dots - left-down & right-up corner

Board revision is on the back but at least I see microUSB and that says old board :)

I have already disassembled all microUSB for spare parts. Here is a random 0.5.2 which works fine.

Until https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/4847 I was sure that all chips are the same. Well, https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/issues/4847 tells us that there are minor nasty differences :(

I can put this board on the plane to EU on Dec 23rd.

SAME SAME .... , BUT DIFFERENT ....

I suspect that the problem is in different MCU revisions - country of origin ...

OK, you need my address ..??

BTW:
Original STM32F407-DISC1 with F407VGT6 "MYS" has problem
aprox. 4y old, bought from TME.eu

I have 4 proteus, 3 with F429ZGT6 "KOR" - Korea
and 1with F429ZIT6 "PHL"
I can test it and send results.

@AndreyB

Do you think that is possible to locate users with the MCU revision and board that @JRD McLAREN mention here?

https://rusefi.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=46791#p46791

Do you keep for example an xls-db with MRE versions and STM versions that the users bought?

@stayros32001 I've shipped a custom board to @mck1117 yesterday and that's all I can do here. I am very grateful that you are playing with my hobby project but I have to make calls on priorities. At the moment this strange issue is weirdly isolated and it's just not on top of my priority list considering the weird localization of problem.

Time, price, quality. Pick any two.

Your quickest way forward is getting a unit from Simon@FutureProof https://rusefi.com/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=848

Only 3 boards with "suspected" MCU are out of me... in the world...

stayros32001 and M.Matousek have these boards.

But it looks, that all F407VGT6 MCUs from MYS (Malaysia) have problem with Openblt.

@stayros32001 - would you check mcu on your's boards .??
old - burned one ... and working one ..??

it is very likely, that different series of processors were sold in Europe and America or China.

stayros32001 MRE can be fixed with right MCU - PHL one ... at this moment ...
..but, what we do in the future ... when .. . . ...

@JRD McLAREN made for us an firmware with the "tranditional" bootloader and it works fine.
so, bootloader seams to be the one that we should blame.

@mck1117 did you worked on JRD McLAREN unit that that @AndreyB send you?
