Flashing firmware to my SPARKFUN THING PLUS MATTER - MGM240P BOARD fails

Hello,

I can no longer write firmware to my SparkFun Thing Plus Matter - MGM240P board with SimplicityStudio v5.

It worked fine before.

Could you please help me troubleshoot?

Does it still show up as a COM port when plugged in? Try swapping cables/usb ports and verify that 5v is being delivered @ the usb cable end

Yes the board is detected by the host as you can see:

But I can’t flash to that board:

What can I do to fix that?

I bought this board to develop Matter protocol connected devices and it doesn’t work :? .

What was previously flashed onto it? It sounds like it worked before, what changed? Also ensure the EFR32xxxxxxxx file is the correct one for your board

This boad is not working since SimplicityStudio v5 update it at the end of 2023.

I had flashed an example of a Matter lightbulb in SimplicityStudio and it was working fine before that.

Is it a hardware or software problem with this board?

Might try going back to the previous, working version of

SimplicityStudio?

This is impossible because the programming fails. Hence the opening of this discussion topic.

I still haven’t found a solution.

One thing to try: use Commander app to completely. erase the board.
