firmware update error 3221225781
kragon asked 1 year ago
Hello,
I’m trying to setup a pair of simpleRTK2B’s as a base and a rover, and I’m trying to update the firmware as recommended. (currently on HPG 1.13)
I’m getting to step 9 on the update guide (https://www.ardusimple.com/zed-f9p-firmware-update-with-simplertk2b/) but I’m getting the following error within a few seconds of hitting go.
Firmware update utility has unexpectedly terminated
exit code (3221225781)
Ive tried the basics, restarting the computer/GPS, redoing instructions, new software install, different baud rates ect, i always get the same error. Not sure how to proceed and I cant find any information on the error online.
Anyone encountered this error before or have any suggestions? Or am I ok to proceed on this older firmware?

Can you confirm you are unselecting the checkbox “enter safeboot before update” ?
kragoni can. turns out the ‘FTD2XX.dll was not found’ i copied it in with u-center and it can update now. thanks for the suggestion.

Not seen such an error either.
You can run the uBlox update tool from the command line also

Is the older firmware working? I yes the leave it along.
Make sure to remove radios or other sources of UART traffic whilst doing the update

tried running it from the command line and got a more useable error message from that. ‘FTD2XX.dll was not found’
the .dll was intact so copied it into the same folder as u-center and it works now.
not sure if it was meant to be included with u-center?
thankyou for the help 🙂

Converted to hex, this is a Microsoft/Windows error code fed through.
