Using pre-programmed bootloader on STM32G0B0RE

hello

I am developping on a STM32G0B0RE, I've learned after finishing my board and everything that boot pin can be used by default.

It is not a problem since I have ST-Link for production but I would like to be able to do firmware update through bootloader.

 

The issue is, since nBOOT_SEL is set to '1' by default I need to change it to 0 so I go in bootloader if my pin PA14-BOOT0 is tied up at startup. I find how to change it in STM32CubeProgrammer but I would like to do it in my firmware so the flashing process is not too complicated in factory.

 

I've tried this but it does not have any effect :

    Hello

    I know this table, as I said I've been able de modify "nBOOT_SEL" bit in the STM32CubeProgrammer but I would like to implement it in my firmware. So they only need to flash a firmware in factory. 

    I am developping on STM32CubeIDE v1.16.0, I tried to use the function "HAL_FLASHEx_OBGetConfig". Can you tell me if I am using this function wrong or I have to do an other way ? 

    Best Regards

    D you mean you cannot change your "nBOOT_SEL" bit from 1 to 0 by the function HAL_FLASHEx_OBProgram?

    please note:

    New option bytes configuration will be taken into account in two cases:
    * - after an option bytes launch through the call of @ref HAL_FLASH_OB_Launch()
    * - after a power reset (BOR reset or exit from Standby/Shutdown modes)

    Hello

    I've tried to add HAL_FLASH_OB_Launch() :

    I didi'nt tried power reset because when I do programm then get it seems like the modification didn't do anything in the register and it changed only my local structure.
