How to activate DFU Mode on Cube Orange+

Hi, I’m working on flashing a custom bootloader and firmware onto a CubeOrange+, but I’m a bit confused about the correct process.

With boards like the Kakute H7 Mini, the boot button makes things straightforward. However, since the CubeOrange+ doesn’t have one, I’m unsure how to properly enter DFU mode and proceed.

I already have my bootloader ready, but I’m not clear whether flashing a .apj file includes the bootloader, or if it needs to be flashed separately (e.g., using an ST-Link).

Could someone clarify how they handled this? Did you flash the bootloader separately, and what method worked for you?

Hi @Bylla,

In general when the .apj file is built it will include the bootloader. Then it can be flashed using a GCS as described here.
