I´m trying to install a system with a .CWE file in a WP7607 module using “fwupdate download”, apparently is doing the procedure succesfully, but it does nothing at all.

In the meanwhile, I´m doing the exact procedure with a WP8548 module and works perfectly.

The legato.cwe file has been builded for each module with their legato version

WP7607 - Legato 19.11.2  
WP8548 - Legato 18.6.4

There is a chance that the cwe filesize is too big for your module.  
You can capture the debug message in UART2 console port and confirm.

hello @jyijyi, my workmate tells me that he can´t capture debug messages right now.

But we have found out that our legato.cwe file for WP7607 is larger than 8 MB, is about 9MB. legato.cwe for WP85 is about 7MB

We have seen something about the size of legato partition

reduce the size of your image by deleting some application that is not used.

Another way is you use the default legato image, but install your application by .update file instead of building the application to the image

not sure if you can use the AT!PARTITION command, you can give a try:

>
> There is an older forum topic on this. But has anyone found a way to repartition the WP7702 to increase the size of the rootfs as of 2021? The AT!PARTITION is not supposed to work on WP77xx as per the AT command reference r8, but does show the...

BTW, why don’t you use .update file? .update is not using legato partition area.

because if we use updates, it will appear something else after a roll back

</div>

then probably you need to try AT!PARTITION or delete more unused application

OK, we will try AT!PARTITION or we will install a CWE with a simple app that let us recover the device remotely. Thanks!! @jyijyi
