Not at all! The need for 3.3v ---> 1.8v adapter - depends not on "Intel vs AMD", but on the model of that SPI flash chip. You see the markings on the back of such a chip, google them, find a correct datasheet, open it and read what's the working voltage for this chip - 3.3v or 1.8v. On Wed, Oct 7,

If this HDD board is too power hungry - the surrounding elements of a BIOS chip are trying to "eat" too much current through a programmer - then a programmer could become unresponsive and even overheat.

are you doing the ISP (in system programming) - using a SOIC8 test clip? if yes, try shortening the cables between a test clip and programmer, and improve your connection in general On Sun, Oct 25, 2020 at 9:21 PM Steffen Müller wrote: > > After successfully reading from W25Q128FV, I wanted to wr

Please note that sometimes a "BIOS update" app installs not just a BIOS update but also an update for EC controller firmware etc (which isn't always possible with flashrom) On Sat, Nov 7, 2020 at 11:05 AM Clay Daniels wrote: > > The success continues: A new bios update became available for my MSI

Please check the possible failure reasons that aren't a fault of flashrom: 1) old flashrom version. Compile the latest version from the source code 2) unreliable connection or too long cables between a flasher and a chip On Fri, Nov 20, 2020 at 3:18 AM Igor Omelchenko wrote: > > Adding logs. > >

what's the length of your cables between a programmer and a flash chip, and the overall connection quality? also I'd suggest a simpler programmer like ch341a (preferably a green PCB version), just make sure its' voltage is 3.3V On Tue, Dec 1, 2020 at 12:29 AM Bálint Boldizsár Varga wrote: > > Dea

Please tell me more about your connection setup. Is it done by ISP (in system programming), i.e. a test clip? If your connection seems to be reliable and the wires are short enough (ideally less than 10cm) : some devices aren't working well with ISP, i.e. if the surrounding circuits are too power h

Looking at https://github.com/flashrom/flashrom/blob/master/flashchips.h file, line ~600, I see there's an ID for PMC_PM25LQ020 but no ID for PMC_PM25LQ010 (which is probably 0x41 but you should check a chip datasheet), you'll need to add this. In addition, there's a flashchips.c file which contain

Perhaps you're having the connection quality problems, make sure that your wires are short enough etc. Also, regarding " when checking to see if the checksum of the reads I do are identical, they always come up as different values.

In any case the internal mode is a bit risky especially on the laptops, and - if you can't use the official update utility - maybe just get a flashrom-supported programmer like CH341A (ideally a green PCB one, and make sure to check its' voltage before using) and a SOIC8 or SOIC16 test clip dependi
