connected to flash(RDID:0x01FFF REMS:0XFFFF
flashcatusb detected spi device but its not currently supported...
any help?
thanks
 
That chip is supported recheck your connections ,remember in fcusb your SI goes to SO and SO connects to SI
 
am new in this,can you explain please how to exactly connect to it in details? am pretty sure i doing it wrong way... have movimento adapter,which get corupted memory couse of bad update, i open itthere was a place for 10 pin connector i solder it and now am here... do i need get straight to chip or it can be done tghru 10 pin?IMG_20150501_142415.jpg IMG_20150501_142437.jpg
 
It all depends if the 10 pin is connected to the pin , only way to know that is to find data related to this device , or to buzz out the pins with a multimeter.
If you can connect directly to the chip then it would be better , you can follow this diagram

Another noob question.. how trace atmel pins??? i tryed with multimeter but pins si,so,sck,cs they interfere on same lines,what i need to measure? to trace which is where exactly, or can somone point me to resources where i can learn that?
thanks
 
Your best bet is to connect directly to the SPI chip itself.
 
ok not many hair left on my head :), I trace the pins solder wires,double checked them,and still getting spi flash detected,but not supported... every time I press detect device I getting device detection at different addres?!?
someone know what manual settings must be for atmel at45db161b chip? I want to try read it manually.
thank you

ahh and am sure it is not right but I tried connect usb cable to device with flashcat on and device shows in device manager recognized"movimento adapter" device working properly... admin020(program specifically to flash fw to device reads configuration,but if I trying to flash it getting error again... :confused:
 
Can you upload a photo of your connection from FCUSB to the device please
 
what that going change? I trace pins gnd,so,si,vcc,sck,cs to place where I can solder without damaging chip this chip very small so I cant go directly to it... but I trace pins double-triple checked that... possibility something else interfering in system??? that why I want to try manual settings.i have good memory dump so I can compare readings,btw what is cpu on reset??? read in other post guy mentioned that?
 
is there wires length and gouge difference matter in this case? now I have about 20 inches different gouge connected...
 
done,thread closed,i fix the unit without properly identifying the chip,am not good in electronics but I think my problem was another memory unit interfering. even without properly identifying flash I was able to fix unit.
p.s flashcat did big part in this fix.
thanks to D3m0n for help.
 
Glad you got it working but for future reference trying to input manual settings will not work unless fcusb detects a Jedec ID , the manual setting's was implemented for chips that were not in the supported list so that people could manually add them instead of waiting for a new fix in the software.
 
I dont know why i cant detect chip,but flashcat opened access to chip so i was able to reprogram unit over its own usb.
