Re: Group Buy: CH341A Programmer
I have always wanted some kind of programmer. What kind of chips would this be good for? Removable BIOS chips on motherboards for sure.. but what else could I un-brick with it? I think I have seen adapters to do other pin formats (like smd) edit: looks like an adapter in the picture. Tell me why I should get this one.Leave a comment:

Group Buy: CH341A Programmer
Is anyone interested in participating in a group buy for this?
https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?&id=39537489315
Sure, there are myriads of CH341A devices on the market, but the software originates from a single seller (though I assume he is using the PonyProg source as his base).
I spoke with the seller, and there are two versions of his software. One version goes up to 1.29, which requires a paid license.
The next iteration of his software (current version 1.32 I think) uses a security dongle (The purple USB device shown in the last picture).
In order to purchase these, we would need to use a TaoBao escrow service because there's no other way to pay the seller.
The group buy is to offset the cost of the escrow.
Please post here if you're interested.Attached Files -

Following this guide (https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/co...g_and_flashing) i re-flashed my t480s BIOS using an external (CH341A) programmer. The flash didnt work, so i reverted back to my BIOS backup successfully. The BIOS in the chip and the BIOS backup file are identical according to windows' file compare. The revert, however, didnt work: the only thing the computer does is flash the power button 3 times when AC power is connected. I've tried unplugging the CMOS battery, holding the reset button and holding down the power button- no signs of life.... -
My pc updated bios through Windows Update and I was greeted with BLACK SCREEN WITH CPU FAN MAX SPEED. I don't think there is even a screen signal, because it triggers my monitor for a couple seconds and then the monitor turns off. I tried the other outputs as well.- I tried clearing bios, resetting bios, removed the CMOS battery, removed m.2 ssd, wifi, and ram. Still black screen with CPU fan blasting.
- I tried using the Lenovo BIOS CD and BIOS USB, but neither worked. At least I couldn't get anything to work.
- I could only locate two chips that look like bios chips. Could someone verify this

I'm able to read and write the chip by selecting a winbond IC of the same size, but when verifying it fails at around 25 percent.
I've modded the ch341a to 3.3v.
Can I update the database to include the XMC 25QH256C? -
Hello everyone, I am looking for help to make sure I am on the right track to remove lost BIOS Admin password on an HP EliteDesk G6 800 SFF. I recently purchased this on ebay and the seller is willing to accept a return but I have already installed my new HDs, NVME, and setup proxmox so I would like to keep it.
Here is the hardware identification specs:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10500 CPU @ 3.10GHZ 16384 MB RAM

BIOS/IC chip seems to be the 4 pin XMC XM25QH128A (3.3v). However most... -
This is a 2012 LG TV so aware full functionality of the smart functions/apps will be limited however currently unable to get the LG Smart Store.
Youtube, Netflix and LG Smart store icons briefly appear in the apps list but then automatically disappear after doing 'Initialisation of Premium' via the standard menu, I'm guessing this is due to the Country/Area group its set to is wrong for the UK.
Unable to change the country group, Area option can be changed which alters the country group but none make any difference. So believe its the country group that needs changing....
