[Diah]

I am not familiar with this method ...
Can you pls explain a bit more?
If you show me how i'll give it a try.

you wrote at first post you disconnected MB from PSU and LED come on... this what he mean..

you need to use this Program SW and choice yours exact 25Q40CL and write it again with lotas file.. no more or less, also don't forget the status to write after you finish

[KYBOSH]

What happens is you force BLon and PSon with the main board attached?

If you had the original dump, then I fixed it for you and it should work, you can also post the t-con dump, it will be 25Q80 and what model do you have, panel number, I’ll check.

Per your request Sir

ShopJimmy sells the EEPROM with the firmware preinstalled ($15US) so I may order it and see if that helps.
If anything then i will have a known good dump for the repository.

It won’t help, since they don’t know what version of the software you currently have on your TV, in this “MU” series there is no difference what model (number) and what the cost of the panel is (diagonal, manufacturer), the main thing here is that If the software version in 25Q40 and eMMC were the same, with each update via network or usb, the data in 25Q40 also changes....

Well, I don't know, if everything was done correctly when recording the dump, then everything should work, unless there are still problems when they dismantled and soldered the chip back, they didn't move or damage the nearby components (resistors)

And yet, before you, no one tried to program this flash drive, I mean, if you have already programmed and downloaded the wrong version of the software, then the TV may behave like that now.

The previous owner likely didnt try anything relating to the mainboard.
When I picked it up he had a spare power supply which he tried to install thinking it was a PSU issue.
Heatsink also looks like it was never removed until i pulled it off so no way to access the IC.
I have checked the chips read/write function with the programmer and nothing seem suspect about it.

Press the down arrow to the right of "Unprotect" and select "SREG Edit", put a check mark on SRP0, BP1, CMP, QE and press "Write" and "Yes"

Not working yet.
Red status light is on.
When i press the power button on back of TV the status light fliashes once and then no response after that. Display never attempts to turn on. Same when I try with the remote. initial flash of red status light then no more response.
i reflashed the chip just to make sure. Status registers confirmed changed.

[KYBOSH]

Done.
Will install shortly and report back.

excellent instructions
oy issue is a few things have changed in the versions you are referencing but i am able to follow along.

Major problem is with the status register part.

Options are totally different from your picture and description.

No, this program will not work, it cannot work with the status register, you need to download and install the program "NeoProgrammer V2.2.0.10". And then I will explain how further..

[KYBOSH]

Well, I don’t know what kind of programmer you have, if ch341a, then what program are you using, so I can explain.

Yes, CH314A with the CH314A Programmer v 1.34 by SkyGZ

[lotas]

please explain or show me how to do this.
this is my first time...

Try it, don’t forget to set and write status register (0x88, 0x42) after writing dump.

[Diah]

yes its damaged need to fix... i just want to know why always the sector 0000h to 1000h fly out... which part caused this ?

[lotas]

Per your request...
Used W25Q40BV as the chip name bcos 40CL was not an option.

Thank you Sir

Remove the radiator and you will see its serial number is IC1604.
