If anyone needs the flash memory dump from a Vizio VF550M with the board number 3655-0062-0150 I am going to attach it to this thread. This TV came with two different board numbers so make sure the numbers match. The un-zipped file size is 4MB.
Back story:
I was given a VF550M that was acting strangely due to an unknown fault on the main board. After troubleshooting this board with the assistance of an esteemed member of this forum we thought it could be a problem with the flash chip. After an unsuccessful attempt of using the dump from the old flash chip on a new replacement flash chip, I figured the only way to make sure the dump file was correct was to get one off another board.
I bought a replacement board from which I dumped the flash memory and again I tried to get the original board working. The problem with my original board was more than a flash chip could fix so the TV is now working with the replacement board I purchased.
I thought it would be good idea to offer the flash dump here so that it may help someone else with this same board. I make no guarantees about this dump other than it was successfully compared to the flash chip and the board it came from works. If you decide to use this, I would advise backing up your fllash chip prior to re-flashing it or just buy a new chip to flash. Good luck with your repairs.
