  • I have updated Linux Mint 22 and I tried different USB ports.
    Tomorrow I will try a completely different PC.
    The log shows that the programmer identified the chip, but could not read the data.​

  • I am using linux flashrom and I have this problem.

  • Asus E406MA unresponsive

    NTB Asus [URL="https://www.asus.com/laptops/for-students/everyday-use/asus-e406/techspec/"]E406MA[/URL]. NTB worked great, but one day it wouldn't turn on. After pressing the button on the keyboard, nothing happened (just darkness). Since the NTB does not have a CMOS battery, disk (eMMC) and RAM integrated on the motherboard, I disconnected the large battery and connected the NTB to a 19V adapter. After pressing the button on the keyboard, nothing happened (just darkness).
    I measured the voltage on the MB and found that it was fine, 19V (see picture).
    I would also like to...

  • I didn't say you were wrong.
    I can't tell if it would work with

    but with
    [CODE]FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF[/CODE]
    it definitely works​

    Sorry, I'm not an expert, that's why I'm asking.

  • After some time I came back to it. I did
    1. cut the beginning of the file from 0 to 0000317 (792 bytes) [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3496637"]see[/URL]
    2. cut the end of the file, everything from offset 0080000 to the end 008881D0 (557528 bytes) [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3496636"]see[/URL]
    3. I replaced DMI offset 001EE000 - 001EE220 (560 bytes) [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/filedata/fetch?id=3496635"]see[/URL]
    Now the file has the correct size 8388608 bytes, but the md5sum does not match your [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubleshooting-hardware-devices-and-electronics-theory/troubleshooting-laptops-tablets-and-mobile-devices/bios-requests-only/70737-lenovo-ideapad-330s-15arr-330s_arr_v06?p=3494802#post3494802"]file[/URL]...

  • Thank you very much for the information. However, during the measurement, some parts jumped off and I didn't fit them anymore. I have to order new ones. I'll get back to you later.

  • I return to the problem again

    Here are the pieces that were swept away by the hot air.
    I can't find out which output is number 1 on the stepdown converter, etc.
    I want to solder the parts to their places...

  • Thanks, now I understand what you meant.
    I desoldered the chip, but many things went wrong. Some copper roads are destroyed. I managed to partially fix it, but it wasn't perfect. I soldered a new chip today, but it turned out even worse.
    I don't want to comment on that. I want to forget about it.​

  • I don't like it at all

    I heat the chip with hot air and nothing happens. I set the temperature to 380°C and heated for 10 minutes. Then I increased the temperature to 400°C and heated for another 10 minutes. I don't see any solder melting. I increased the temperature to 420°C and nothing even after 10 minutes.

    After 30 minutes I resigned.
    Am I making a mistake somewhere?

    I was already warned that the metal surface can be soldered to the board from below. However, I have bought new chips and there is no metal surface on the chip.

    Specifically,...

  • Try to insert the clip several times and read again. As I already wrote, I managed to make a clip after 5-6 attempts. If you don't succeed, de-solder the chip with hot air and use an adapter.
    I ordered [URL="https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubleshooting-hardware-devices-and-electronics-theory/troubleshooting-laptops-tablets-and-mobile-devices/bios-requests-only/70737-lenovo-ideapad-330s-15arr-330s_arr_v06?p=3480995#post3480995"]this[/URL] and there are more options than flashing the bios

  • Did you use a clip or another method for writing and reading?

  • I followed post number 29. I found the region 1EE000 - 1EE22F and replaced it.
    However, I do not know if it is enough to replace only this region 1EE000 - 1EE22F (I did not replace the Win key)
    The BIOS you sent me starts in the hex editor like this

    Using innoextract in Linux, I extracted this from the exe file

  • I used innoextractor and extracted bios.cap, but there was no match out of 8,388,608 bytes.
    So I uploaded the one you gave me to the bios. I started NTB and it works great.​

  • Thank you. I followed your instructions in post #29.
    First, I downloaded the[URL="https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/sk/sk/products/laptops-and-netbooks/300-series/330s-15arr/81fb/81fb001hck/yd04lkxg/downloads/ds503432-bios-update-for-windows-10-64-bit-330s-15arr?Products=LAPTOPS-AND-NETBOOKS%2F300-SERIES%2F330S-15ARR%2F81FB%2F81FB001HCK%2FYD04LKXG"] official bios[/URL] for my NTB from lenovo's website.
    I'm not sure if I extracted the bios bin correctly from the exe file.
    I used the 7zip program to extract. From the extracted files, it seems that bin will be this file [0]...

  • I used flashrom in Linux for the dump. I read the bios 3 times and got the same dump files (verified via md5sum). I read the whole forum, but I'm afraid to edit the file in the hex editor so I don't mess something up.
    My NTB is a Lenovo IdeaPad 330S-15ARR - 330S_ARR_V06. Winbound 25q64fws10 is written on the bios.
    Could someone help me with bios editing?​...
