Hi! Having recieved my Portapack, I tried writing the custom firmware for it using hackrf_spiflash, but although the command appeared successful, the firmware hasn't stuck in the flash. Also trying to update to a newer normal hackrf firmware fails similarly. ckRF board 0: USB descriptor string: 0000000000000000457863c82536541f Board ID Number: 2 (HackRF One) Firmware Version: 2015.07.2 Part ID Number: 0xa000cb3c 0x005a433c Serial Number: 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x457863c8 0x2536541f
The hackrf itself seems to work fine (smoke test of receiving local broadcast FM works).

Bad flash chip? (Accidentally write protected? Is the write protect feature of it used?) Is is possible to hook up an external SPI programmer to read/write the flash? If so, this is something I could do to check it. /Anders _______________________________________________ HackRF-dev mailing list HackRF-dev@greatscottgadgets.com https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/hackrf-dev
