Maybe this software update updates only a small part of your device memory contents - I don't know. > > In my repair I downloaded the offered file of the homepage > Seems to be a correct approach - maybe someone just made a dump of complete memory contents and shared it.

Make sure to get a "green PCB" version of it and also check that it outputs 3.3V instead of 5V before using it: there was a small number of (mostly black PCB) CH341A which gave 5V instead of 3.3V - although it's possible to fix them.
