However, we will add the new names to the in-program (and hence
wiki) database so that this new information becomes public. Thanks for
the heads up, Victor.

Hi,
Flashrom can't read my bios. So, I transmit the log file.
Nota :
I build myself flashrom and its dependencies from git repositories.
I hope this log file can help you.
Sincerely yours
Philippe
Hey, found your site while researching programming EC chips. Brief background: I have an old 2013 Alienware m17xr4 laptop. Was upgrading RAM/GPU/Display/SSDs mostly just for fun. In the process of adjusting bios, the computer failed to post. Attempted a blind flash which failed and left he laptop totally unresponsive.
Using a CH341A Hardware programmer with cable clip, I have been able to repair the BIOS. But the computer remains unresponsive leading me to believe the EC chip is also corrupted. I have a viable .bin to use with the EC chip, but I cannot seem to make the upload stick. I can clip and detect the EC chip (which appears wiped). I can program with my .bin. But then verification fails and it still looks like the chip is wiped.
Appreciate any advice. I don’t have the expertise to solder/desolder the chip, and I know a new motherboard may be in my future. But is there any other last ditch effort I should try with the programmer?
Thanks,
Zac

Hi all,
I'm trying to dump a chip using the following command:
sudo flashrom -p ft2232_spi:type=232H,port=A,divisor=16 -r dump.rom -V
For some reason I'm getting an error. Can anybody help me?
"Initializing ft2232_spi programmer
Error: Invalid device type specified.
Unhandled programmer parameters: port=A,divisor=16
Error: Programmer initialization failed."
I also tried: sudo flashrom -p ft2232_spi:type=232H -r dump.rom -V
got the same error.
help :)
Thanks!
Dan
Hello Dominique,
you should always keep the mailing list in the loop. This way you
wouldn't rely on a single person giving the answers :)

Possible, but not necessarily. Flashrom is a simple tool to write
data to a flash chip. It doesn't care about the contents, just that
they are written correctly.
Updating the firmware of a modern mainboard, however, is a complex
process that may involve more than just writing data to the flash.
There are roughly three ways how the update process of that DOS tool
might look like:
a) The tool "asks" the firmware to allow write access to the
flash chip (then does what flashrom would do).
- This is rather old school, but who knows? *shrug*
b) The tool hands the data over to a program running in the firmware
(usually involves SMM; that's also where the write protection is
implemented).
c) The tool writes the data to a specific memory location, and the
update is done during the next reboot/resume (when the firmware
is the only process running on the computer).
( d) A combination of b) and c) )
Only for case a), flashrom would be the correct program to use. But
that would still need a piece of code to talk to the running firmware
(what we call a board-enable).
I guess the best option would be to talk to the manufacturer of your
devices. And there is also LVFS [1]. The people there might even know
already how it works for your device.
