@ andre.m -
yes, I just tried to install the drive manually. but no luck
@ Brett -
thanks. The problem is before I update tinybooter, the initial version is 4.2.0.0. and I could get it worked on my pc. After I update tinybooter to 4.1 or 4.2.9.0, I could not find the USB interface in device manager. that is way I am trying to roll the version back.
Also, I havenāt install SDK (4.2.0.0) before. I installed 4.2.9.0, and the USB drive works fine with the device before.
@ andre.m -
Here is a photo - there are two mainboards, the old one has nothing problem to upgrade to 4.1. The new one doesnāt work in 4.1 and 4.2.9.0.
@ andre.m -
yes. but actually I update the old one to EMX 4.1. The USB name is more strange - Old one is EMX_EMX and new one is Embedded Master_Embedded Master. Because after we get EMX from GHI, we flashed 3.0 to the new devices. Because GHI doesnāt produce old device and not support 3.5, we have to move software to 4.1 (old device doesnāt support 4.2).
Iāve tried with Firmware Updater but still get no luck.
the worse is I could not update tinybooter to 3.0 again :(((

@ Gus -
Very strange. I just test the third new device. In the beginning I could find the device on PC, MFDeploy works fine. But once I connect the device via tera term with baute rate 115200, now PC could not find the USB name any more!!!
Now I donāt dare to try more devices.
Hi Andre,
JKust responding on Phoenix Chenās behalfā¦
This āupgradeā is not done by us, but by the PCB-vendor/factory, so we do have indeed 25 devices that are loaded with 3.0. Is there anything we could do to save theme, or is it a lost causeā¦ I mean is it not fixable ?
Best regards
Dan
@ andre.m -
normally we use USB/network mode to debug. But we use serial port mode to update tinybooter.
Yes, that is right. The factory, has flashed them with wrong firmwareā¦
No, all of them run Embedded Master firmware, but the firsttime they boot up, we are able to āseeā them, next them we do not see/discover the devices at allā¦
@ andre.m -
First time I connected the new device to my PC, I can find the USB name in MFDeploy.exe and I could monitor the log message. Then I use tera term to connect the device, change baud rate to 115200, reconnect the device via serial port on tera term. Then I reboot the device by replug usb cables (one for usb, another one for serial port). However I found I had to tear down the box - because the buttons are inside of the box. Then I found the PC could not found the device any more.
So, actually I just connected the device with tera term on baud rate 115200 and done nothing, the device is gone.
gone mean I could not find usb name or a device in device manager.
@ andre.m -
no output. But now I can press % and reset button to enter bootloader mode to update tinybooter.ghi.
@ andre.m -
the problem is after I upload tinybooter.ghi, I could not find the USB name any more. That is the reason I have no way to update firmware via MFDeploy.exe.
Hidden devices it is only for the device manager. In the boot firmware, dispatcher, not what is seen, and Uploder also not see the device.
So thereās been mention of āEmbedded Masterā modules here. If youāre using EM, not EMX, then you will NOT want to put 4.2 firmware on it. 4.1 is the last EMX firmware that supports the EM hardware. Please clarify what modules youāre talking about here!!!
@ Phoenix Chen - I had a issue like this with G120 (not showing in device manager) :
PCB B
Starts up with version 4.2.4.0 āWaiting for debug commandsā¦ā on the TE35
and shows in device manager as āDebuggable .Net Micro Framework Deviceā (see screenshot)
I run theG120 updater from "C:\Program Files (x86)\GHI Electronics\GHI Premium NETMF v4.2 SDK\Firmware Update"
Connect the G120, pull LDR0 and LDR1 to GND and reset the G120.
G120 reboots and showās TinyBooter v4.2.0.0 āWaitingā on the display.
At this point the āDebuggable .Net Micro Framework Deviceā is removed in the device manager BUT no other device is showing up?
I woul expect the GHI Boot Loader Interface on a COM port but no device showing.
Then i pulled LDR0 and LDR1 to the 3.3V and execute step 5 on the G120 Updater but get the message āCan not connect to the device etc etcā
What looks normal to me because there is no detected device.
Full story in :
http://www.tinyclr.com/forum/topic?id=10823
Bottom line: i was booting in thiny boot ā¦ because I wired 3 G120 boards at pin 2.1 instead of 2.10 ā¦
@ David@ Emrol - Isnāt it the same number?
As in āthe actual numeric valueā yes, maybe thatās why i made the mistakeā¦ the brain is something weird sometimes
