Write back Eeprom Problem

Post by TheSpirit »

Today i updated my Firmware from 760 to 762 er9x-jeti. Before doing so i saved the Flash and the Eeprom in hex Format to my pc.
After flashing the new Firmware i tried to Write back the Eeprom Data including my Models.
Now i was unable to Start my tx9 anymore.
After reflashing the New Firmware and erasing the Eeprom again i was able to power up my tx again.
I tried to Open the Eeprom hex file but i got an eeror.
So how can i get back my models setup including all settings?
Also companion program wasn't able to Open Eeprom Data. I allways get Bad Data error.
Thanks for help

What did you use to upload and save your EEPROM?

Are you sure you correctly saved the Flash and EEPROM, and didn't instead save the flash twice by mistake?
What are the sizes of the 2 files you saved?

The Flash is about 150k and the Eeprom about 2k

Post your EEPROM file, someone will have a look at it to see what the problem is.

When you say the t9x didn't start, did you get anything, or just a blank screen?

This could maybe happen if you attempted to "flash" the EEPROM file to the program memory as if it were a firmware file, "instead of using "write EEPROM".

I'm afraid that isn't a useable EEPROM file. It actually contains the same 4 lines of data repeated all through the file. The first line starts about correctly, but the rest of the file is wrong.

I don't know how you managed to get that file, it's very odd.
