hi all
trying to flash a 9x, keep getting the print below is the tx bricked?

if not what do I have to do?

That does look like a processor flash memory failure. One bit at location 0x34 is stuck high (0x80 bit). It is an interrupt vector that is not used, so if that is the only error, the radio should still work, but often that sort of error is many locations stuck.
The only solutions if the radio no longer works are either a new main board or a replacement processor.

Ok, installed an old motherboard, had Flysky 9X running, flashed it wit M64, got eprom error message,, reflashed with the new TGY FIRMWARE AND THE EPROM INFO, downloaded from a a new Tgy system, that runs fine, then tried to flash M64 French version, again eprom error, so back to new Tgy pieces.
I would like to flash the French version, any suggestions?
thanks

It's normal to have an eeprom error on the first boot after firmware change, press a key to initialize...

ok, i'll try that tomorrow
thanks

Ok, so that works, must have been a corrupted file I used!
The 9X now works with a now defunct 9x V2 module and RX it will not work with a later module and an IA6 rx even when changing polarity!
I have a 9XR tx which has the original eeprom file and has been flashed with the same French language file, it works with both V2 FM002 modules and the later FM003 modules albeit changing the polarity to enable operation of IAX series receivers(all 2A) should I flash the eeprom from the XR onto the 9x, will it work?
Conversely,any one out there got a V2 module or an FM003 they would be willing to sell me?
