eeprom not modified for Atheros AR9380 card

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Save eeprom dump
2. Modify dump
3. Flash modified dump back to card

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Eeprom content should change. Instelad, nothing happens, also CRC  stays the 
same.
Issue similar to #17, but NVM type is EEPROM.

I am having the same problem using iwleeprom trying to update the regulatory domain of about twenty AR9380 chips. They are all EEPROM, not OTP. I can dump the ROM, change the regdomain and checksum, but when I try to write it, nothing changes. The regdomain and checksum just stay the same.

Every time I attempt to write again, the same regions are claimed to be written, but nothing happens.

Is this tool still under development? Because I would really like to get this to work.
