indyucoder commented 7 years ago

Hi, just installed MiniPro 6.60 in wine under lubuntu (16.10)

It request to reflash firmware... maybe hidden check for CS vs A version? Confirmed ... on an upgarded TL866A V3.xx.x Reflashing first time report 'read error' and flashes TL866CS V00.0.00 Reflashing again report 'read error' and flashes TL866CS V03.2.80

This is no hidden check, every new version of the minipro comes with a new firmware, so you must reflash this new firmware to work with this new version.

Ok, I've run self test and tested some 74LSxxx, a PIC and an AVR and my TL866 works good except that it's back to CS version.

Hi, this is because you used the 'simple method' to upgrade from CS to A; no problem, use my firmware updater to upgrade to A again and use (if you want) the 'complicated method' to have permanent A upgrade (this will include reflashing the bootloader). see here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/blog/eevblog-411-minipro-tl866-universal-programmer-review/msg383943/#msg383943
