nandpro3 write errors?

I updated my nandx to v3 today, got nandpro 3 and started working on flashing nands and coolrunners. Well, when I tried to write Xell to a 256MB Jasper(6750CB) I got a lot of "usb_bulk_write failed -116" errors. When booting it just flashes the green light on the front and the green light on coolrunner flashes once every few seconds and never boots.

I tried to write the original nand, but it has the write error on every single block. What am I missing here? I have 3 matching nand copies. I didn't move the xbox after reading, the solder joints shouldn't have changed?

i was getting the same errors before, was a bit strange considering it was brand new and it worked perfectly yesterday.

I pressed the restart button and switched usb ports and its now working :D

yes, it's detected by jtagtool and every other program I use. I can read the nand all day long and not a single error, but writing is fail after fail. Every single block makes a fail message in nandpro.

I took it out checked all my solder points. Now, nandpro says incompatible arm version, but I can still flash the coolrunner?

*ADDED*
Can someone rip the firmware and upload it. I think I want to try reflashing my nandx with clean known working firmware.

This is retarded. All the solder points looked great I read and have multiple copies of the nand. For no reason it just stopped working now I can't read the nand I can't write to the nand. I took all the quick solder boards off and did a pin header install and still the same result.

I am pretty sure my nandx is screwed over for whatever reason. I worked for hours getting it to update to v3 and read my nand with it and it worked great and now nandpro3 says the arm firmware is not supported yet I can still use it to write to any of these coolrunners.

I am just throwing all this sh*t in the f**king garbage. I really just want to punch a baby in the face right now.

ANNNND after calming down. I decided to try with a slim. The nand read fine 4 times, all match. Make the ECC, tell it to write the ECC. Nandpro3 says incompatible arm firmware(didn't say when reading) and now i am stuck in the same boat with both xboxes.

update, if I unplug the nandx from usb and plug it back in then immediately start write, it doesn't show the arm firmware error and gets to about 0017-0025 before failing, normally it fails at block 0.

Yes, actually I did. After countless driver installs and cleanups etc I finally flashed the 2.0 firmware and erased all blocks on the nandx, then updated to armV3 again and it started working. The original Jasper says can't find usb device now, going to just trash it probably. The slim is flashing and reading flawlessly now though.
