FIXED Non matching nands

[Shuttleu]

Hi, just got my DemoN today and done as was suggested.

I took a backup of a nand and wrote it to the DemoN, then read it back and compared them, however everytime the nands do not match

I have tried 4 different nands and all of them never match upon comparing

It is always at block 0x03D3 where the mismatch is at.

When programming the DemoN it says

Number of Invalid Blocks: 1
Addresses of Invalid Blocks: 979

When I leave it as the default settings

But if I tick "Ignore Invalid Blocks" I get

Number of Invalid Blocks: 0

Whichever option I choose I always get comparison errors

Erase the DemoN and try again.

From what it looks like, there's a bad block on the DemoN NAND. This is nothing to worry about. Just use the Advanced/"Write Demon/Fuson (handles bad blocks)" to write to the DemoN to test it.

 

[Shuttleu]

OK, that's fine

When I click on "Demon/Fusion (handles bad blocks)" is something supposed to pop up? Or is something supposed to be written in the log?

Whatever firmware you have in the source box should be written to the destination device.

 

[Shuttleu]

Hmmm... I click on it with a nand in the source box and nothing happens

 

[Martin C]

Do you have your DemoN connected when you do this?

 

[Shuttleu]

Just restarted JRunner and it seems to be working now

They were also the same upon comparison

Thank you so much for the support

One last question, should I use the "Demon/Fusion (handles bad blocks)" option whenever writing to the DemoN in future?

 

[Martin C]

Yes, definitely. What I would do though is use the custom NAND/CR function and erase the DemoN prior to writing to it with the Fusion / Demon option.
