They may use different pins, you'll have to verify they're mapped correctly before installing rehius fw on it.
thanks,the problems is right now i have a brand new oled console for this chip,so i dont want to take more risks,some forums say this chip update via toolbox like the hwfly BUT for do that we need install the chip in the switch with old firmware and thats is i dont to do!,so i really need to know if this chip can update via usb,i press the boot buton but dont work
Are you receiving any indication at all that you're plugging the ribbon cable in for the USB connector the right side up? Does the chip light up at all when plugged in? (as a flashed board should when it receives power)
nop nothing at all,no sound in pc,no led lights ,the cable is in the right position,even test another mini usb ports and nothing happen,even i test another chips,same problem,but if i conect my old hwfly,pc see it without problem,i really need update with the latest firmare,some forums say only update via tolbox,the chips only light up when conect to the switch,BUT i dont want to install another chip without update first
Check for continuity between the traces on the board and the micro usb connector. Those usb traces should be going basically straight to the RP2040, because from what I understand, the SoC handles the USB directly.
i test like 5 mini usb ports and 3 types of chip,and pc simple dont see them,even i try flip the conector,for example,in hwfly if you conect the mini usb in the wrong way,the led dont turn on,so only need conect the another way and thats it,pc see then,but in this weird new chip no matter how you conect then,dont work! also i dont see any installation guide for this exact chip
If you are unwilling to use a multimeter to determine if there is a fault in the traces (I.E. a fault in the /YET UNSUPPORTED HERE/ board) then this is the farthest I will be able to help you.
ok i will test the traces you say,now what for are the 2 butons in this chip?? i mean in another chips is you press boot the pc must see then,but is not this case,i will test the lines you say,BUT remember,i test 5 mini usb ports,and 3 types of chips,oled,core,lite,same results
If the traces from the flex connector to the RP2040 (Completely disregarding the Micro usb daughter-board) on the main board are incorrect (wired incorrectly, traces go to the wrong pins, soldered bad from the factory in a large batch due to misplaced pin traces, any number of things can go wrong with rushed PCB's) then no matter which board you try, the only way to communicate with the RP2040 will be to find the traces that connect to the USB pins of the SoC, wire to them temporarily with a USB connector, and flash the chip directly while holding the boot button before plugging it in.
Be sure to use the correct 2.72 firmware from Rehius' post here
i test 3 types of chips,l,so they works and leds turn on only if you conect to the switch consoles,so the chips are working,the problem is something with the conection to the pc
yes i see the update the firmware some hours ago,BUT the diagram you send me here,my chips are totally difrents,they looks like a hwfly,so how this diagram works then?Be sure to use the correct 2.72 firmware from Rehius' post here

Here's a Pinout of the RP2040 to get you started, looks like the USB data pins are at the top towards the right "USB_DP" and "USB_DM"
Maybe voltage regulator is fried? try checking the voltages, one pin should have 3.3v, other one 5v from PC
sure i check i will check BUT remember i test 3 types of chips with the same result
well i will test then BUT rememeber i test 3 types of chips with same results,so right now the big problem is i need install another oled,but i need update the chip first but dont want to use the toolboxMaybe voltage regulator is fried? try checking the voltages, one pin should have 3.3v, other one 5v from PC
st
Why dont you do the multimeter test as suggested the the members first instead of you keep pointing out that you've tested 3 chips with same result
I don't think I seen anyone try installing rehius fw on Chinese hwfly rp2040 boards. As far as I understand, these models are using completely different closed-off firmware than the one posted in this thread. We do have guides for the other readily available boards, which what the rehius firmware in this thread is specifically written for, not hwfly rp2040 boards.
See that square black chip in the middle of the board? It's an RP2040 System On a Chip. The diagram I sent you is a pinout of the pins coming off that chip.
