content: Hello everyone! I have to reprogram a NAND TSOP48 memory using the TL866 eeprom programmer. The files I own are in UPG format. In addition, I saw that in the features of the TL866 that nand are not supported. Can someone help me ??

content: I don't think TL866 supports any NAND FLASH devices, just some parallel FLASH which is very different interface.Maybe you need a NAND FLASH programmer like the GQ-5X.It's quirky but gets the job done. Annoying software registration procedure. No documentation!

content: You did not tell us your part number,this discution is slightly going nowhere, if your part is not lised in the supported device list IT wont do anything for you ?

content: If it is a NAND flash, then it's not supported. Nothing you can do, but to buy a new version of the programmer (TL866II plus).The fact that the file is an UPG file doesn't really tell us anything. It could be a binary file ready to be programmed to the memory, a compressed archive, containing several files, an encrypted file etc.My guess is that you ave a bricked device and you want to directly update the flash with the firmware.Alexander.

content: He will surely report back something ? a part number ?@firewalker said, i never saw an upg file extension for nand devices, it may be an upgrade file for the system using the nand, a firmware file containing others files etc... ??

content: Hello; ok, I checked well; it's a TL866CS, so; I could not reprogram it. I will buy another one. I am thinking of an RT809H; could someone tell me if he corrects the software of the memory of a corrupted tv to reprogram it without having to ask the manufacturer of the brand (very difficult, see impossible!)? Thanks for your help

content: Once again : will you give us the part number of your nand or it an huge secret, you ask help and give nothing ? If not do your own search ?Even badly firmware updated originals tl866a or the tl866cs can be recovered to a certain point on 32 bit pc's. You have in the tl866 forum tools to convert the model, backup the firmware or reprogramm it

content: Hello, model: TL866CS (zip code: 570311); installed nand: NAND512W3A (TSOP48); memory mounted on a TV SONY KDL-32S5600 deprogrammed (led flashes 3 times in red). This programmer should not be able to correct a corrupted software as is the case for the RT809H? I am waiting for confirmation

content: The RT809H will program it with an adapter dil 48 to tsop, you have an rt809h kit with lots of adapters, it can go as high as 390$ start at 120$Official link :https://www.hklrf.comThe TNM 5000 will do tooAn Elnec Beeprog+ Beeprog 2c ... will doBut all programmers will need the tsop adapter, you have the cheap ones and the good one can go up to 150$You just had to read the supported devices listor any programmer supported device list ?Just dont know why people are so stubborn with the tl866, its a cheap programmer who wont read and program everything, peoples ask without checking first ... the MiniProg sorftware run in demo mode.

content: Good evening; big advantage with the RT809H is that it can program and play the contents of a tv without the memory is unsoldered! Another strong point: it can correct the defective sectors of a failed update and then reprogram the memory ?? Which programmer is he as effective and efficient as this one
