Hi!

Recently I got problem: original GQ-4X can read and verify 28f400 w/o problems, but when I try to erase the flash, it comes to 100% and the software hangs up with programmer's all 3 LEDs ON. Software update to the newest and computer change did not help.

Any ideas?

The chip may be a bad chip.

Try another chip if possible.

My first ideee was also the same. Tried many, result was the same.
Adapter is the same as before. Checked it visually - no damage.

Those chips are locked? In that case the check may not be able to erase.
