  • SAM-ICE version 8.0 JLINK USB Firmware update errored out can it be recovered in any way?

    After downloading the latest J-Link tools I wanted GDB server my SAM-ICE USB J-Link adapter attempted a firmware update which reported errors and now won't even display as a USB device. Is there any way to recover this tool now?

  • Hi,

    We are not aware of any problems with the firmware update.
    Could you please provide some additional information about the version number you used when the problem appeared?


    Best regards
    Alex

  • Same problem here - J-link not working after attempted firmware upgrade

    Sorry to say but the same thing has happened to me here. In this case it was with a j-link EDU 8.0 and the package that I installed was JLInkARM v434d. The first time that I plugged it in after updating the software, it said that a firmware upgrade was recoemmended. Things seemed to be going well but then it used up all 45 seconds and displayed a message about the emulator not re-enumerating. It does not do anything on the USB at all now.

  • Not a brick after all

    An update: it seems that what was broken during the update process was the DLL. I tried an older J-link that had not been subject to the firmware update, and it also was not recognized. I rebooted windows (which hung at the shutdown prompt) and when it came back up everything was OK including the firmware update on the newer unit.
