Ok
Looks like u are running PortIO so no need to do that
Try sending Intro/device id until u get the good flash chip properties come up in that box on the right
If not try the lite on erase button again.
It will eventually work And you will get the correct flash chip properties

Id also suggest trying iprep
Its much better in my opinion

Hi guys,

thank you for your previous advice as now I can erase and write succesfully however there is a problem with the files that I'm loading to get the key. I think I have the the right files loaded from the right directory (the first time I dumped the keys)

When I repaired the serial jungleflasher doesn't show if the key is good or not. You'll see it in a few screenshots down here,
