ADATA USB Flash Drive Constantly Requires Formatting: Regain Control, ChipGenius_v4_00 Results

ADATA USB Flash Drive, all the time after connecting to the USB port, requires formatting. Windows can see it, and so do other programs, but you can hardly do anything because a window pops up every half second:



And I can not stop it in a way that the pendrive remains under Windows control.

And because of these pop-ups that keep flooding your desktop, you can hardly "run" any program. And after program "ejection", no program finds it. The only thing I was able to do was check with ChipGenius_v4_00 and this is the result



Whether there is a chance to "regain" control over it does not depend on the data contained on it.

Download software for SM3267AE.

Well, I found something like "SM3267AE_Q0207B2" (with this number "), but I do not know if it was exactly what it was about. After starting this program and clicking the" Start "button after the test, because he sees the device and does something, it comes out like this:



And they keep popping up these formatting windows until it locks up, freezes the computer.
In fact, I don't know if I am doing well or using this program well and if that was it.

A w Dyna TOOL?

Dyna TOOL, a bit "mixed up" and now there is "something":



The formatting windows do not "pop up", the computer "sees" it, but after clicking there is a message:



ChipGenius "sees" him this way

Download sm32Xtest Repack P0414v1 .zip and use it to upload the "new" firmware.

Yes, but after the last "action", after unplugging from the USB socket and reconnecting, he tried to find drivers, with no success, and the computer stopped seeing it completely, you can only see it in the device manager and in Devices and Printers as:



Now I don't know how to get to it, because only ChipGenius "sees" it from the programs with the following effect:

You have to think when working with this soft and you are clearly one of those who click "NEXT".
You got a link to the tool and you have everything in your hand (description of the procedure).

At the beginning, thanks for your help (willingness to help), but in fact I'm not one of those who "click NEXT". I just used these programs by clicking "start" and nothing else, no setting changes or other "combinations", the flash drive remained in the USB port all the time. There were no desired effects, so I unplugged the socket using the safe removal option, when I saw that there was an answer in the topic, I wanted to try to do according to the instructions, but after plugging it into the socket, he started looking for drivers, he found nothing (I do not know what is the reason for this search and these "effects") and the effects are what they are, I don't know where the cause is, maybe it's really my fault that I did something wrong. A small loss, but a pity because there is no satisfaction with "successful resuscitation". Thanks for your willingness to help.

"With good intentions, this hell is paved" , You got ( I'm sure about this ) proper advice from specialists.

Finally, give (for posterity) the exact model of this 16-gig ADATA flash drive.

I received help, I do not deny that, maybe (probably for sure) I made a mistake somewhere, I do not know when and where.
As for the model, it's probably about:

ADATA(R) UV128 USB FLASH DRIVE

There is also such a description next to the bar code "

AUV128-16G-RBY
MADE IN TAIWAN

I can't see anything else on it.
In fact, a few months ago it was used only once and now, after a few months of "aging" after plugging it into the socket, it no longer "contacted" having problems with the first post.
Thanks for your help, best regards.

The one in the picture or the "yellow" one, you'll be able to undress it

pidar wrote:

Yellow, i.e. where blue in the picture, it is yellow for me.
Will I be able to undress? I don't know yet, haven't tried yet.
This is how it was possible to "unbutton" it without any damage:

Despite blocking the controller, these programs check that earlier sm32Xtest_V2.5.48_v9_P0331 on foreign hardware, computer.

And it was worth inserting a photo with the number on the connector
http://www.adata.com/en/ss/usbdiy/

I downloaded and attached -> SM3259_67 High Level Recover tool Q0509_ADATA .
Start by trying out the manufacturer's tool ( do this on a different computer ).

Thanks, but with this "(do it on another computer)" this is gonna be a big problem. So far, no access to another "machine".
Will try to start his old "tin". If there is a single-core processor and a 32-bit system, Windows 7, will this tool start, there will be no obstacles? Perhaps I will be able to start this computer because it is unused for a long time, I will try.

Yes.

Apply on this current machine DriveCleanup and after restarting the system use the soft from the attachment ( connect the USB flash drive immediately after starting the ADATA tool ).

I tried as per your recommendations on both computers. Zero response, the "factory" program is not complete. The only reaction of this program is the following window:



So "Cannot find smi disk please insert smi udf !!"
And this regardless of the moment of plugging the pen into the socket, or directly after clicking the "run as administrator" program, or after plugging in when the window pops up and click "OK", after clicking OK the program turns off.
I think he "died" definitely.

Is it currently detected in this software ( Scan USB ) -> https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/topic3384736.html#16745991
:?:

Rate the quality of this soldering:


If there are no signs of "life", it remains to be finally checked. " testmod "-> leg 10 of 11 shorted on this SM3267 controller for approx. 5s (you plug this pendrive into the USB port with the legs on the controller shorted and after approx. 5s you pull back the shorting element).

No, sm32Xtest Repack P0414v1 doesn't see it.

pidar wrote:

it remains Testmod -> leg 10 from 11 shorted on this SM3267 controller for about 5s

I am asking theoretically which is exactly the 10-11 leg, from which side to look and count. I just have this drawing:



I just haven't checked if it "agrees with reality", because the number seems to be the same, but the "letters" are different. Is it as I indicated? With the USB port and other things, nothing will happen when I shorten these feet?
When, after these 5 seconds, I remove this jumper from these legs, the pen must still remain connected to the USB socket? What should I do next?



I marked in the photo, will they be these feet?

Wrong , you count your legs from the dot on the controller housing (one).

You make 10-11 or 11-12, photo below (see from left 10.11 and last 12):


If you follow the recommendations, nothing will happen and when you open these legs on the controller, you will hear the sound of the hardware being detected by the system.

I marked the above with yellow arrows, you can recognize a little more clearly in relation to the inscriptions on the layout than in your picture. I looked according to this drawing from the datashet and according to the numbers in this drawing. Marked well? Are these the feet?

Added after 15 [hours] 27 [minutes]:

pidar , thanks for the tips, the pen "came to life" at the moment, after "defibrillator therapy" (pins short-circuited), "My computer" sees it normally:



In "Devices and Printers, you can see it like this:



The only thing is that he "fell" into "amnesia" (he must be in a coma! ), in properties 0 (zero) capacity, 0 (zero) space, (lost his memory?). Which software should I use now to regain memory? This "factory" - SM3259_67 High Level Recover tool Q0509_ADATA or this sm32Xtest Repack P0414v1 ?

For now, I am not unplugging it so that it does not "go away" again.
If in fact the solder is not like that, I have no possibility of improving it and checking "if it connects well", not the skills and dimensions of the elements and the lack of equipment for it, and there is no friend who could do it.
ChipGenius sees it this way:

And which pins were shorted :?:

I wonder who is right here, "Chinese" or me :?:

Colleague tagievara could he get these pictures from them?

I found something like this:

And if this "dot" is actually added to this drawing, I doubt it. :|

Do you see (is) a "cut" corner on your controller (mark it in the photo) :?:

EDIT:

So run it now.

pidar wrote:

I don't really see the cut corner here (don't pay attention to the arrows). The photo is "real", taken in person a few days ago. Maybe a bit out of focus, because it's an enlarged fragment, but you can't see the "cut corner" there.



Well, unless here, after enlarging and looking closely, you can see a slightly cut corner (red circle):



Added after 4 [hours] 39 [minutes]:

I used this "factory" - SM3259_67 High Level Recover tool Q0509_ADATA , "skipped" a few seconds and threw a message about some memory error, of all that I even forgot to write down what the error was. To be sure, I also scanned this: sm32Xtest Repack P0414v1 , worked a little longer, but the end result was also red FAIL. The computer sees it, reacts normally, but the capacity is 0 (zero).

You had to write down this "FAIL". :|

Test this version from the picture:

pidar , Thank you very much for your help (especially with regard to these pins), but before I read your post just like that, "for a trial" (because I already put a cross on it) I treated it with this: sm32Xtest_V51-5 .
And to my surprise, the result was like this :



Saves, opens normally, in properties it shows like this:



ChipGenius sees it this way:



In disk management you can see it like this (red arrow):



I am satisfied, although it is not known how long it will "keep the shape", but there is satisfaction with "mixing".
Thanks a lot for all the help, because I wouldn't have been able to do it myself.

I repeat the question:

pidar wrote:

Write specifically (for those seeking help in such cases from SM3267 ) what was shorted and whether the flash drive was "reanimated" at the first attempt :?:


Currently => Previously =>
{Confirmation of uploading the new firmware}
Finally add (save) info from Flash Drive Information Extractor and close the topic.

I do not know if this information is enough, these two pins are shorted (red arrows in the photo):

pidar wrote:

what was short-circuited and whether the flash drive was "reanimated" at the first attempt

As for this "resuscitation" by shorting the pins - this YES , excitation and start of the pendrive took place after the first short-circuit of the pins with a thicker pin that did not fit into the gap between them and short-circuited them, the short circuit may not even last 5 seconds, immediately after releasing the pin there was the sound of connecting the pen to the socket and the window that looks for drivers. It found the drivers in seconds and showed up in the system but as I wrote "out of memory". The "factory" program used SM3259_67 High Level Recover tool Q0509_ADATA it returned a memory error (I didn't note what it was), then the program sm32Xtest Repack P0414v1 also in red FAIL (even a few tries), I accidentally got downloaded sm32Xtest_V51-5 and after a few moments the effect is:

Thanks again for your help.

Yes.

I do not know if "300 mA" should not be displayed
At the earliest opportunity, check it after connecting to the port USB3.0 .

I will check it when I have the opportunity. I think you can close the topic.
