what tsop type samsung chip

[sal]

can anyone tell me what type of adaptor is required to read the chip that is desoldered off the samsung board please?

i already got a weller programmer as i know how to do the tsop out of 360 hitachi drives but,i am only familiar with the tsop32.

so what type adaptor is required so i can rewrite them instead of having to buy blank ones.

or if someone can tell me what tsop this chip is i would be gratefull.

i think this programmer will do the trick for rewriting the chip from the samsung.

USB 24xxx I2C E-Eprom programmer - Microchip, ATMEL on eBay, also Assemblies EM Devices, Components Supplies, Electrical Test Equipment, Business, Office Industrial (end time 13-Apr-08 01:41:24 BST)

an amtel 24c512 should go in the samsung box and this programmer will read and write them chips so i think its safe to assume that this will read/write the samsung chip that has to be rewritten.

will save me having to spend a few quid every time i need to put a blank chip back in,instead i will rewrite the original one.over time it will pay for itsself.

why are you removing chips in the sammy is it fir net id and pin if so reset the stb and use fun files, they work a treat

great stuff.

now i see when i read up more.

because the samsung and some pace box's are davic.makes me wander why they ever put the chip way in some of the tutorials.

oh well,i am sure i can put that programmer to some use.

thanks.

Its only v+ box that you may have to remove chip.

I know this thread is a bit old but came across it doing a search, I am in process of modding a sammy 2110 I acquired (I am new to modding boxes but not to Starview's etc...) and in a tut I downloaded it says about removing the chip and replacing or flash it with ffff etc... I cannot re-write it or find which one it is at maplins but now I read on here I do not need to do this? I have cut the talkback by removing the 4 caps needed to do this and that is as far as I have got. It does come with a paired card but I do have funcards and a CAS 3 so I can program cards. What is my best option and how please. Appreciate any advice.

if u have a paired card and if the card is not unlooped then u will need an unlooper something like a t911 unlooper (there are other unloopers aswell) u will need unloop the card to get the bk & ird of that box as 2110 cant be jtagged or led simm.

[dennyjames]

Oh, I'm not keen on buying one of those just for doing this box, any other way of doing it?

[ouzi1212]

if the box was suscripbed and u cancelled the suscription then vm may send a fake bk & ird to the card so there no worth get an unlooper it would be useless and waste of money, if u want to modify then u will need to get a different box then can be jtag or led simm but it depends on ur area some boxes dont work in certain areas.

Box was given to me, I assume it's an ex sub one, When connected up get FTA channels and a pop up saying card is invalid. Only want to have a go at it as nothing to lose. Got my Itgate and Starview's here so this is just a "see if I can do it" project. In the tut I got it says about changing the chip to a blank one, would maybe do that but cannot see what it is or if maplins have it. Is it worth trying to read the card using the CAS 3 I have or won't that help at all? Doing this never really interested me before but I'm starting to get a bit enthusiastic now.
