RE: Bricked my WP-34S
Well, it's been 8 months since the last posting on this topic so I figured I owed everyone a denouement (to use the literary term) or conclusion (for the non-literary snobs :-)
Paul Dale kindly offered me to re-flash my WP-34S if I sent it to him. I did, and he promptly returned it with a nice note saying (I'm summarising here) that it didn't seem to work and he suspected it was a hardware problem. I promptly put it back in the too-hard basket. This weekend, finally, I decided to take a new look at it and I discovered that the connection between pin 6 on Harald's board and the top of C21 was a dry joint (in fact, had become loose). I quick resoldered it, and everything worked like a charm. Lessons learned: 1. Proximity in time (problem occurred immediately after an upgrade) doesn't mean anything (in this case, it was a red herring); 2. Paul Dale was right. 3. My soldering is crap. Sigh. Thanks to all. |
