what about using a high voltage programmer to enable and acess code

What is problem in my Atmega328P-U microcontroller. I am using external 16mhz crystal . I am using this setting 0xFF, 0xDE, 0xFD, 0xC0 and write by avrdude. my project stuck or hang after some hour... how to solve my problem...plz tell me

thank is it also possible for an arduino nano?

Brother kindly help me out. Need to use the same technique for Arduino Mega 2560.

@Bisdak Hydroponics settings are different. Wiring diagram is different. Tip 1, First just read and find the original fuse bit settings of your mega. 2, Keep the same fuse bit configuration. 3, keep the lock bit configuration to 0xC0 like this video. 4, for wiring diagram and further info. Watch my previous video and check the description. From there you will get the wiring diagram. 5, Just google "How to read and extract hex file from Arduino board" which will take you there.

Of course, you can do Here one of the Arduino is programmed as an isp programmer but if you have a dedicated USB-ASP programmer its output is always isp like MISO, MOSI, RESET, VCC, and GND that's what we need to program the MCU. So 100% you can go with that. 😊👊❤️🤗

But previously you said Arduino doesn't have Copy protection feature in Hex pulling video !!

@Ciiads

Жыл бұрын

Yes, Arduino doesn't have copy protection feature that's why we got the hex file in the hex pulling video I hope you watched it but you know Arduino is made out of avr mcu it has so many features bit lock is just one of them but Arduino is not using that feature that's why we used an avr tool to bit lock the mcu her atmega328p, Arduino is an open-source platform that normally comes with a serial bootloader and there is no chip lock, normally arduino doesn't bit lock the chip. and this is the way to lock it. ones you've done it's never gonna work like Arduino anymore unless you erase and reburn the Arduino bootloader.

Thanks for nice video. Is there any ways do extract hex (which I already have locked) file from ATmega328P.

In my knowledge the answer is no but I always believe nothing is impossible. Regards, AMN 😊

hello , is there any way that somebody can still extract the hex file from arduino if the microcontroller has bootloader inside it aswell ? I have read in some forums that is possible to still extract the hex file from the microcontroller through the bootloader that is inside the mcu. how true is that ?

@Ciiads

So chip erase then flash the without bootloader version of the hex file with the new fuse and lock bit settings. that's exactly what we did here 👍

@Email-wg8je

i saw that you flashed all the 6 lock bits . BLB01 BLB11 BLB02BLB12 are 4 lock bits that are responsible to lock the bootloader . Since you have the hex file without the bootloader then why you are still programming those lock bits ? I think LB1 and LB2 are enough to program if you have a hex file without a bootloader on it .

First, you have to develop or code your firmware for 8mhz internal oscillator Then you can burn that with 8mhz internal oscillator fuse settings To know more about fuse bit just Check the data sheet of the chip or simply google avr fuse calculator it's an online website tool to calculate the fuses for avr MCUs Or if you would like to do that in arduino ide then you just google arduino 8mhz internal clock You will reach there

Yes reprogramming is possible but that will automatically erase the chip memory. The changes are not for ever unless you erase the chip. Always you can change the fuse and lock bit settings any time you want but it will erase the chip so you don't wanna worry about that. If you want to make the Arduino board back to it's original state, I mean without any bit lock, you have to burn the Arduino bootloader. Regards. Aneeshmurali ❤️🤝😊✌️

Yes you can unlock by just erasing the chip. Or by setting lock bit to unlock bit, to do that, just uncheck all the lock bit check boxes on the bit selector and write it. that also erase the chip. Yes you can erase and reprogram the chip.

If you want have close source, don't use open.

The chip itself is not open source, the video is about bit lock atmega. There is nothing wrong to use opensource development boards to develop firmware but you have to write every piece of code your self including librarys for a closed source project or you have to buy the lisence and need to credit properly. Arduino is opensource platform but atmega MCU's are not.

What you mean? No, it's permanent as per the security features of the MCU. You can reuse the MCU after erasing it, but that doesn't mean unlocking it. Erasing it wipes the entire bit lock and program memory, meaning everything is gone.

Is arduino not open sourse ?

@Ciiads

7 ай бұрын

Of course, Arduino is an open-source development board based on the AVR Microcontroller it has security features called bit lock to safeguard against firmware copy and clones. Arduino is not a locked one it's loaded with a serial bootloader but that doesn't mean we can't use the security features of the microcontroller itself.

...if your firmware is very unique, then there is always a way to get it out from chip..i think best and most effective way is to make your firmware works as it should, only on particular chip that is uploaded to..in case of been cloned, it will simply introduce errors to any variables or data that it is processing and rendering it useless to clone anyway..

If 0xC0 is not working then you continue with 0x00 that is because there are only 6 bits in that register so 0b000000 is 0xC0, Bits 6 and 7 are not used that's why it shows the warning. 0b00000000 is 0x00 which will set the unused bits to 0 so don't worry both will work and both will do the same. continuing with the 0x00 will not gonna show you the warning ☺️👊

No matter which board you're using, it's all about the chip. Of course, you can reprogram after a chip erase, and there are no restrictions for serial communication and EEPROM usage. However, you can't upload an Arduino sketch through the Arduino IDE because that requires a bootloader, and here we've disabled read and write access to the chip as part of the protection mechanism. If you don't need any protection for your software and want to revert everything back to normal, just erase the chip and burn the Arduino bootloader. Then, your Arduino board will be back to its original state. 😊 AMN
