Hi,
user of MKR1000 board here! (OS X / Arduino IDE 1.8.5 (which is >1.6.10) / WiFi101 library v0.15.2)
I am experiencing the same problem as described in other issues - but on a MKR1000 board:
java.lang.Exception: Error while writing flash memory.
at cc.arduino.plugins.wifi101.flashers.java.FlasherSerialClient.writeFlash(FlasherSerialClient.java:133)
at cc.arduino.plugins.wifi101.flashers.java.JavaFlasher.updateFirmware(JavaFlasher.java:86)
at cc.arduino.plugins.wifi101.UpdaterImpl$3.run(UpdaterImpl.java:138)
The Wifi part of my board seems to be bricked by now which is most annoying. What can I do?? I looked at the other issues posted here but did not come up with a proper recommendation for my case (as I use an Arduino MKR1000 board and not a WiFi101 or Adafruit board).
I tried different Wifi101 library versions, changed USB ports and cables and did everything as described in the tutorial https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/FirmwareUpdater
In can successfully launch the Firmware Updater Utility from the IDE and can see the USB port and the test of the board works fine.
Updating the firmware (no matter which version I choose) is not successful:
erasing target... Error while writing flash memory.
Clicking the upload button again leads to a "Programmer not responding" error message.
I need to reboot the MKR1000 in order to reach it again from the Update Utility.
So what are my options?
