Thanks for the tutorial, 7 years since you uploaded it and it's still helping people out!

[@GlaucioFelizardo]

Nice video Saravanan! After trying hundreds of ways to save my uno, this was the only that worked here. Thank you!

[@brualdasil2]

Sir you are a GOD, thank you so much. I had been trying for days to flash my arduino with a hex firmware to use as a controller, and this was the only video that showed about grounding the capacitor to activate DFU mode and updating the drivers.

[@michaelhenson3278]

Thank you sir. I've been trying to figure this out for a couple of days now, very much appreciated!

[@ignacioquepo5644]

i cant thank you enough Mr Al for you incredible tutorial of how to do this process...

[@frkurfamsoad]

thank you a lot
i spent more than 10 hours trying to install my new adruino when i found your video
you helped me a lot

[@davemills41]

Thanks for this video, took me ages to find excellent, helped loads. Who knew you have to ground the capacitor!

[@alvinwj]

You sir are my hero. Got problem with my Arduino Mega can't detected in FLIP. Turns out i'm not shorting the ground to the capacitor you showed in the video. Now my Mega has been uploaded with mocoLufa. Thank you!

[@myelectronicsworld]

Among the many videos and pages I watched and visited this is the video which helped me. Thank you so much. Something must have corrupted my Arduino driver. I am subscribing.

[@satalaj]

Just because of this tutorial worked for and I changed the decision to return my gadget. Thank you so much

[@ZyronMelancon]

Thank you so much! It worked perfectly and now I'm using an HID firmware alongside a code for SNES controller! :D

[@chidambc]

wonderful video no extra fluff just to the point great work

[@RaviArya009]

Thank you for this video. I somehow messed up my Arduino uno. After following your video, i was able to fix it.

[@l2redskyhellp]

Thank's so much , my arduino didn't work for two two days , and to day i decided to fix the problem, without this video i can't do it, thank's..!!!!

[@faycalbouzenad9841]

Thank's so much, verry good video , my arduino didn't work for two years, and to day i decided to fix the problem, without this video i can't do it, thank's.

[@TashTech]

thank you, followed word for word and my board is working again!

[@YoomarTuNoOmar]

Thanks you very much, I have been looking for this tutorial all day.

[@MrsBridas]

it works perfectly, I followed the steps and I resurrected an arduino Mega

[@Lin_Raintrees]

Thanks a lot man, my UNO is rescued following your tutorial ! You just help me a lot! Merci beaucoup!

[@SonicRegret]

Totally saved my day! Thank you so much for this tutorial!

[@eliatiscom5629]

I found this video after I figured out how to update the firmware. It was a painful day... But nice tutorial!

[@leandropilar6003]

Hi there! Many thanks!!!! It worked w/ an AT MEGA 2560 also. The different thing is that I didnt consider your second wiring (capacitor wiring), just the first one [ICSP for 16u2 ---> GND]

[@besthia1]

THANK YOUUUUUUU !!!!!!!!!
I SPENT ALL DAY SOLVING THIS ISSUE,,,, YOUR VIDEO WAS THE LAST STEP I NEED. THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GRACIAS

[@mrgastavo97]

Thank you man! You have save my arduino uno and mega. Greetings from Argentina

[@Jxeer]

Thank you, this really helped me a lot.

[@shresthasingh4808]

Thanks man really thanks no words to say for this help, i am really feeling sad that my arduino is not working but you helped me ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️thanks man

[@mahdiseyedi1291]

thank you! You rescued my uno !

[@CardBoardBoxPro]

Thank you so much!! I was pissed my Elegoo Mega 2560 R3 did not work. The only difference for this boards is that to get it into DFU mode I had to simply take the pin left of the pin you used and plug it into the reset slot on the board. Then DFU was on. no need to trip the capacitor thank you much!

[@iand7518]

Same issue with an Elegoo Uno R3. Worked for a week or so then effectively bricked. Hours of troubleshooting/Googling got me here and the video sorted. Thanks so much Saravanan AL

[@Fogaata]

Many Thanks for uploading this great video

Very useful video, thank you.

[@lucasrodriguez3511]

Thank you so much! You save my life :)

[@jimsung5623]

Thanks for this valuable tutorial. I am stuck trying to do the same driver update process on a RUMBA board with Atmega 16U2 and Atmega 2560 chips. The process looks to be similar but windows keeps reloading the standard drivers. I can't make the chip go to DFU mode. Any ideas?

[@hemayetkabir1331]

Really very nice. Thank you sir.

[@pravinpatil6701]

Thanks sir excellent tutorial

[@caketoppers351]

very useful. thanks for this tutorial

Thanks for saving my uno

[@amirpanahi2765]

Thank you so much sir.

[@MrRightThinker]

I made a drum midi trigger with Arduino UNO , which also require Hairless serial to midi converter. It works fine.
Recently I upgrade it's default firmware to Mocolufa . now it is recognised as a Usb hid Device . But its Drum trigger program don't work the way it used to . It send some weird messages. How to fix this to send midi notes ?

[@sup3rm4nY0]

Thanks a lot man, I was sure my arduino was dead!

[@RossPotts]

Very nice tutorial!

[@miditec-pd8424]

good project.thenks..

[@EdCrutchley]

Just touch the isp pins closest to the usb jack together, way more simple to put in dfu mode.

[@mahela1993]

I have the same board he has in the video.. Your suggestion didn't work. Although it is the official method given in the arduino website, it doesn't work for me.

[@rbmontes]

great video. do you have a flip tutorial for NANO? thanks

[@diyhimanshu5428]

thank you so much sir

[@clarencerose8335]

well done Saravanan

[@matejponcak1106]

what should i do, if i want to upload sketch from Arduino IDE after upgrade?

[@priatnasuardi]

do you know how to do it on mega 2560 r3?

[@andrianwijayono6658]

Can you please give me some clue..
I wasnt able to enter the dfu mode for my arduino.
Im now finishing my theses and im really need it to finish my work.
Thank you for any advices..

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

[@benjaminancion8785]

Well actually it worked one, needed twice but wont work anymore.
Flip says '' blank check fail at 0x00000 " and when I unselect it, it is verify that fails...
Any option?
Thanks!

in my amtel flip, the communcation option is grayed out
any reason?
Thanks

[@Cris647-tj1sv]

I don't know about you my guy, but if anyone else is having this issue, make sure to select first the chip model in the "select a device" option, located at the upper left corner with an image of a microcontroller.
