So my problem is, that when I try to upload my code from arduino it works until the end, the lights from the FTDI uploader are blinkin, and then it says that the upload failed. I am at the beginning of uploading of the codes and startet with the test buzzer code and it don’t work.
I hope someone can help me, because I need to finish my nybble cat until Monday (09.11.2020) and I don’t know what’s wrong. 🥺😓
Hi, according to your email, if you connect the NyBoard with a Pi, the serial port will interfere with the Pi, and you won't be able to upload sketches with the uploader. You need to upload the sketch without Pi and then use the Pi to send the serial commands.
So I put the Pi down and tried to upload the sketch, but every time the FDTI uploader blinks and after this the ardoino app says that the download failed.
I startet my computer again and it doesn't go away. I can try it again on my macBook because now I am working with windows. I hope there will ma any solution.
@Julia Hartmann When you plug in the uploader to your computer (don't connect the NyBoard yet), do you see a new serial port appear in Arduino IDE->Tools->Port ? On Windows, it should be "COM#". On Mac, it should be "usbserial-XXXX".
You mentioned in your email that there was some smoke during the previous operation. Do you remember where the smoke came from? If you cannot find the uploader in the Ports, then it might be broken. Also make sure that you're connecting the uploader to the NyBoard in the right direction, with GND to GND, and DTR to DTR.
@Rongzhong Li About my Email: I asked my unkle and he helped me. When he put on the battery everything was ok and he testet if the electricity is working and it works so idk what was wrong. I will try this what you wrote and I hope it works. :)
The keyword for searching is "FTDI arduino uploader". It should have 6 pins with the same label order as the one in kit.
What about the board selection? Have you setup and selected the NyBoard V0 (20 MHz)?
Yes
So what can I do now, because I would love to get the nybble cat done but idk how. Do you have any options which could work? Or is there any way to get with the framework of guarantee or something like that a new board?
Yes, please email support@petoi.com and provide your shipping information. I could not find your original order with your name.
We will ship a free replacement and set it up beforehand. Please do us a favor to ship the old board back. Flat rate shipping is ok. We want to inspect it and tell you why it didn't work. It may still be a problem in setup.
Hello,
I've got the same problem:
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 10 of 10: not in sync: resp=0xf8
Windows 10
NyBoard_V1_0
Card : Arduino Uno
Port: COM 3
I don't understand anything... (but I don't know a lot of this stuff... :-) )
You may need to install the driver for CH340 and identify the corresponding port: http://www.wch.cn/download/CH341SER_EXE.html
@Rongzhong Li It doesn't work I guess... Are the LED's colors have a meaning ?
I tried with Arduino Uno, ATMega328P (but this one is clearly 0_1 and not 1_0 like my Nybble), but nothing works... I am not a pro with this hardware and software, but I try... :-)
It still doesn't work at all...

avrdude done. Thank you.
After connecting the uploader, can you open the serial monitor and take screenshots of the outputs? Do you have a micro usb cable with data function at home? Have you tried to use the bluetooth dongle to upload the sketch? I want to locate whether the problem is in the cable, the uploader, or still some wrong configuration of your coding environment.
Serial monitor :
Arduino IDE:
I tried 2 or 3 differents cables.
I have the bluetooth dongle but i don't have bluetooth on my computer.
Let's try to find the source of the problem. And then we will send you the new parts if there're defective units in your package.
Can you take clear photos of both Nyboard and the downloader? I want to check whether there are un-soldered pins.
I did the best I can...
@Thomas Queneute Please mail your backer‘s information and address to support@petoi.com
We will deal with it as soon as possible.
Thanks!
@Len Sorry for my bad english, but what do you want I send to this email address exactly ?
OK， I'll check them. Thanks and wait a while.
@Julia Hartmann I have the same issue when connecting the board through wire. I haven't got a solution yet.
But, a walk-around should be uploading using the bluetooth dongle.
