Works good thanks for all your help.
ZLM Posted - 10/25/2008 : 20:43:12
Yes.
You are correct.

Name="A25L40P",ID="7F3720",Class="W25X10",Category="SERIAL_EPROM",MFG="AMIC",Vcc="3.6V",CodeSize="524288";

The full chip ID should be "7F372013", but current software only read first 6 characters. This will fixed in the next software release.
But this does not affect the chip other operations.

I guess all i got to do is change the ID to 7F3720 correct?

from this
Name="A25L40P",ID="372013",Class="W25X10",Category="SERIAL_EPROM",MFG="AMIC",Vcc="3.6V",CodeSize="524288";

to this
Name="A25L40P",ID="7F3720",Class="W25X10",Category="SERIAL_EPROM",MFG="AMIC",Vcc="3.6V",CodeSize="524288";

Click on the ID button, not read/write button.

I added that line to the devices.txt file but ID check failed. reads it ok but I can't ID it.

I tried W25X40 and it seems to work ok. I did not try SST25VF040.
