Hi
does anybody know of a version of arduboy-activator.hex that work work with Arduboy homemade pro micro with a sh1106 display and a W25Q128 spi flash or have a link to the relevant instructions
I am unable not sure what is happening or what option i am pressing as the arduboy screen is garbled, I have created the inverter circuit, it has a a 3.3v regulator and the relevant resister/diode connections
many thanks
You can not use the FX activator with a homemade Arduboy.
You need to flash the pro micro bootloader using an ISP programmer or use another Arduino configured as Arduino ISP.
@Mr.Blinky is right.
I usually follow this guide: https://www.instructables.com/Burn-Bootloader-Arduino-Nano-As-ISP-to-Pro-Micro/
It works with both a Nano and an Uno as they use the same chip (ATmega328P)
Don’t forget the capacitor though!!!
Hi many thanks @Mr.Blinky and @Ard_Flamingo got it sorted and working, its taken all day but i have all working and a basic setup of games, itll be perfect for the kids to play on when we’re camping thanks again
