Hello,
Recently my Arduino UNO stopped to be recognized by computer (using USB), I tried a few stuffs:
– Changed the Atmega328
– Rewrite bootloader
– Tested the controller on other board
– Measure the connection between a few pins using a multimeter
Nothing worked, so I decided to try to update the atmega8u2 firmware that is responsible to control de USB connection, I found two articles that I used as base:
Updating the Atmega8U2 on an Uno or Mega2560 using DFU e também How to upgrade atmega8u2 firmware
Both of them used solutions that needs to soldering a resistor on the board, but I don’t want to solder anything to the board, so I checked next to the atmega8u2 exists the ICSP pins, so I decided to try to burn the bootloader using them. Just to prevent other disaster I removed my atmega328 from board and connected the USB ASP to the ICSP pins. (Remember that the PIN 1 has a number or a little mark near it, mine had a small white circle)
After that, I accessed the dir that contains atmega8u2 hex of Arduino Uno (/arduino/hardware/arduino/firmware), and then I tried to rewrite the bootloader:
sudo avrdude -c usbasp -p m8 -u -U flash:w:UNO-dfu_and_usbserial_combined.hex
It didn’t worked because it is a atmega8u2 and I was trying to write it with atmega8 the error was:
avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature.
So I did a little more research and I discover that at90usb162 is almost the same, so I decided to take a shot with force (-F) option
sudo avrdude -c usbasp -p usb162 -u -U flash:w:UNO-dfu_and_usbserial_combined.hex -F
I waited it to burn, turn arduino uno off, connected my atmega328 and then turn it on and my USB just showed up on my computer, so now I can program my Arduino UNO using USB again.

PS: Right after the booloader update I tried to Upload a Sketch to atmega328 without sucess, it was out of sync, so I tried to rewrite the bootloader of atmega328, and then everything started to work.

Howdy would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a difficult time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
I have seen that rates for on-line degree experts tend to be a terrific value. For example a full 4-year college Degree in Communication with the University of Phoenix Online consists of Sixty credits at $515/credit or $30,900. Also American Intercontinental University Online provides a Bachelors of Business Administration with a whole program element of 180 units and a tariff of $30,560. Online learning has made having your certification been so cool because you can certainly earn the degree through the comfort of your abode and when you finish working. Thanks for all the other tips I have certainly learned from your website.
Good post. I learn something more challenging on completely different blogs everyday. It would at all times be stimulating to read content material from different writers and follow a bit of one thing from their store. I?d choose to make use of some with the content material on my blog whether you don?t mind. Natually I?ll provide you with a link in your net blog. Thanks for sharing.
