I got:

Code:

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop>md5sum Arduino-COMBINED-dfu-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex
374845d004d03c6ca0535bb4b6f19235 *Arduino-COMBINED-dfu-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex

[Reply #16 on:]

Same as before:

Code:

MD5 (Arduino-COMBINED-dfu-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex) = 374845d004d03c6ca0535bb4b6f19235

I get

Code:

8642f9f240d1d0fdeb1d2f6fb0185452

for mine. Compared to your's which is 21kb, the one I was using so far is a whopping 34kb in size..

And for the one you linked, I get the same MD5 as you do

Code:

374845d004d03c6ca0535bb4b6f19235

You don't have the right file. Edit the file. It should have this in it:

Code:

It should be 20907 bytes. If it isn't you don't have it.

Try this...

• Go here...
https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/blob/master/hardware/arduino/firmwares/Arduino-COMBINED-dfu-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex

• On the right side, about 1/3 the way down, locate the Raw button

• Right-click Raw

• Click Save Link As

• Save the file to a convenient location

• Retry flipping

Yep, the second file I downloaded, gets the same md5 and the size is 20907 bytes..
Seems like its the same hex but you could email me yours to be sure? Three's a crowd  

[Reply #22 on:]

If the md5 is the same I don't need to email it. Use that one.

Use the 20907 byte file with the md5 sum of 374845d004d03c6ca0535bb4b6f19235

I got it working!!

We were trying to use the wrong HEX all the time.

Instead of Arduino-COMBINED-dfu-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex  I had to use Arduino-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex from here : https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/blob/master/hardware/arduino/firmwares/arduino-usbserial/Arduino-usbserial-atmega16u2-Uno-Rev3.hex

Code:

md5 ba4b38e08f625cacfbeb3fb4a70d5567

The first sign that got my attention was that this HEX was also 12228 bytes like the HID hex file. They appeared to be identical (at least size-wise).

Although the Flip software is a bit odd and doesn't always upload the hex although it seems to succeed (checked what was uploaded by saving the FLASH as a new file) I finally pulled it off.

Windows greeted me with a new device and after installing the UNO drivers I just successfully uploaded the Blink sketch


Amazing how much relief a blinking led can create.



Big thanks to Nick and Coding Badly for your support!

Sorry about pointing you to the wrong file.  I'm glad you have it working.
