avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding

[pert]

I'm glad to hear you're able to upload again @Kukka!

Now you just need to identify the specific problem with the external circuitry you had connected when you weren't able to upload. The most common way for external circuitry to interfere with uploads is if you have anything connected to pins 0 and 1 on the non-native USB boards (e.g., Uno, Nano, Mega, Pro Mini). Those pins are also used for uploads, so connecting anything to them can interfere with the uploads.

Try a loopback test:

• Disconnect power from the board.
• Remove all connections and shields from the board.
• Force the processor to remain in reset by connecting a jumper wire from the RESET to the GND pin.
• Connect a jumper from the RX pin (Arduino pin 0) to the TX pin (Arduino pin 1).
• Connect the board to your computer.
• Select the port of your board from the **Tools > Port** menu.
• **Tools > Serial Monitor**
• Type some text into the input field at the top of the Serial Monitor window.
• Press Enter. If the text you typed is shown in Serial Monitor's output window, the loopback test passed. If the text was not shown, the loopback test failed.
• Close Serial Monitor.
• Disconnect the board from the computer.
• Remove the two jumper wires.

If the loopback test failed, the USB to TTL serial adapter is damaged and it's unlikely to be worth repairing your board.

Thanks Pert, seems the loopback test failed
Do I need a new board than? That`s sure?

Hello,

I had the same problem that says "stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding".

I have chosen ATmega328P (Old Bootloader) from the Tools drop-down menu.
Also, I made sure my board and ports are correct.

I hope it helps.
Thank you.

[Eris1173]

Yeah thanks but I got the UNO board.

Hi all! Just a quick summary of what has worked for me.
I noticed that all my arduino nano's suddenly had this issue of "not being in sync" or something when I tried to upload a code. (you need verbose output during upload/compilation to see this). What's WEIRD is that I was able to upload code using the Pocket AVR Programmer and the 3x2 pin header on the nano/uno, but it didn't work with the USB... odd.

SO.

I did two things and I'm not even sure they were both necessary:

1) (may be optional) I went to sparkfun and followed their link to WCH website. You can use google chrome and translate the webpage (unless you speak mandarin). Then download the CH340/CH341/etc. driver package. Once you have this, put it in the folder for arduino/drivers/ftdi bus drivers (or similar). Go to the device manager and plug in your arduino, assuming you already have some sort of CH340 drivers (windows usually does). right click the port for your CH340 device and click update driver. It will show you the folder you need and you can put your new drivers there. Then inside the popup window for "update driver" go to that same folder, and select the .inf file that came in your CH340 package. The driver is now up to date.

2) Idk why this works but give it a shot. I've done this before with success, but can't explain why. You will need the Pocket AVR Programmer or similar (like $15 on amazon or sparkfun). Plug it in and make sure you already have all the necessary drivers installed. Go to tools and select the programmer (USBtinyISP) and select the board nano. Change the processor to "ATMEGA328 (old bootloader)". Then click "burn bootloader" in tools. Now go back and change the board to "Arduino Genuino Uno". Burn the bootloader with these settings. Now you basically changed the bootloader from A to B back to A. In my experience this works.

I think the reason this works is because I mostly use knockoff arduino's for cheap because I use so many of them for little projects and such. But this has worked for me so far. I hope this is helpful!

I noticed that all my arduino nano's suddenly had this issue of "not being in sync" or something when I tried to upload a code.

Usually the easy fix for this is to select Tools > Processor > ATmega328P (Old Bootloader).

I was able to upload code using the Pocket AVR Programmer and the 3x2 pin header on the nano/uno, but it didn't work with the USB... odd.

Note that when you do an "Upload Using Programmer" it erases the bootloader, which makes it so you can no longer upload over USB until after you have done a Tools > Burn Bootloader.

You will need the Pocket AVR Programmer or similar (like $15 on amazon or sparkfun).

Another option is to turn a spare working Arduino board into an "Arduino as ISP" programmer:
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP
but it is handy to have a dedicated ISP programmer like the Pocket AVR Programmer, so that's a good choice too.

Change the processor to "ATMEGA328 (old bootloader)". Then click "burn bootloader" in tools.

This step is unnecessary.

change the board to "Arduino Genuino Uno". Burn the bootloader with these settings.

This is a great tip! That will free up 1.5 kB of program memory that would have otherwise been used for the bloated Nano bootloader. It also makes it so you are no longer subject to the bug in the Nano's old bootloader that causes it to go into an endless reset loop after a watchdog reset. Just remember to always select Tools > Board > Arduino Uno when using your Nano after this.

I double check all the factors which can produce this type of error but it's still not solved. Please check the below file.
