Custom flash support in xTIMEcomposer Topic is solved

After trying to establish communication for many hours, I find out the datasheet info for used flash memory include wrong Device ID number: 0x1f8401 instead of 0x1f8501. With proper config file (i.e. Adesto.txt) the xflash returns the following (Don't forget to first run source SetEnv on Linux!):

./xflash --spi-read-id 0x9f --spi-spec Adesto.txt --target EEZ-XE216-512-EVAL --verbose
XFlash_Options::ListDevices : xgdb --batch -q --ex listdevices devl-b5da9800

Hi. Thanks for the closure. Is it possible that you actually soldered into your PCB the AT25SF081 device?

From the AT25SF081 datasheet:

Argh, that's crazy! Yes, you are right, for some reason a wrong flash is ordered and soldered on two boards :(. Updated header and config files are attached for further reference.

On a positive note, you have more code space than you originally thought for more complex led blinky projects :) That is what I hear from my staff members all the time :)
