Yes, I've just switched off power saving for all USB Hubs, COM ports and Logitech driver. Got same error again.

You told the other guy with similar error that soldering GND, D2 and D3 is required. What does it mean? Doesn't it work through common cables (like in this guide http://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=DIY ... or_dummies)?

I didn't solder anything too.

Hi

Can you post some pictures I just want to see something.

If you have a setup where you have header pins soldered then it should not be a problem, the board I used came with pins you had to solder or you can solder directly to the board. But Soldering should give you the best long term performance.

As you can see if you do not solder you can not get a good connection, the solder gives you a good connection because its acts as a filler closing the gaps and allowing current to pass seamlessly.

Check TX/RX wires. In CP2102 they changed it again (they are not misleaded now)

TX/RX are good. If I switch them, GIMX log tells me that they are connected wrong.
