I am using arduino uno r3 board and arduino 1.6.5 on windows 8. When Itried to upload my program on ATMEGA328 microcontroller it is showing:
avrdude:stk500_getsync not in sync:resp=0x87.
help me to solve this error
This boils down to 3 problems usually..
The bootload on the chip is missing (unlikely if you purchased the board from Arduino).
The serial connection between the arduino and the computer is disconnected or interrupted.
You've simply selected the wrong board type or port when programming, and thus the IDE is searching for a signal that the arduino isn't coming back with.
This problem is most likely due to option 3, however it can occur in odd situations especially on the Arduino Micro where the board does all USB comms on chip and can be flooded by main without an appropriate delay to the point it can't communicate with the IDE. However this is just most likely a bad board selection or a bad port selection.
I've tried many things but this worked for me. If you have a working Arduino lying around (in my case Uno) you can use it as an intermediate in-system programmer (ISP).
Follow this guide to first load the ISP sketch into your working Arduino.
Once you are done, for your non-working Arduino, select from the Tools > Programmer menu and choose Arduino as ISP, and set Board and Processor accordingly. To program choose Sketch > Upload using programmer.
Hope this works.
I think the reason that this work is that it will bypass the CH340/FTDI chip, and all those synchronization issue. Given that that is your problem.

My custom board with Atmel SAMD21 microcontroller (same as Arduino MKR Zero) is not making a USB port since yesterday. The board was working fine before that.
Please suggest ways to resolve this issue. What are the possible reasons for such an issue?
Since reset is equivalent to powering the board ON and OFF which has not resolved the issue, can burning the bootloader again help?
Further information:
The board seems fine. It powers ON and OFF in the usual manner.
This problem with the USB port connection happened while I was trying to upload the code.
The USB pin connections on the board have been checked as well as tested with different USB wires.
Appreciate your help.
Solutions to the problem:
External Hardware Reset -- using a reset button (that I externally managed to solder) -- to get into bootloader mode and start the program from the beginning
Burning bootloader again may also work (theoretically) - I have not tried and tested it.
For detailed understanding - follow this post - https://forum.arduino.cc/t/atmel-samd21-microcontroller-not-making-a-usb-port-anymore/882504/5
I have designed a custom board using atmega32u4 with a few other components (Such as RTC, memory and etc) but left them empty to test if the microcontroller can be programmed. After just hand soldering the microcontroller and the necessary capacitors and resistors, ATMEL Studio can't read device signature.I'm using AVRISP MKII. This board was inspired by ARDUINO ProMicro in design. The things I tried to solve it:
Measure all 3.3 volt supply lines and all of the grounds. (They all correspond with PCB and schematic)
Checked SPI lines to see if microcontroller receives commands from the programmer by using oscilloscope.
I tried removing the 16MHZ crystal, still the same.
I reflowed the microcontroller since it is a QFN type (atmega32-MU package) and I have a few via holes under the micro for flux to come out.
I have properly washed the board after reflow.
I have AREF grounded with a 0.1uF capacitor and !HWB pin (PE7) is left empty. I didn't ground it.
I tested the programmer with an actual promicro board and it programs fine.
I think I'm missing something but I don't know what... I'd be grateful if you guys could help me. Attached is the schematic of the circuit.
The micro controller RESET is indicated by MICRO RST on pin 13. That RESET on PB4 is for another device which is not populated yet and left empty, I checked Pin 13 with Oscilloscope and it seemed working fine and going to zero at the first moment of programming. Also MISO and MOSI and SCK were sending signals to the relevant pins.
Thanks
If you are programming the board with ISP you have to connect RESET to the programmer. otherwise the controller could not be programmed!

It seems that your RESET is on PB4 but for programming it should be connected to RESET of uC.
So, I realized the problem after almost a month! I had removed the 16MHz crystal from the circuit and this caused the problem with programming. Now, after placing the crystal the program is successfully uploaded to the ATMEGA32U4.
I was troubleshooting why Serial1 was always throwing undefined errors in sketches I was trying to run when I found a solution posted online for a slightly different board that suggested this line:
HardwareSerial Serial1(2);
I uploaded it and now the Arduino doesn't show up in the IDE, did I remap it's serial communications? Why is this possible!
Is there any hardware factory reset option available on these boards? Did I just brick my device?
edit: It seems the STM32Cube programmer app can be used to communicate with the device but I'm not sure where to get the original firmware to flash. https://imgur.com/a/LbiHenf
Assuming from the tag in your question, I guess you have an STM32 – (BluePill) Development Board (STM32F103C8).
If you think that your board is not handling serial communication properly then you might consider burning bootloader to your board. This will reset the complete configuration of your board.
There are many ways in which you can burn bootloader to your board.
Using another Arduino board like Uno / Nano / Mega
Using an FTDI USB to TTL Serial Adapter.
You might want to go through tutorials list below:
Getting Started with STM32 using Arduino IDE: Blinking LED
Programming STM32F103C8 Board using USB Port
I have an Arduino Uno and I am using arduino 1.0.5 IDE. I followed he procedures for bootloading an atmega328P-PU on a breadboard.
I uploaded the ArduinoISP sketch first, made the connections(using the External Oscillator) and then wired it up. Then, I selected the programmer as Arduino as ISP, selected the board as Arduino duemilanove w/ Atmega328P. Then I selected the correct serial port and clicked Burn Bootloader.
I got the following errors:
avrdude.exe: stk500_program_enable(): protocol error, expect=0x14,
resp=0x50avrdude.exe: initialization failed, rc=-1 Double
check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.avrdude.exe: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14,
resp=0x51
How to solve this issue? Also, can I upload the bootloader directly by using it on the Uno in place of the original chip. If so, how?
to my understanding the error you have indicates a bad reading from the chip. I experienced that with chips that were either dead or not properly connected, especially to power supply.
You may find more detailed information in th tutorial : https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP
Especially those things :
Note for Arduino 1.0: you need to make one small change to the
ArduinoISP code. Find the line in the heartbeat() function that says
"delay(40);" and change it to "delay(20);".
Select the items in the
Tools > Board and Serial Port menus that correspond to the board you
are using as the programmer (not the board being programmed).
Instead of arduino built-in boot loader just go through below link and it will be great for uploading boot loader and verifying board status info
I am replying you this because same issue I got long back and it saved me.
One more thing for arduino boot loader: for atmega328 you need to put capacitor between reset and gnd( in case you missed)
For gammon bootloader you don't need it.
Be Innovative.
For reset line you might me using 100nf(thats what stated in documentation )...but sometimes it doesn't work...try something like 4.7uf, 22uf or 47uf or close values
I had a similar problem and the issue was that my programmer was a bit slow, I used the -B flag for avrdude to slow down the bitrate and it started working, I set the -B20 and works like a charm every time, but I use the USBTinyISP programmer, not the stk500 one, so this might not work for you.
In case someone stuck at this as I did and nothing like changing the cap value helped. Make sure you are using your USB-TTL adapter in a 5v mode (obviously for a 5v powered chip). I always used it in a 3.3v mode in order not to accidentally burn my 3.3v chips and it always worked. Until today, I was trying to flash my custom atmega8 board and everything worked with the ISP but I was having a hard time using the bootloader and after half a day searching and trying different stuff the 5v setting to the rescue.
I have been working with the Arduino system with an Arduino Uno chip for a while, but I recently came upon a problem I cannot solve. The problem is that whenever I attempt to upload a new program to my chip, I get the following error:
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
I have done some research, and I have tried everything that people have suggested. I have checked the COM port, checked the chip type, checked the component installations, updated the FTDI drivers, hit the reset button, tried the latest Arduino software, and yes, I have even made sure the board is plugged into the computer.
Earlier this year I had absolutely no problem uploading code to my board, and almost nothing has changed since I last tried it. The only thing that has changed is the cable I have used to upload the programs, and I have tried several different cables as well. Could it just be a batch of bad cables? This seems unlikely. I have also tried uploading code onto different boards, with the same result.
This is getting quite frustrating, as I really want to continue working on my projects. However, that will not happen if I cannot even print "Hello World!" to the serial monitor.
I am running on a 32-bit Windows 7 machine. Any suggestions to solving this would be greatly appreciated.
If you are expecting a normal upload using Serial then you should ensure your preferences are not set to "Upload using programmer" and that you are not selecting "Upload using programmer" from any of the Arduino menus.
EDIT
If you have not overridden the programmer then you must have the wrong board selected on the tools menu boards list. lpt1 in the error message is not what the Uno uses.
It turns out that the problem was the FTDI cable I was using. I tried a bunch of different cables until I found one that works, and now uploading occurs without any problems.
check the board you have selected in tools-> board . If you selected wrong board error comes as above. If right board being selected still getting same error , then it is definitely boot loader crashed error. You need to upload boot loader.
Sometimes parts connected to digital pin 0 and 1. The parts interfere communication between the computer and arduino so I recommend this procedure.
Check something is connected to D0 and D1.
If something is connected, unplug those.
Upload the sketch.
Plug parts removed at step 2.
your arduino maybe not uno, change board to duemilanove.
