Good, writing to the flash chip apparently didn't do anything. Please check the connections (especially those to write protection pins) between the programmer and the flash chip. If you think the error is caused by flashrom please report this to the mailing list at flashrom@flashrom.org or on IRC (see https://www.flashrom.org/Contact for details), thanks!
