to write into flash I have to use -f --unprotect-flash Flags to write into permanent memory.
Otherwise it would write into temporary memory, which falls Back when reset the Chip or Power off

This works, but is not easy as looks...I am using openFPGALoader with Altera usb-blaster.
to write into flash I have to use -f --unprotect-flash Flags to write into permanent memory.
Otherwise it would write into temporary memory, which falls Back when reset the Chip or Power off
I fought two days with many programmers with no result.
I have success with github.com/dirtyjtag/DirtyJTAG/releases/tag/2.0 ( github.com/dirtyjtag/DirtyJTAG/tree/master/docs/img ).
It is Interesting, the openFPGALoader with DirtyJTAG can write to protected flash, but not unprotects it permanent.
You can write bitstream to flash with DirtyJTAG, but with original Lattice programmer and software flash is still invisible...
openFPGALoader --unprotect-flash --write-flash -c dirtyJtag --bitstream filename.bit
