Hi JCass5,

Since you mentioned that you are able to program the Arria 10 with a .sof file, I assume that you are able to use Quartus programmer and a download cable (such as USB Blaster) to program the Arria 10 via JTAG interface. Are you able to program the MT25QU flash device with a .jic file using Quartus programmer? The Quartus Prime v18.1 should have the option to allow users to generate the .jic file for MT25QU for Active Serial configuration. Thus you can test the MT25QU with the standard programming process using Quartus programmer and .jic file. If the Active Serial configuration is successful after programming MT25QU with the .jic file, this indicates no hardware or signal connection issue.
