Re: Custom firmware pack with LibreDrive patches

Just to throw something in that an external drive will almost always be an internal drive in a caddy... remove it out and pop on the sata bus could be worth a shot (if all else is correct). And this is not one of those times. Have you tried popping the tray and given a gentle but firm pull.... mayb...

Re: NEW OPTION: 'UHD Friendly' Firmware Downgrade / Cross-Flash Using Official (Modified) ASUS Flasher for ASUS & LG Dri

3.01 and 3.02 are both UHD friendly. He included them for completeness, but, quite frankly a few of us have found that MK 3.10 to be the overall best firmware for this drive so far. That being said, 3.02 works very well. I used it on mine for over a year without issue. is it only MK 3.10 that has t...

Re: NEW OPTION: 'UHD Friendly' Firmware Downgrade / Cross-Flash Using Official (Modified) ASUS Flasher for ASUS & LG Dri

Hi, I asked previously but is it possible to use 'ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer_(Modified).exe' to go directly to DE 3.01 on the BW-161HT from 3.03? If so what is the purpose of 'ASUS ODD FW 3.02 Updater for BW-16D1HT (Patched).exe' as I thought that was to downgrade the DE 3.02 to 3.01? (my 2nd BW-161HT arr...

Re: Product Expired?

>>] is the code instantly e-mailled or does it take time (days?) to generate and email? In my case (about 3 years ago), the key came via email pretty much instantly. I assume the process is the same today, but I don't have any personal experience. Just purchased.... your right it was instant.

Re: Product Expired?

Through searching forum I'm in the boat as many where I'd happily hand over $50 in a heartbeat (even before it expired) for this great software but being in the UK it wants to charge me £51.34 ($66.97). Even on VPN it reverts back to GBP presumably based on the delivery address. Wanting to pay the a...

Re: NEW OPTION: 'UHD Friendly' Firmware Downgrade / Cross-Flash Using Official (Modified) ASUS Flasher for ASUS & LG Dri

The first link is for the modified flasher and firmware. This is for people that have not previously downloaded the DE (downgrade enabled) firmware. The second link is for just the modified flasher. This is for people who have already downloaded the DE firmware. Newer drives generally come with unf...

Re: NEW OPTION: 'UHD Friendly' Firmware Downgrade / Cross-Flash Using Official (Modified) ASUS Flasher for ASUS & LG Dri

Some of us have seen more stable reading of triple layer discs with mk 3.10. You can always go back to 3.01 or 3.02 if you decide to try mk 3.10 and don't like it. But yes that's how you would flash it. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk thanks - I wanted to give the flash a go (just to know I co...

Re: NEW OPTION: 'UHD Friendly' Firmware Downgrade / Cross-Flash Using Official (Modified) ASUS Flasher for ASUS & LG Dri

Thanks both, its clear a lot of work has gone into this and is very much appreciated - I was dreading going back to optical media when looking at 4K. I know the general consensus seems to be 'if it aint broke' but is there any benefit to me upgrading the firmware to 3.02 or MK 3.10 (...from the 3.01...

Re: NEW OPTION: 'UHD Friendly' Firmware Downgrade / Cross-Flash Using Official (Modified) ASUS Flasher for ASUS & LG Dri

Hi, Bought myself a pre-flashed Asus BW-16D1HT off e-bay, came with 3.01 and working fine however I do like to know what I'm dealing with so have been reading the thread. On page1 what is the 2nd file for 'if you already have the 'DE' enable firmware' - is that if you are re-flashing after already u...
