Hi.

Please someone with Asus firmware 3.01 could share a dump of the firmware ?

These are the steps.

You need Devilscraw flasher, which can be found here :

https://github.com/devilsclaw/flasher/releases

Then, open an elevated command prompt and type :

flasher -D (to display drive and drive ID)

and then

flasher -d [drive id] -l firmware.bin 6 00000000 00200000

and it should dump the current (3.0.1) firmware of your device.

Thanks in advance. :)

@Pheran

I will never thank you enough.

Thanks mate, it's the best gift after Christmas. :wink:

It increased the ripping speed (max 35 MB/s instead of 22.5) of UHD bluray discs !!!

Does anyone know whether the BW-16D1HT-PRO (alternatively listed as BW-16D1HT PRO) model is equivalent in its UHD reading ability and firmware?

It appears to be a model made for the Australasia regions but can't find any info regarding the UHD aspect since all references in the UHD-related threads refer to the non-Pro model available elsewhere. Only reference I could vaguely source was one user who believes it's a re-badged LG BH16NS40.

I'm using a version modified by myself under pure dos and a USB stick,

but you can flash this firmware also under Windows using a LG unlocked flasher
and modify the .bin firmware (made with devilscraw flasher) with an hex editor.

Now I'm out for holidays, but I can make you a correct windows flasher together
with the 3.01 bin firmware suitable for any device having the MT1939 (MediaTek)
chipset (like almost LG and Asus recent bluray drives).

@TeddyRaspin
It would be nice of you if you could do it to me.
I do not know how to use this software.
Thanks.

I'd like to get that as well, if possible. Thanks!

Nice. Do you happen to have a 3.00 bin file that could be flashed with that modified flasher, as well? Thanks!
