Then extracted Teddy's three hexranges into a test-file 2 for comparison.įile comparison check between test-file 1 and test-file 2 (the three Teddy's hex-ranges), checksums identical. Then made EEPROM-firmware dump of this with this Dosflash 1.7 Then flashed back 1.02 firmware from 1.03 (UN)Friendly, but couldn't take 1.02 original firmware dump, taking "DE_flash_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BH16NS55_1.02.bin" instead, which "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" just works successfully, and I want to test if "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" works properly. Then made EEPROM-firmware dump of this with this Dosflash 1.7: Then extracted Teddy's three hexranges into a test-file 1 for comparison. UHD-(UN)-friendly) anyway ( in such a case) with successĪlso tested if BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe is working properly:įlashed temporarily into a 1st BH16NS55 with fw 1.02 friendly, an 1.03 firmware-dump (Un)friendly-firmware from a 2nd BH16NS55 unit, using BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe: and I want to test if "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" works properly. lower version) or to a higher version (e.g. "DE_flash_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BH16NS55_1.02.bin" for downgrade, gotten from other site linked here, worked successfully.ĮEPROM content's with an UHD- friendly firmware:įlashing a NOT-specially adapted original-firmware-dump from friendly to other firnedly-fw (e.g. "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" rejects flashing both, an friendly-original-firmware dump.Īs well prohibits to flash "flash_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BH16NS55_1.02.bin" (= NOT-specially adapted Clean-friendly firmware).įlashing an adapted special firmware, eg. Did a few own tests and got to the same result, you described.ĮEPROM content's with an (UN)friendly firmware: So at might still be wise to still make a original firmware backup dump with Dosflash, and in case of failure have an SATA-IDE-capable computer in stock.īut on the other hand it is also a risk that people FALSELY press "E" (erase), directly next to "R" (read =backuping), so beware to have selected ONLY "R" when pressing return!!Ĭlick to expand.Thx for helping. Only with Dosflash_1.7 or Dosflash 2.0 for example (which still requires SATA-IDE mode), together with the original unit's firmware-dump-backup, was able to reanimate the drive. This was here for testing, if "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" still detects the UHD-unit allowing flashing back an original firmare-dump, the comfort way, from an already made original-firmware dump, made with Dosflash (original Backup dump very important, not to leave out), especially with this normally very risky step to erase the unit EEPROM or flashing other firmwares, without backuping firmware first!!!īH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe was unable to detect the unit with an erased EEPROM. I have backup firmware dump stored savely elsewhere. Keep in mind this tool can't backup your original unit's firmware.Īlso I had erased the EEPROM's content with Dosflash 1.7, and had left it erased temporarily and booted back to Windows. But I'm not sure which of you, either "MartyMcNuts said" + "coopervid" or if Terramax were right.

Well I first expected also as it is called "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe, so that it was "hacked" and that patch would remove also that restriction, so you can use the tool on downgrades from UHD-(un)friendly firmwares. So this actually "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" goes on unfriendly-FWs as well? If yes, actually that would be cool, + working also in SATA-AHCI-mode and also in USB enclosures. Yet it is not said clearly imo that UHD-rippings works fine too, or just appears downgraded (but maybe not correctly downgraded).


So now I'm confused.īut in the bottom three quotes it is confirmed that the downgrade from (un)friendly firmware would work. And Terramax said that this tool would only be able to downgrade when downgrading with only still from an already (UHD-friendly-firmware), so that the tool would ( not) be suitable on higher firmware-versions when the downgrade was from an UHD-( un)friendly-firmware.

Because the tool "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe", you and user "MartyMcNuts" (within "NEW UHD Friendly FW Flashing Tool + Firmware.zip )" provided have identical checksum to the tool "BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe" within "UP_cross.rar", which Terramax provided (identical file) in another thread (linked + quoted below). That this works downgrading an UHD-friendly drive even from UHD-(un)friendly firmware according "MartyMcNuts" and you.
