Re: Cross-flashed LG BP50NB40 (NB52) – UHD not reading, Blu-rays are fine
No, I'm not a bot. What a bot thing to say right?
Nice pun!
What confused you in Marty's instructions about flashing the BP50NB40 drive? What changes could be made to make it more clear?
I really wish I could remember. I've tried to think about it over the last few days. Since whatever I ...

Re: Cross-flashed LG BP50NB40 (NB52) – UHD not reading, Blu-rays are fine
Clean your UHD disc or try a different disc. LG drives are not as good as Pioneer readers.
No insult intended but are you a bot? Your question about firmware on the BP50NB40 has been asked and answered probably 50 times before and a bot may just use those postings to make a realistic question ...

Re: Cross-flashed LG BP50NB40 (NB52) – UHD not reading, Blu-rays are fine
Yeah, I missed that too! This model must be cross-flashed to either BU40N or BP60NB10 to enable UHD readability (requiring 2 flashes). You have only completed 1 flash, which is the BP50NB40 1.03-MK firmware. This first flash removes the firmware encryption and does enable libredrive but this ...

Re: Cross-flashed LG BP50NB40 (NB52) – UHD not reading, Blu-rays are fine
You missed a step when you were flashing the firmware as the drive is still utilising the BP50NB40 firmware. This firmware cannot read UHD discs. For slim/portable drives only the BU40N, BP60NB10 and Buffalo firmware variants can read UHD discs.
Once it is flashed correctly the drive info ...

Re: Cross-flashed LG BP50NB40 (NB52) – UHD not reading, Blu-rays are fine
I apologize if this isn't in the right spot. I've lurked all over these, but never posted until now.
I recently purchased an LG BP50NB40 (SVC NB52) and cross-flashed it using SDFtool Flasher with the BU40N DE firmware. I ensured the bootloader was checked this last time and verified in ...
