ASUS BC-12D2HT bricked - somebody got firmware 1.0?

[ubunonymount]

Hello,

I have bricked my ASUS BC-12D2HT.
Yes, I know I should have read the forum more carefully, but now I did it.
I flashed firmware 3.X to a MT1939 Chip.

And yes, I didn't do a backup before.
So, basically my bluray drive is now bricked, doesn't light up, doesn't do anything.

So, what I am asking you:
Does anyone have a original ASUS BC-12D2HT (pre 2015) firmware v.1.0 ?
Can anyone provide me with a link where I can download the original .bin file?

Because ASUS doesn't offer any firmware 1.0 images on there website.
They only offer 3.11 firmware and not as image, but as installer-executable.

Thank you very much!

What a pity! You should have read CAREFULLY. However, I suggested to Billy to put up a much bigger "stop sign".

See recovery section of guide you don't need a backup from sdftool you can use the lg or asus old firmware.

I'll put a bigger sign but I don't think it's actually going to help there's already like 5 warnings in there
Also Mt 1959 is not the end all safe there a few very rare drives that will still die with the I know of 1 model and there maybe more

Billy,

people don't read. Something scary must pop up before they contnue to do something stupid.

At the bottom of the first post is the BW-16D1HT 1.01 firmware. You should be able to use that.
