Trouble flashing BH16NS58

Post by cosmotic » Sat Mar 21, 2020 8:54 am

I'm having trouble flashing my drive; It's a BH16NS58 inside a BRXL-16U3.

MakeMKV reports:
Drive Information
OS device name: D:
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE BH16NS58
Revision: 1.02
Serial number: KLIJA7H5741
Firmware date: 2119-02-23 09:35
Bus encryption flags: 1F
Highest AACS version: 64

LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible, not yet enabled
Drive platform: MT1959

I removed the drive from the USB enclosure and attached using SATA

I've tried the LG crossflash NS50 patched flasher with:
* DE_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BH16NS58_1.00
* HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BH16NS58-1.01-NM00500-211711161545

And get:
Write DRAM NG
05/26/03


I've tried ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer_(Modified) with
* DE_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BH16NS58_1.00
* HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BH16NS58-1.01-NM00500-211711161545

And get:
Updating Failure #4

I tried dosflash but my motherboard doesn't do IDE for SATA so no luck there.

Any advice?

Thank you for all the job done.

I bought a used BH16NS58, then flashed it using "HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.03-NM00600-212005081010.bin" and SDFtool flasher.

It worked smoothly.

Just to let you know it works with the next version too.

Now I got this:

sorry to 2 year necro but i got this same drive in an Buffalo Enclosure, for 20$ at a flea market just got off my keister to flash to Libre Flashing to 1.02 wouldnt let me flash ths BH16NS58 specific MK Firmware, the WH16NS60 1.03 did, is it better to stay on the 1.01 LibreFW for this Specific drive or flash the Modified WH16NS60 1.03 FW back on it?
