Error downgrading WH16NS60 1.02
Posted: Tue Sep 08, 2020 5:11 pm
I just picked up a WH16NS60 that I am trying to downgrade to a compatible firmware. The drive came with 1.02 and I think I need to be installing 1.00 onto it (at least that is the only rom I can find for this model in the Downgrade Firmware pack. Running this on Win10 (patched to latest) in an Admin powershell prompt
PS C:\program files (x86)\makemkv> .\makemkvcon64.exe f --all-yes -d T: rawflash -i "C:\Users\john\Downloads\Downgrade Enabled Firmware V.2\DE_LG WH16NS60_1.00.bin"
Reading input file C:\Users\john\Downloads\Downgrade Enabled Firmware V.2\DE_LG WH16NS60_1.00.bin
Flashing flags = 0x0 : 0 0 0 0 : ---- ---- ---- ----
Current Drive ID: HL-DT-ST_BD-RE__WH16NS60_1.02_211810291936_XXXXXXXXXXX
Ready to write drive flash memory. (auto confirmed)
Operation started: Sending flash image to drive
98% .................................................
Write DRAM NG 05/26/03
Command produced error code 0x8f052603
I have also included a screen image of what Makemkv shows for the drive.
From what I can see, it looks like I dont have an encrypted firmware, so any idea why the flash command is coming back with an 8f052603 error code ? (and yes, my BR drive is on T: )
I will appreciate any insight/suggestions on where I have messed up on this (or if my understanding is off). Thanks.
