got a asus 16d1ht that has 3.11 on it. am i sol? or doing something wrong?
tried reading and searching the forums but i feel like im missing something.
i have tried the powershell method trying the MK firmware pack, also the "all you need pack". both went to 100% and "done successfully" was shown. but going back into mkv the drive is still at 3.11

current MKV settings

1st post of Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2024 will tell all.

Look for "Mac/linux commands to flash."

Hint: ASUS-BW-16D1HT-3.11 is listed as encrypted, so be sure to include 'enc' in the command line.

SDFtool Flasher on Windows is the most foolproof flashing method.

tried the sdflasher and it was giving an error
ran the firmware with powershell like in: How To Flash Videos and commands:

New Updated guide for all Drives and firmware including encrypted firmware: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyQV1aPlbow


that was successful but mkv still reported 3.11

i just re-ran the sdflasher and firmware took. now mkv is reporting 3.10, so i guess im all good now.
thanks for the responses
