Issues flashing WP50NB40

[sweepy_time]

What I did:


Downloaded this https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HRnbXi ... sp=sharing
Downloaded this viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22896
Start MakeMKV (I did this to make the drive show up in the GUI flash program)
Start the Gui flash SDF program and check “include boot loader”
Select the bluray drive, select the firmware in the “all you need” pack in “LG slim BP50NB40-NB50”, Write firmware, hit START, wait for it to finish
Select the RECOVERY option and in the pop up, select the same firmware that I just flashed.
Select the “LG slim USB BP60NB10” firmware in the normal dropdown
Click START

Doesn't seem to be doing anything. The drive does not change in the dropdown it still says D: HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BP50NB40_1.03_212005070917_SIM22217N4135

No matter what I do. Ive flashed it about 5 times already. Here's my Drive info from Makemkv

It appears you have completed the first step. You must not be doing the recovery process correctly. Watch and follow the recovery process in the gif of the SDFtool flasher thread. I also suggest you use BU40N 1.00 firmware and not the BP60NB10 firmware.

I have the exact same issue, whether I try to write or recover the sdflasher tool says done after a couple of seconds and I cannot flash to any other firmware.

Email me for an automated flasher.
