Verbatim 43888 Firmware 1.05 Don't Flashing

Post by Eze2kiel »

Hello everyone.
I have a recently acquired Verbatim 43888.

Here is the log from MakeMKV:

Drive Information
OS device name: J:
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE BU40N
Revision: 1.05
Serial number: ----
Firmware date: 2124-04-23 13:47
Bus encryption flags: 17

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

I'm following the steps to flash it, but I keep encountering various errors—for example:
Internal error 0x83000001
Command Procedure error code 0x82052400

Could someone provide some guidance on how to flash it correctly?

What are you using to flash it? A flashing tool or command line? If the latter, what is the command you are using?

Also note, you should not use MakeMKV v2.0.0 for flashing. Use MakeMKV v1.18.4.
Cheers :D
