as you can probably guess from my title, i have done the dreaded thing and thought i was doing a good thing - upgrading the firmware on my LG drive to version 1.05, and then realising it was a pre svc ns50 drive and now it does not work.

Ive read through the forum guidelines, and have downloaded sdftool flasher - it sees the drive BH16SN40_1.05 and i wish to write the firmware with 1.01 as downloaded from here - however i could only find firmware for drive WH16SN40 - is there a firmware available for the BH or will the WH work?

im double checking before i press start and potentially make things worse!

thanks

I have another suggestion for you to try. I still recommend getting off that encrypted firmware first so:

Using SDFtool Flasher,
1. Flash drive to BH16NS40_NS50_1.03_MK (with enc checked) (see attached files)
2. Try and flash drive to ASUS_BC-12D2HT_3.01_MK (see attached files)

If step 2 works and the drive shows as ASUS, please try the next step.

3. Flash the drive with DE_LG_BH16NS40_1.01 (see attached files).

Hopefully this all works and your drive is restored to BH16NS40 1.01.

Hello, I'm sorry for replying to an old post.
I successfully completed step 2, but step 3 is not working.
BH16NS40 1.01 cannot be applied in the ASUS firmware. Please help me.
