Liteon DG-16D2S Erase/Flash Support Here! DONT think its a brick read first.

good info...

its simple.

use dosflash to erase the liteon full stop.dont use anything else.when you have read the info leave the drive in a working state and erase and flash it in dosflash.use the one that comes with the ixtreme1.5 package.

a lad came from leeds today and in jungle flasher it hung on bank2 while erasing,so i had a partial erase bricked liteon.

tried all sorts in windows.

so i say this now.dont try anything in windows,if you do and it keeps hanging then your tough luck.

in dos nothing will freeze as its a usb drive and theres no operating system to lock up.

if you power on your bricked or so called bricked drives when you get to dos,not before and then type doflash,it will run a list.type the number that corresponds to the drive and when it gives you the choices of what you want to do choose LITEON E.this will erase the drive,so any partial erase/writes will now become 100% erased.

then simply run dosflash again and this time choose to write.be sure you got your hacked firmware in the usb or whatever boot device you use and when you type the name of the firmware when it asks for it type the name with .bin at the end and it will write it no prob.it will do another erase first.

so rather than use a problematic jungle flasher stick to dosflash to erase and write the drive then there wont be probs.rather than pi**ing round with drives locking upo windows and dosflash32 use dosflash.

jungle flasher is its first kind so it is realy temperemantal.i did drives with it no prob now it is an asshole with other drives.

i tried with xbox hoooked up, with power on than off.i boot by nt dos free dvd with my dvd -rom drive and a hd on ild master2.

dosflah will only find my ide drives which are my ide dvd drive and my ide hdd on master2.

do's not find my sata via vt6421a card at all.

i tried in mtkflash patched with my via vt6421 port 1440

and nothing.i did my spoofed sammy with my lite-on keys

with my patched mtkflash.

now i am stuck on this lite-on

no. just erase it in dos its hard to brick a liteon!

[thor107]

i typed lite lite-on e it says it was erased but then it fails flashing it. i says something about an unknown flash size. 0 kb's when it should be 256kb. I'll do it again and write the exact message i get

I dont use l-o-erase. dosflash does that for me and had no probs so far works every time.

[thor107]

Ok after I accidentally flashed my lite-on with the samsung firmware. I tried to re flash the lite-on with dosflash it says unknown flash size.

[thor107]

Ok I fixed it. during when dos flash starts turn the 360 xtrackor off and on twice, press e. right after you hit enter turn it off and on quickly (within) a second and the lite on should erase. After that flash it with your custom firmware. Thanks for the input everyone.

Can I use a buffered jtag, it uses a 3.6 volt battery pack?
Its not my xbox with the Lite-on dvd, so I am not sure if I should try and read the keys. But I would like to try!

[saleem]

@sarrcon.

try it theres no harm it will either work or it wont.but,theres no harm in trying it.

more info:

also i seem to find that to get a liteon to erase and flash in dos i actualy need it to error out in jungle flasher or it erases with liteon e in dosflash but,returns unknow chip error when asked to write.

seems weird but,it happened today with a drive.i thought i will have to use jungle flasher and then it locked on bank 3 of erase and then when that happened i went to dosflash and ran liteon e option and when it finished erasing i ran write option and i had no probs,it asked me for name of firmware and when i entered it it ran the flash no probs,checksum'd everything good.

now thats weird s**t man as i have to have a drive thats error'd or dosflash aint good for me.every error'd drive it erases and flashed no probs.

so it gos to show that you can post your tutorials and it will only help some and then you can post what works for you but,it wont work for others.
