Re: when im dumping the original firmware help??

after you have successfully dumped the key, boot back into windows, and place your orig.bin (key) into the program FW toolbox and the key will pop up in the box. if its a bunch of random numbers and letters, then youve got the right key. if you dont, then it wasnt a successful dump, try again.

Re: bloopers of crypie & I making the Iprep101 v006 video guide.

pretty funny. sometimes i didnt even see what the problem was though, like "agree to the disclaimer" i actually learned some stuff too. the final cut that got posted was a little confusing about when to turn on the drive, then off, then back on again. that was a little clearer in the bloop...

Re: original bin?

it is possible that you could screw up your box if your flashing it yourself, but as long as you have a copy of your original, you can always use it to just flash back. they come out with f/w updates several times a year usually. if your not going to be playing on live, then you can pretty much hack...

Re: samsung ix1.4 upgrade questions

ok, so iprep formats the usb to make it bootable AND flashes the dvd drive...easy enough
