Liteon DG-16D4S 0225 (Slim) Unlocked PCB / Pro Kit - Step-By

Post by yamackbuddy4 »

Guide by Ubergeek

Requirements:

Xecuter X360USB Pro
DVD Drive Power source (the tutorial uses an Xecuter CK3 Pro - but of course you can use a CK3 Lite also)
Xecuter DG-16D4S Unlocked PCB (you can also use the PCB that had the Pro Kit installed too)
Sata Cable (Supplied with X360USB Pro)
USB Cable (Supplied with X360USB Pro)
Latest version of Jungle Flasher (Must be v0.1.85 beta and above - Not released just yet)
Latest version of X360USB PRO firmware (must be at least v18)
X360USB PRO Windows Drivers
Windows XP / Vista / 7 - 32bit or 64bit
MAC OSX (Using Parallels, Bootcamp or VMWare)

OK we are ready to begin.........

1. Load up Jungle Flasher and...

(1) Select the DVDKey 32 Tab
(2) Make sure the I/O Port is set to 0x000
(3) The X360USB PRO should be detected as Primary Master and the Firmware version will be displayed (in this case it is Ver 0.18)
(4) The Liteon DG-16D4S should be detected and ready to work with
(5) Make sure Dummy.bin is ticked
(6) Click on the SlimKey button

2. You will be asked if you want to send the unlock command to the drive. Click No.

Image

3. Now click Yes and then power cycle the drive (Turn the CK3 Pro power off then on)

Image

4. The drive will now kick into vendor mode (0x72)

Image

5. Jungle Flasher will now perform a number of tricks to get the all important drive key

Image

6. You will be asked to save the Dummy file which contains the important data from your drive such as your drive key. DO NOT LOSE THIS FILE !

Image

7. The following part of the guide is solely to show 3rd party tools working with the X360USB PRO. You must own any game that you backup and we do not condone any kind of piracy and this is purely for educational purposes only. We do not provide any of the LT Plus firmware files and they are not provided or included with Jungle Flasher so do not ask for them. Once the drives firmware has been read Jungle Flasher will ask you if you want to auto-load the Lite-On iXtreme firmware. Click Yes.

Image

8. Everything is now loaded into Jungle Flasher and you are ready to go. lets explain whats happening on the screen at the moment.

(1) The source buffer is loaded with the Dummy.bin from your Liteon DG-16D4S drive. It shows here that it is an 0225 SlimKey extraction.
(2) This is your DVD key - always keep this safe !
(3) This is the iXtreme LT+ firmware auto loaded into the target buffer. This example shows the LT+ v1.9 0225 Firmware which is for the new 2.0.13146.0 dashboard update.

Image

9. At this point you will unplug your DVD drive and now connect the Xecuter DG-16D4S Unlocked PCB (or your custom made PCB with the Pro Kit installed). You don't have to rig it up to your DVD drive chassis just yet - you can simply connect the PCB to the X360USB PRO and the CK3 Pro. Make sure that the power cable is the correct way around from the CK3 Pro and that the WP switch is set to "WP=1". Now you are ready to program the PCB.

(1) Select the MTK Flash 32 tab
(2) Click the I/O refresh button and make sure that the drive properties show that its a PLDS DG-16D4S
(3) Set the drive type to Phat (this is not a mistake)
(4) The PCB will detect as a Liteon Slim
(5) Click the Intro/Device ID button

Image


10. You may need to power cycle if the drive doesn't kick into vendor mode on its first attempt. Most of the time it will kick straight in though.

(1) You are now in Vendor Mode
(2) The drive properties should be on display - everything is looking great !
(3) You will see a new button that says 0x00. This is the SPI Lock Status. 0x00 means it is unlocked and write protection is disabled.

Image

Image

11. Now click on Write. As you can see the write / verify commands are sent very quickly with the X360USB PRO.

Image

12. Now click on the SPI Lock Status button

Image

13. The SPI Lock Status will now change to 0x8C. This means that the Write Protect is now enabled. Move the switch on the PCB to "WP=0"

Image

14. You are now all done

(1) You can now click the Outro / ATA Reset button to take the drive out of vendor mode (With the 0225's you should hit this button a few times - this solves the "Open Tray Error")
(2) The drive properties show show that it is a PLDS DG-16D4S 0225
