LT Video Tuts

[leafeator]

I, being a big newb, think that video tutorials on the new LT installation would be a big help!

Thanks

With the exception of lite-ons 8xxx v2's and the 9xxx's, its the same procedure with jungle flasher. The 8xxx v2's and the 9xxx's are exactly the same with their procedure and as soon as I get the next chance, I will be doing a vid tut on them. I just don't know when that will be though.

guys
the vids on the 8xxx v2 and the 9xxx dvd drive
need to be dont right.
we , most of us have not done enough to be messing around with a vid at the same time
i know sadalius has done some (not many)
i on the other hand have not even seen one.

we have never jumped the gun on doing any thing
and when we do release vid we want them to be as good as we can make them

flashing these drive will be done different because off the need to cut at least one trace (or more)
there are all some new things coming out to help in the flashing
we need the dust to settle and we will have a look into the 1 or 2 way we want to make vids on.

they will come
but like wine not be for there time

There is at least two traces you have to cut on the 8's and 9's. Depending on which way your comfortable with. The way that I am comfortable with requires you to cut three traces. On top of that, soldering in a switch to manipulate the voltage going to the flash chip to trick the controller into giving up the firmware and then to think the flash chip is empty to be able to program the new firmware to it. It is a little bit of work.

Ill get sadalius and others input on that
and see what we all come up with.

I've also yet to see a 9 series. All the 8 series ive seen have been v1.

Hey, Do you need the LT switch to use the Ck3 probe v2=?

[CoFree]

at this point im not sure
it not out yet

[sadalius]

I'm not sure if you will need the LT switch to use the v2 probe. I don't think you will. If my thinking is right, the LT switch is built into the v2 probe. You don't actually need either a probe or a LT switch to get the job done, but will probably be a whole lot easier that way.

[Gony]

Very good. I just installed the Switch on a old 74850c drive. I know that i dont need to install it but wanted to test it.
it worked great but a lot of solder and yeah.

Anyway this is a better solution.

[sadalius]

I should rephrase what I said. If your using the MRA method of dumping a lite-on, you don't need a probe or an LT switch. If your doing the original method on a 7x or 8x v1, all thats needed is the normal connectivity kit and probe. The MRA method, as far as I know will work on all lite-ons.

Sweet knowing that the LT switch works pretty good though.

realy looking forward to seeing your vids of the 838 v2 and the 9 series of the liteon's - I see you have high regard for the executer ck3 kit ... as do I - have you seen the maximus vampire an what do you reckon to that ? - to my next point in your view do you think there will be a time when there will be no need to cut the traces and just run through the whole process with the ck3 and software alone for these drives ???????????????????? - keep up the great work fella's - you're stars in your own right - all the best to ya

I doubt there will come a time when we dont need to cut the traces on the drive, maybe someone will figure out a new way to trick it into dumping the key but its doubtful.

If you look at the 7 series we need to probe it, the 9 series (and 8) we will need to probe it as well (or use a switch of some sort).

The vampire is the same as the lt switch, just a different brand, ive never used it, but it should work just fine.
