Do you have your probe in the r707 point?

[malis504]

no i dont have a probe and do i need one if so where can i get one and do i need a ck3

[grandview]

yes you need a probe..with the liteon's you need the probe to get the keys off the r707 point on the drive

[HaGGardSmurf]

What you can do is build a DIY probe by splicing a couple wires. Dalecheesy is the man when it comes to this here is his tut:

Also, you can bridge the 2 solder points with a screw driver or something here is a guide from sadalius:

do i need a connectivity kit to flash my lit on drive...if so which one..will a Connectivity Kit V3 -> DVD Adapter ON/OFF button cable work

[HaGGardSmurf]

Well any ck3 will work really. You need a power button, and eject button, and some kind of serial port.

Most of the guys have a team executer connectivity kit, and some have maximus extractor's its whatever you want really.

i just got my xecuter ck3 lite need hlep setting it up..please show me a pic or vid on setting up ck3 lite.still having trouble flashing lit on drive...dont know how to connect to com port

With the comcabe you get with the ck3 lite plug it into the ck3, then look on the back of your computer for a 9 pin port and plug the other end of the com cable in there, then you plug the sata cable into your drive, then plug the power cable in from the ck3 to the drive, then plug in a molex plug into the ck3 for power.

im trying to flash with iprep but when it says "make sure that you drive is on and connect to com 6" i press enter and it says "4th alignment wrong" dont know what im doing wrong please help?

[HaGGardSmurf]

Well first off, are you using an RS232 cable in iprep? iPrep does not support the use of a usb cable, only RS232. Jungle flasher supports use of both.

[malis504]

im using the cable that came with the ck3 lite and my computer did not have a serial port so i brought a duel serial port and put it on my computer.

[HaGGardSmurf]

You will need to use the rs232 cable in iprep, you can dump via jungle flasher via the usb, and flash in iprep if you like.

[malis504]

WILL THE RS232 CABLE WORK WITH MY CK3 LITE OR WILL I NEED THE CK3 PRO

[HaGGardSmurf]

You will need the pro for rs232 support.

Just use jungle flasher to dump your lite-on and iprep to flash. Nothing can really go wrong with your drive in jungle flasher if all your doing is reading the FW.
