Trouble with an Hitachi 79

[tbone4321]

Hi folks,
I have been wrestling with an Hit79 and JungleFlasher 1.6
for the past night and have got to the stage where I want to flash ixtreme.
when I select flash iXtreme it saves the stock firmware but imediatly comes up with the error "Cant open file".
Im not sure I selected the correct firmware as there are 4 different ones listed under ix151-79 in the firmware folder. Is this the source of my problem and if so how do I know which one to use.? If not what is the problem.? I made the 79 unlock cd and got that to work...eventually....any help would sure be appreciated

Jungleflasher should pick the right firmware based off the dump that it does of your 79. The reason there are 4 different ones is because some had their keys in a different location.

You can try firmware toolbox if JF isn't working right for you though.

Thanks for the prompt reply Sadalius......I just re done the whole procedure just there and the same error comes up each time. I dump the drive and save the OFWHit,....I then open the target firmware as ixtreme 151-79 and spoof source to target....keys are identical. Then I go to flash ixtreme, do the save and bang...error "cant open file". Ill try firmware toolbox, but am not familiar with it Thanks M8.

As for the cant open file, move your firmware into the jungle flasher FW folder.

Thanks for the help folks.....firmware was not in the right folder as you suggested.

I have never had this problem, and my FW is never in JF's FW folder, but apparently is a somewhat common problem.
