Birdy Hitachi-LG Friendly Flasher with Xtreme v1.2 (All versions) *Update*


*Update* !WARNING! From GaryOPA
[QUOTE]
I get back and see nice “post” from Birdy. — Neat program… BUT NEEDS WORK.
DO NOT USE FOR V32 / V36 / V40 DRIVES.
WAIT FOR AN UPDATE.

The reasons are:
#1: V32 code is in the V36 folder
#2: V36 code is in the V32 folder
#3: V40 is missing, has V46 code instead

Simple fix for “Birdy” to do. — By the way, thanks for giving us credit for our work.

Birdy released a new version of his Hitachi-LG FW package, that now has a nice GUI tool for flashing your drive (instead a of cmd-line application):

FLASHING YOUR DRIVE:
* This application automatically makes a backup of your firmware and asks for save location.

- Hit go and wait,
- There will be a prompt asking where you want to place the backup of the original
firmware (before patching)
- The flash must start, if some “retry” windows appears hit YES/OUI until finished
