Lite-on Write verify failed! Now it only returns Drive Status 0x80 and FF80 in DOS

I've been doing this for a long time now and I know my way around. I have flashed 50+ 360's and many of those were lite-ons. This particular one is a lite-on 74850c. This is someone elses code but this is exactly what I got:

I have since tried everything I could think of. I have tried using DOS with L-O-ERAS and I only get status FF80. I have ran dosflash but it reports "No ATAPI devices found". I have tried cycling the power to the drive at numerous different times to no avail. The drive does not respond to the connectivity kit ejection button (as is expected) but I have been opening the drive manually and leaving it half opened during the procedures. I have also tried using Lite-On-Erase in Windows. I have tried to resend the intro and power the drive off/on quickly, as JF requests, but all it does is return a continuous row of dots. I am running Windows XP 32 bit. I have a VIA 6421 sata chipset with the drivers uninstalled. This setup has worked for all other systems in the past. I am open to any ideas. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

 

I was using JF 1.67 and I was going from Ixtreme 1.60 to Ixtreme LT.

 

You need the latest version of Jungle Flasher (1.70) for LT Firmware support.

I have the same problem with one of my liteon's... tried JF, Dosflash, Dosflash32, Iprep... all to no ends. I receive the same No ATAPI Devices found...or FF80, 0x80, tried l-o-eras and port number, everything I could find here and other forums...

I have since given up..... I have pretty much the same setup as you, and have the latest JF, etc.

I will keep a look at this post to see if u happen to find a cure.

Best of Luck.

 

try changing which port on your SATA card you're using. Use the one in the back of the card. I flashed my drive the other night & it failed on Write & afterwards it wouldn't see the drive anymore. I remembered reading somewhere to switch to the back port on the SATA card & when i did that it recognized the drive instantly & flashed with no issues.

Hope that helps.

 

Ya, I noticed that I was using the wrong one after I had the problem. I tried to use the v1.7 immediately afterwards but still got the same thing. It might just have been too late.

I have also tried using the back port of the VIA card. It doesn't seem to even recognize the drive now. I just get a status FF with continuous dots when I send the Intro.

 

walk away from it, try again tomorrow. For some reason that works too

 

read the jungleflasher.pdf file, it has a fix for your problem

 

Thank you for the response. I've read through the pdf file but haven't found what you're referring to. Could you specify which part you were referring to? I am eager to see what I've done wrong and I have a few other people who are experiencing this same problem and are hoping for a solution. Thanks in advance.

 

Well, I've now successfully flashed a different Lite-On drive using the same setup as I was trying to use to flash this one. I can now say that, whatever is wrong, it is with the drive and not the way I am doing it. I know that every drive is different, but I have honestly tried everything I could think of. I am posting a video on youtube that shows my numerous failed attempts to get this to work. The solution is: If you were able to get the key off the drive then just get another drive for $20 and spoof it into your system. It appears that the drive is bricked.

 

Unless you plan on going live, because doing that will get you banned.

 

If your drive is on 0xA000 why did you pull the key from a different port?

Also, it's a lite-on, it can't be bricked, just keep trying and it will erase itself.
