Asus BW-16D1H-U A201 Firmware

[Aeneas72]

Try a modified firmware to downgrade back to A101 that's your only option to get it back working

Using which program?

The one I mentioned in posting no. 17 does not work...

@Aeneas72
Next step would be to use DevilsClaw’s Flasher to flash the clean A101 main firmware.
Or if that doesn't work, dosflash - with enclosure removed.

Off to work now - will be back this evening.

Does anybody know if all versions of ASUS BW-16D1HT are UHD-friendly, or are the ones still available locked in a way that can't be downgraded? (I haven't quite followed the state of all the revisions and firmware versions.)

Lookit !
The firmware in the ZIP is a clean firmware, so DON'T use it with dosflash until you've injected/imported your calibration data as described in Teddy's guide:
https://forum.redfox.bz/threads/dumping-downgrading-firmware-on-uhd-friendly-devices.74479/

Please read his guide entirely. You don't need a Hex-Editor by all means.
The attached EEPROM Data Mover will alternatively also do the job.

EDIT: this is NOT for updating drives which have Firmware A101 !

Hi Terramex,

I had just purchased a ASUS BW-D1HT-U PRO with firmware E114. Can I just use the executable file BH14NS40_N1.00-A4_patched.exe, to flash the drive with the firmware (flash_ASUS_BW-16D1H-U_A201.bin) that you had provided? I am totally new to this and sorry if I sounded silly

Unfortunately not. The ones with E114 firmware are original Pioneer drives

That you so much for replying! It is still good to know why it doesn't work....I need to be more careful the next time though....
