I would rock the DE version of flash_ASUSW-16D1HT_302.bin.
Interesting results. My LG BH16NS55 flashed fine to the ASUSW-16D1HT_302.bin. But my Pacific Rim UHD disc freezes exactly in the same moment as before.
But my new ASUS drive BC-12D2HT (downgraded to 3.00) plays perfectly fine without freezing... So it is working better than the LG.
3. Some of the most recent comments seem to indicate that using this "Cross Flashing" method may cause some issues? Rips that may not work? Writes? Or, am I just mistaken?
Worked flawlessly - Asus BW-161HT arrived from Amazon with 3.03; flashed to 3.02. It was all over in roughly 30 seconds and I'm now ripping Wonder Woman 4K at around 8x speed.
Ok, may be I should stick with the Asus 3.00 version and see if I find issues, do you agree?
In the future if I want to try, can I flash that LG FW 3.02 to my Asus? And go back again to Asus 3.00 if want to?
Thank you very very much
I may try with my LG BH16NS55 to flash to the Asus 3.00. Last chance to the LG before going to the drawer.
Has anyone tried cross flashing a drive using the calibration data taken from a drive they're flashing to and then tried burning? For reading I don't think the calibration data makes a lot of difference in these drives but I'm guessing that's why they fail to write when cross flashed. Obviously you wouldn't be able to flash like this the safe way. Just wondering if you or anyone you know have tried it.There is no point flashing ASUS BC-12D2HT 3.00 to the BH16NS55. If you do that, the LG will no longer be able to burn blu-ray discs! Most people flash ASUS BW-16D1HT 3.02 to the BH16NS55, which makes it about 20% faster.
Failure to write.
I'll stick to the Asus drive and forget about it for a while...

Isn't that what the EEPROM data mover does? Copies the important drive & calibration data onto the clean firmware?
