Slim DG-16D4S FW Ver:0225

I am useing the probe and i probed it and it reset the spi status to 0x00 and i tryed to write and it froze. I didnt hold the probe to it (not sure if your suppost to)I closed Jungle-Flasher and when i brought it back up i am unable to change my SPI, when i use Ctr Shift F11 it just tells me what my SPI is, it sends no commands. `

I have the drive in intro and firmware ready to right (have also tryed with firmware not ready to write)

Whats blocking me from the SPI toggle?

I will post screen shot in a seconde

Pressing CTRL + SHIFT + F11 together will (or should) force an SPI lock on the drive giving status 0x8C.

You can also try clicking Outro/ATA Reset after re-locking the SPI.

Get it into Vendor Intro and then press CTRL-SHIFT-F11.

Post a screenshot of JungleFlasher, as well as the log.

To also clarify some things.

*I am just attached to the PCB nothing else
*PCB is very hot on 2 chips where eject is
*When i attempt to prob while it writes jungleflasher freezes
*I can erase the drive only while im probeing it though
*When i read/write it acts like its gonna start then after a few dots freezes
*The probe gets very hot on the 4 resistors where you plug it in at

Why aren't you using the latest version:

Jungle Flasher V0.1.94 beta (320)

Why are you probing ANYTHING before you've pressed the SPI (0x8C) button?
I will download latest now, and the first time thats what i did do, i was pressing the button and it was sending out, then it went to 0x00 and froze when i tryed to write.

from there on it will not project the 0x8C button

So, you DID manage to unlock the SPI at one point but now it's in limbo?

How hot is 'hot' ?
Limbo? Yes i was able to unlock it the first time i attepted, i succeeded and got 0X00 but it froze and i had to close jungle flasher and from there on i have not been able to change the SPI (No SPI button under the "write" button)

Hot like very hot. It stays very hot and dosent cool down unless i disconnect power. Hot like you cant leave your finger on it more then 5 seconds.


In case of speling error i blame tapaptalk.

So you've damaged something on the PCB, which is why you're having problems.

More than likely when you were writing to it, something shorted/blew.

Replace the PCB.

Ways to avoild this? It over heated? Did i probe it wrong? I followed the guild and such and didnt do anything abnormal. Does it make a difference if i metion againe that the drive does not go out of vender mode when i power cycle the drive (while its already in vender mode)

I put the needle in the hole and it got hot and a few secondes later and a little bit of wigging in the hole it switched to 0X00.

Did you remove the PCB completely, or shield the topside from the metal chassis?

Remember, no-one saw what you did.

That tells me you did more than what you said or had something connected wrong.

The pcb was completely removed from the meatl cage and it was laying om a plastic table while i did it. No metal close to it.

I will record my next one so if i do something wrong you can tell me

The heat on the probe indicates did something wrong? Or something connected wrong?
