Not any info on what the new firmware does, just links for the download.

Heres another link that you may want to look at first:

I tried to do this firmware upgrade to my 107D. I get a message:

"The firmware of target device is not correct F/W
This firmware is not supported by this program."

I have a flashed drive, is that preventing this firmware upgrade from installing?

 

i got the same message, i think that if you have already flashed it with the cracked firmware you cannot flah again with the pioneer firmware! Why would we want the new firmware anyway, it can't be as good as the cracked one that lets you burn 4x media at 8x?

 

Give up all complex official Firmwareshit!! i am stick with the hacked patch 12xrip 4xwrite all dvd-r by flashmen/nil. That patch is great. bye bye everyone

 

I have no choice but to agree!!!!
BTW Somehow I got my Memorex +R media to burn. The only thing I can think of is I reinstalled Nero. I don't know if that would do anything, as far as burning a specific media, but at least it worked once. I hope it will work again.

You can flash it but not with pioneers tool once you have put a hacked firmware on !!!!

You need to download it from this link then when this has put you back on official firmware you can use pioneers flash tool for future updates !!

Hi mattym,
That worked great. I now have Flashman's version 1.10 installed.

I'm happy now,
Frank

 

what are the improvements with Flashmans new version, I just flashed the 1.05 version, and it works fine for me ,but if new is better than I'll re-flash , please let me know on this matter, thanks

 

Same question here. I just flashed last night with v 1.05 with no problems and burning at 8x indeed works and works well.

What does v 1.10 do differently or improve on from v 1.05? Thanks Dudes.

 

All I can say for now is that flashing it to 1.10 didn't screw it up.
I think it might have removed the first flash that let it burn -R at 8X.
I have a Verbatim "movie reel" 4X -R I'm going to try again. It burned the first one at 8X with the original hacked firmware. If it burns this one at 4X I may try and flash it back to the previous firmware.

I think if your happy with the way it works, don't flash it again.

Frank

 

I re-flashed again back to 1.05. With the 1.10 flash, the Nero burn window showed a maximum speed of 4X for Verbatim media that had showed 8X with the 1.05 flash.

Changing back to the 1.05 flash, it shows 8X again. The Memorex -R still shows 4X. An Optodisc -R shows 8x.

I've flashed this drive four times so I think I'll leave it alone! Its still working.

Cheers,
Frank

People, if 1.05 works for you, dont even think about changing it cuz it can well screw up on you. be happy that you can burn at 8x with 1.05 ;-)

 

Nero doesnt show real speed sometime after the flashing. in that case you have to reinstall the nero. That it shows correcty 8x burning. I havent try the flash 1,10. thanks anyway

 

Things are working well now with the 1.05. My Memorex 4X +Rs are burning at 4X, my Memorex 4X -Rs are burning at 8X as well as Verbatim -Rs at 8X. The Optodisc -R that showed 8X in Nero coastered after writing the lead in with a power calibration error.

Hi all, I've flashed my new Pioneer drive twice to the patched version of 105 and have not been able to create a readable DVD. Flashing it back to the original version makes it work.

I'm runing XP with on a P4 2.4ghz and an Intel MB.

Any suggestions?

 

Hi ThinMan,
Once you install the flashed firmware, the drive is going to try and burn -R media at 8X. You might be able to set your burn speed back down to 4X or slower in your burning program and see if that works.

I tried a variety of media to discover the ones that work, You may want to do this as well. If I remember correctly, this flash was created using Fujifilm -R media so that this or other media using Metal Azo dye may work the best with this flash.

Well, I live on the edge ;0)

I have tried the new official pioneer firmware, and cant see that it does much at all. My Datasafe 8x +R's still only write at 4x, but now my Princo -R's only write at 4x.
My advice, dont bother with the FW110, stick with NIL's.
By the way, I flashed it back to NIL's without many issues, apart from getting stains in me panties!!

Cheers
