To start off, some of you may be asking what this does. It's Xecuter's specifically made product to connect your DVD drive to your PC or Laptop. No more sata cards or that business. Here is the product info and a picture. It is said to be released on Feburary 28th, but is subject to change. The cost of this great product is set at $59.95 / 39.95 / 44.95

The JungleFlasher Team are proud to announce we have been embedding full support for the upcoming XECUTER X360USB PRO. This it the most exciting thing to happen on the flashing scene since JF hit the scene over 2 years ago.

The neat device will simplify flashing for all users. It integrates seemlessly into JungleFlasher( program used to flash drives) It shows as I/O port 0x0000, nothing else changes, everything else works as it always does.

Samsung TS-H943 MS28

The real advantage as we see it:

Compatibility: one device, not 1000's of different vendors.
Support: it works, if you have issues, it has been seen before.
Installation: Plug it in, ta dah, you're ready.
Interoperability: works on all current windows OS, signed drivers, no messing.
Portability: you can take it with you, it's tiny, smaller than a credit card.
This device has been a pleasure to work with. We couldn't have done it better ourselves.


How to Flash:

Hitachi GDR-3129L (Non -79 version)
The following tutorial will take you through the simple process of communicating with a Hitachi GDR-3120L (Non-79 version) DVD Drive using Jungle Flasher and an X360USB PRO adapter.

Requirements:
Xecuter X360USB Pro
DVD Drive Power source (the tutorial uses an Xecuter CK3 Pro)
Sata Cable (Supplied with X360USB Pro)
USB Cable (Supplied with X360USB Pro)
Latest version of Jungle Flasher
X360USB PRO Windows Drivers
Windows XP / Vista / 7 - 32bit or 64bit
There are several versions of Hitachi GDR-3120L and this guide covers all versions except the 79 model. To find out which version of drive you have simply look at the label and you will see "ROM VER XXXXXX"

Here is an example of the Hitachi GDR-3120L DVD label. As you can see we have highlighted the ROM version - in this case it is what we would call an "Hitachi 46" (The letters after the numbers do not matter). The other versions to look out for are 32, 40, 36, 46, 47, 58, 59 & 78. All these versions follow the exact same process so you only need to use this one tutorial. If you have the 79 ROM Version, click here for that tutorial.

Before you connect everything you first need to install the X360USB Pro Drivers. These are signed and work in Windows XP / Vista / 7 both 32bit and 64bit. Download the small driverpack and plug in the X360USB PRO USB Cable. When it asks for the drivers simple point to the files you saved and they will install with ease. You are now ready to hook everything else up.

It's very easy to hook up your Hitachi GDR-3120L to your PC. Simply connect the DVD power supply (in this case the Xecuter CK3 Pro) to the DVD drive (take care to make sure it is fitted the correct way - the wrong way can damage your drive) and to a molex power cable from your PC or from an external Molex power supply. Then connect the SATA cable from the DVD drive to the X360USB Pro, and then connect the USB cable from the X360USB Pro to a USB port on your Netbook/Notebook/Laptop/Desktop computer.

OK we are ready to begin:

1. Load up Jungle Flasher and...

(1) Select the MTK Flash 32 Tab
(2) Make sure the I/O Port is set to 0x000
(3) The X360USB Pro should be detected as Primary Master and the Firmware version will be displayed (in this case it is Ver 0.17)
(4) The Hitachi GDR-3120L should be detected and ready to work with

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

2. Now we are going to get the drive into ModeB so Windows can detect the drive and assign a drive letter. With older Hitachi drives you can usually do this by pressing the ModeB button on a CK3 power kit (Red LED), however we are going to show you how to do this using the Jungle Flasher software method.

(1) Select the Hitachi GDR3120 Tab in Jungle Flasher
(2) The correct drive version should be detected (in this case a 46)
(3) Click the Send Mode-B button

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

3. The next part is self explanatory. You will see a pop-up window with the following information. Simply hit eject on the CK3 and switch the CK3 Power switch to OFF with the tray fully ejected, then click OK.


[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

4. After a couple of seconds turn the CK3 Pro power switch ON and the tray should then close and will kick automatically into ModeB.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

5. Now for the clever part. Wait a few seconds and the Hitachi drive will be automatically assigned a drive letter in WIN API Mode ( in this example - K )
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

6. Everything from this point is a piece of cake. First we are going to a full dump of the drives firmware. We will assume at this stage that the drive is stock and has never been touched before. If you ever have a drive that has been flashed before with a different firmware you will always need to first return it to stock.

(1) Select Dump Drive
(2) Click the Read To Source button
(3) The entire firmware dumped in 1068ms (that's 1.068 Seconds )

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

7. Now you will be asked to save the firmware file. I just created a directory called FW on the C: drive and saved it there.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
8. Once the firmware is saved it will be loaded into Jungle Flasher's source buffer. You will automatically switch to the Firmware Tool tab.

(1) This is a full description of your firmware and will tell you if its stock or not.
(2) This is your full DVD key.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
9. Now you are ready to program your drive. The following part of the guide is solely to show 3rd party tools working with the X360USB PRO. You must own any game that you backup and we do not condone any kind of piracy and this is purely for educational purposes only. We do not provide any of the LT Plus firmware files and they are not provided or included with Jungle Flasher so do not ask for them.

(1) Select the Hitachi GDR3120 tab
(2) Select Flash LT-Plus
(3) Click the button Flash LT-Plus

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

10. Jungle Flasher first tests Flash Stability by writing to sector 9003F000

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
11. If flashing is stable and ready to rock you will see this pop-up. Simply click YES.

12. Success ! The Flashing process usually takes less than 3 seconds

Before we start to work with Jungle Flasher you need to burn the 79_Unlock CD which you can download from here. Use something like IMGBURN to burn the disc using a normal CD-R. Simply select write image file and load the .cue and burn. Thanks to C4 and Podger for this simple solution which stops you from having to buy expensive "passkey" type devices that require soldering and all sorts of unnecessary messing around.

OK we are ready to begin:

1. Load up Jungle Flasher and...

(1) Select the MTKFlash 32 Tab
(2) Make sure the I/O Port is set to 0x000
(3) The X360USB pro should be detected as Primary Master and the Firmware version will be displayed (in this case it is Ver 0.17)

Liteon DG-16D2S 74850C
The following tutorial will take you through the simple process of communicating with a Liteon DG-16D2S DVD Drive using Jungle Flasher and an X360USB PRO adapter.

Requirements:
Xecuter X360USB Pro
DVD Drive Power source (the tutorial uses an Xecuter CK3 Pro)
CK3 Probe (any version)
Sata Cable (Supplied with X360USB Pro)
USB Cable (Supplied with X360USB Pro)
Latest version of Jungle Flasher
X360USB PRO Windows Drivers
Windows XP / Vista / 7 - 32bit or 64bit
There are four versions of the Liteon DG-16D2S, 74850C, 83850C(V1), 83850C(V2) & 93450C. This guide covers the 74850C. To find out which version of Liteon drive you have simply look at the label and you will see "FW Ver.: 64X30C"

Here is an example of the Liteon DG-16D2S DVD label. As you can see we have highlighted the F/W version - in this case it is the 74850C (When referencing the drives the letter C is rarely mentioned as it doesn't have any relevance so don't worry if you simply see "74850".

[img] [/img]
Before you connect everything you first need to install the X360USB Pro Drivers and also if you are using the CK3 Pro you have to make sure you have those drivers installed also. These are signed and work in Windows XP / Vista / 7 both 32bit and 64bit. Download the small driverpack and plug in the X360USB PRO USB Cable. When it asks for the drivers simple point to the files you saved and they will install with ease. You are now ready to hook everything else up.

Working with a stock Liteon DG-16D2S 74850 is slightly trickier as you have to take the drive case apart and use a CK3 Probe to extract the DVD key. This only needs to be done once, and as soon as you have your key you can connect to the drive as normally as you would any other drive without taking it apart or using a CK3 Probe.

So we will split this guide into 2 parts. Part A deals with extracting the drive key using the CK3 Probe, and Part B will deal with using Jungle Flasher as per normal for reading / writing of the firmware. if you already have your drive key then you simply skip to Part B.

You will first need to take the DVD drive apart in order to get to its internal controller board. The point we are interested in is R707 (highlighted with red circle). This is right next to a voltage regulator so we recommend you cover with a piece of electrical tape because if you accidentally touch it you may damage your DVD Drive, CK3 Pro and/or your CK3 Probe.

Let's get everything hooked up. First, simply connect the DVD power supply (in this case the Xecuter CK3 Pro) to the DVD drive (take care to make sure it is fitted the correct way - the wrong way can damage your drive). Connect the molex power cable from your PC or from an external Molex power supply. Connect the SATA cable from the DVD drive to the X360USB Pro, and then connect the USB cable from the X360USB Pro to a USB port on your Netbook/Notebook/Laptop/Desktop computer and if you are using a CK3 Pro connect its USB cable to your computer also (if you have one of the newer CK3 Pro's then it will have a USB/COM switch - make sure it is switched to USB) All these connections are illustrated in the diagrams below.

OK we are ready to begin:

PART A - Extracting The DVD Key

1. Load up Jungle Flasher and...

(1) Select the DVDKey 32 Tab
(2) Make sure the I/O Port is set to 0x000
(3) The X360USB pro should be detected as Primary Master and the Firmware version will be displayed (in this case it is Ver 0.17)
(4) The Liteon DG-16D2S should be detected and ready to work with
(5) Make sure you have the correct COM port selected for the CK3 Pro (in this case it is COM 11)
(6) The CK3 Pro is detected and ready to extract the DVD key using the CK3 Probe
(7) Make sure the Dummy.bin only box is ticked. This file will hold all the extracted information (key, inquiry, identify & serial).

2. Now you are going to extract the DVD Key by using the CK3 Probe. You need to prepare your Liteon DVD Drive for DVD Key extraction:

Eject the Liteon tray (use the CK3 Pro eject switch)
Push the tray half way in

3. Click the DVDKey32 button (If you require a delay to give yourself more time - right click on the DKDKey 32 button for delay options of 5,10,15 & 20 seconds)

4. You will get a popup telling you to power your drive with half tray. Turn the CK3 Power OFF then ON and then click OK (IMPORTANT! - You will get Bad Serial Data error if you do not follow this step).

5. Now connect the CK3 Probe to R707. The CK3 Probe should light up with Blue (power) and green (serial) LED's and your key will now extract successfully !

6. You will be prompted to save the Dummy.bin - keep this file in a safe place as it holds all of your drives information including the DVD Key.

7. The following part of the guide is solely to show 3rd party tools working with the X360USB PRO. You must own any game that you backup and we do not condone any kind of piracy and this is purely for educational purposes only. We do not provide any of the LT Plus firmware files and they are not provided or included with Jungle Flasher so do not ask for them. Once the drives firmware has been read Jungle Flasher will ask you if you want to auto-load the Liteon iXtreme firmware. Click Yes.

8. Everything is now loaded into Jungle Flasher and you are ready to go. lets explain whats happening on the screen at the moment.

(1) The source buffer is loaded with the information extracted from your Liteon drive.
(2) This is your DVD key - always keep this safe !
(3) This is the iXtreme LT Plus firmware auto loaded into the target buffer

That's all the hard work done congrats on completing Part A of this tutorial !


PART B - Reading & Writing Firmware

9. Now you are ready to program your drive.

(1) Select the MTK Flash 32 tab
(2) Click the Lite-On Erase button

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
10. [You will get a pop-up warning you to be 100% sure that you have your DVD Key. If you are sure click YES

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
11. Another pop-up explaining that the drive will be erased and when it sends an intro to the drive to kick it into vendor mode. If you are ready click YES

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
12. You need to power cycle the drive (turn the CK3 Pro power switch OFF then ON) when the drive status displays as 0x90. Your drive will then switch to vendor mode ( 0x72 ) and you are ready to write data to the drive. To program the firmware click the Write button.

13. After writing, Jungle Flasher also reads and verifies every sector to make sure that the drive programmed correctly. Once everything is completed it will say "Write Verified OK!"

14. Success ! You can now click the Outro / ATA Reset button to take the drive out of vendor mode

More Drive Tutorials are still in the making. Will be updated when released ;)
