Help With Samsung Ms25
« on: February 16, 2008, 01:08:00 PM »

I have got a samsung drive that is not reading anything after my restore , i thought it was bricked but many people have told me it's not so long as it is is still reading/flashing and i have the correct dvrive key.

I have been trying to fix it for a few days now and i just can't do it, can someone construct the correct files to flash or restore my drive if i give them the drive key?


The drive key is :  3B4D86962ADE36FE9444515E2D168C7B

The drive is a samsung ms25 , it is currently flashed with iXtreme 1.4 , should i try a restore first even though that does'nt really do anything?

Please can someone help me

Ive done a restore using iprep as you described , still it did'nt read games so then i flashed it with iXtreme 12x 1.4 and again did'nt read games so i restored it and that's where i am now.

It cant be the laser because i just replaced it but ill try a different one just to rule it out.
