1- get firmware from hitachi drive, get the key from it. You can use firmware toolbox 4.8(save it for the future!) Don't toss it. trust me.
2- get ix15, ix14 or whatever firmware and inject the key via firmware toolbox 4.8
3. Flash it onto your sammy drive.
Samsung drives have caused some problems for some people. You might try to use Frosty's 360 utility disc.

so your basically telling me all i need from the hitachi is the key and thats it.. so i take the key and inject it into samsung ix1.5 firmware and flash my samsung with that? I think thats what i did before and i bricked my other ms25..

Use JungleFlasher. Load the original Hitachi firmware as source, load ix for samsung as target, click spoof source to target and voila. Very straight forward. You can then flash with junleflasher or save the target firmware and flash with the tool of your choice.

sammys are very hard to brick... you may have done something wrong, but most likely you can recover the sammy drive

wow thanks i didn't think it was that easy!! the only way i could access the drive was with iprep008 to flash.. because of bad firmware it would freeze up in windows.. so i renamed my spoofed firmware samcfw.bin and i was good to go.. thanks guys your help and the simple answer lebthug!
