Any idea if this would work on the 8163BB version? This is I guess the newer version (16x/52x) and is available everywhere here :-)
 
Thanks for any help!!

@:u_no_fr

Thanks! I found some contradicting info on the LG site, I could only find info on the B version and it said it was a 16x48x drive, through a link at one of the local shops I came at another part of the LG site for the BB, RBB versions and it said 16x/52x so that's where my confusion started  biggrin.gif

Thanks for your quick reply though, will pick one up tomorrow!

turho, its not the first time i see you asking stupid questions, sorry, but it seems that you just dont read anything. this tutorial will show you the cd advantage which trubb mod didnt.

@Blast

didnt you see my earlier post on the last page? i made it extra large! maybe it was no clear enough, so here once again, this time in red wink.gif:


btw, people with a original lg drive should be able to upgrade their drive too.

p.s. just dont wanna trash this topic with double posts

If only this worked on the 605F, I'm sure it would work on an 8050L if we found the VRCD point.  Honestly, if the same trick can be used on the new Sammys, I would have many more happy customers and other members.

Proof? Do a pot tweak, and it reads everything, if ti had a firmware lockout, it wouldn't read CDRs even with a pot tweak.  And just as a side note, could you take some pics of the 8050L and put them in your tut, or post them and I'll make a tutorial for getting the original drives to read CDR.  That is, if you can find VRCD on them too.

If Im not mistaken the lens doesnt detect CD-R media,thats why when you drop the pot it picks it up.

Oh don't just walk away, sure, we shot down the idea, but, it was still a good one, even if it wasn't fully correct.  But thats beside the point, Thomsons are the ones you should look into, those don't have a firmware lockout either, but if you could find an optimal value for them, say 200 ohms off the pot, to get them to read CDRs without burning them, that would be nice.  And if you get anyones XBox with a Sammy, take a look at those.
