Sounds like you did this,but this is how it works. You might have to update iprep 8 w/  ixdef file to latest( ixDef.1.51).  After you get that, go to My Computer, C:. Program Files, Iprep, Resources. Then replace ixdef w/ the ixdef.1.51.

Uninstall iprep and reboot pc. Reinstall iprep and update 1.51 def file. Do not drag your firmware files into the firmware folder.

Just open iprep, load your ixtreme 1.51 firmware to samsung, benq or lite on depending on what drive you have.

Choose your sata controller your using to plug drive into.

Choose your target device(mines my usb stick) make sure you choose the right one.

click format/make bootable

click batch files

start.

This is frustrating. I erased everything rebooted and redownloaded everything.
Extracted iprep and installed.
 with ixtreme i downloaded the rar to desktop. then open with you torrent. U torrent gives me options of what files to download and I picked  the samsing 1.51 and there was the filezip 1.51 downloaded those.

I moved the 2 files from u torrent to desktop.
 extracted ixdef 1.51
openid i prep resource and there was ixdef xml document only and tools. i draged  the ixdef 1.51 onto the ixdef xml document and it showed up next to it. Now I have ixdef document folder.. ixdef1.51 folder... tools folder in the iprep resources

Open Iprep click load samsung firmware... It opened a screen.. I chose the samsung rar  file from my desktop.. no go

I then right click samsung rar and extracted here with filezip.... a samsung bin showed up on my desk top

opened iprep tryed loading the samsung bin still nothing

you  dont have to put the ixdef 1.51 folder in there, remove that, just copy and paste whats inside that folder(ixdef xml for 1.51) and replace the ixdef document

Did you dump the original key from the sammy your gonna replace? Cause you can flash it to your new drive as well. Just use Iprep to do the whole thing.

dump key from old drive-if you can(dSam xxxxxxx xxxxx)

firmtool runs automatically making your ixtreme 1.51 file for you.

reboot-save backup of files on usb stick-just in case.

hook up drive w new pcb in it.

boot pc w/ usb into iprep

flash to new drive(fsam xxxxxxx xxxxx)

done

The drive sounds like it may be too dead(pcb) already. If you cant get the key off it you won't be able to get another drive working. Iprep should of worked but since the drive is having issue's it may not be able to read the key. I would sell it for parts and get a new arcade for $200 somewhere.

Also, the tsop will likely need to be removed and read with an external programmer. Look for someone on here who can do that for you.

Keep trying to get iprep or jf to recognize your drive. So you can dump the key.

Wow, this is getting more and more interesting. Sounds like you got the drive out of wack. Just forget about that for now.

PM me again. It didnt go through.

So you have a via card then. Try using another sata port on it. Boot to iprep again or use jf to see if you can get it recognized.

Can you send the file to me? I want to see if its vaild. Then I can make a 1.51 ixtreme file with it and send it back to you. Then flash with iprep. I sent my email address to you. I'm going out for dinner but I'll be on later.
Its prettty hard to brick sammy's so your get it right soon enough.

 You can also make the samcfw.bin file manually with firmtool.  But lets just make sure the file has a good key in it.

Read your pm and email. That key is not right. I need the origianl key. Should be on your usb stick in the backups folder. samofw.bin file

Thanks I just got the original. Looks like a good key. I inserted it in the 1.51 ixtreme for you and sent it back. Put it in your backup folder on usb stick and flash it.

I just found this app. Its called keychecker. I ran your original and hacked firmware through it. It says keys match, but it failed entry $4000 to $4400 is not equal in both files.

You should dump the key off the original pcb again and redo your hacked firmware in JF. Then check with this app. Maybe that's the problem.

http://www.360mods.net/index.php?name=News&catid=1

I also tried this with my original/hacked firmware and it passed. So there is something wrong with your key.
