Maximus: Rollback on XGD3 Burner Support, DG16D5 Update, Kamikaze Template

October 30th, 2011, 18:42 Posted By: wraggster

We found a problem on the current Lizard-TBX Burner flashing method, we overlooked the EEPROM update on the drives, we will review in depth the whole Burner flashing code and we might end up releasing Custom Fileset for them.
Meanwhile we recommend use the Includes PC utilities to flash your burners firmware.

We have issued gecko 1.27 and TBX 1.46 with write options removed on the drives to prevent problems to users

On another topic, Some good findings have been done on DG16D5S drives but in order to continue we need more retail units, if you have one DG-16D5S drive please contact us by email: carranzafp@hotmail.com

Also we have officially released the Winbond Kamikaze Template, we have done lots of testing and changes to find the most accurate location. Please note that on some boards the exact location can still be offset. We encourage you to take your time, after marking the spot if you don’t find unlocked after few drilling check the coordinates manually. Please check below pictures to see how precise is the template is.

We are including a handle tool with 1mm drill bit so you can mark the spot and even (if you have the patience for slow unlock use it to continue till unlock). This template has given good results using the IRON method and drill method.

The suggested method of use is:
a) Align the template with plastic posts on the drive
b) With the handle tool drill thru the marking hole to mark it on the IC
c) Remove the template and then you have the option to manually drilling till unlock or use Dremmel © or Iron.
d) If after some drilling it does not unlock check location manually to ensure there is no too much offset

** Please remember its recommended use a resistor tied to 3.3v if you using Dremmel or handle tool

Here you have one Tutorial links made by sQuallen using Handle tool till Unlock:

Use common sense, this tool is just a guide, we take no responsibility for what you do with it. We have tested and its as precise as it can be
