I Made a Mistake, Trying to Flash My BenQ Drive.

[Snl]

Yesterday i was trying to flash my BenQ drive using the Baster 360. I did everything right, up until the part when it asked you do you want to read erase or write. Instead of pressing w for write i pressed e for erase I wasn't paying attention. So i turned off my PC and started over. Now i am getting this "error file backups\******* does not exist, when i try fben. And my Blaster 360 will not eject. How do i fix this problem?

If you have your hacked firmware, you can use dosflash to finish flashing the drive. It will recognize the flash chip even if it is erased. This works with Benq's, Samsungs and Lite-ons.

Any tutorial online?

Look in the video tutorials for the 360. The one you want is recovering a lite-on after a freeze up. Its the same process, but you don't have to use the l-o-eras part. Just do like the video except the l-o-eras and you should be fine after that.

Something else you can try in jungleflasher is to start your computer up, connect the drive and power it on. Then open jungleflasher and go to the MTKFlash 32 tab. Click the Intro/Device ID button and see if it will populate the flash chip properties section. If it does, go to the Firmtool 32 tab and click open target firmware and choose your hacked firmware. Then go back to the MTKFlash 32 tab and click write. It will complain about the firmware not being spoofed or something similar to that, just click yes to continue anyway and it should write it to the drive.

Either way should work. Dosflash works when jungleflasher won't though. In any case, either way is fine to try because nothing from nothing leaves nothing.
