jaclaz Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 BUT! now, I opened the img, opened the zip and renamed the flash.bat to flash.txt, changed the model and saved, tried to close the zip but I get an error: "No such interface supported" and then "Cannot update file "ES2SN06C.ZIP""I tried to unpack everything and build the img myself but neither magiciso, poweriso nor ultraiso managed to create the img correctly.Forget about *any* .iso or .img modifying tool such as poweriso or ultraiso.7-zip has (obviously) limited capacity in editing anything but .zip or .7z (and a few other types) archives. it won't do anything to .img's and .iso's (or to files contaqined in them).Get IMDISK:http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html/http://reboot.pro/forum/59/use 7-zip to EXTRACT the Bootable_1.44M.img to a directory on your disk.mount the "on disk" Bootable_1.44M.img to drive A: or B: through IMDISKdo the whatever changes you want to dounmount the IMDISK driveIf you want to recreate the .iso, get IMGBURN:http://www.imgburn.com/and make it following this guide:http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=1779jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheloo Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) OK, my drive is:Barracuda ES.2, 500GBST3500320NSPN:9CA154-783HP Model: GB0500C8046Firmware: HPG1 now is having HPG61. I followed the steps that johnmar presented in his post here execept that my drive did not showed the message LED: 000000CC... every few seconds it just showed it once and after that the terminal locked and I can't write anything in it.2. After LED: 000000CC... message I had to short all 4 points usig tweezers (2 by 2 not all 4 together) from the picture that johnmar posted (the two ones surrounded with red and the two ones surrounded with green)3. Keep that 4 pins shorted for 30 seconds or more, hard drive motor stopped and the terminal was unlocked and responded to CTRL+Z command4. Followed standard instructions that johnmar posted5. Checked the drive to see if everithing is OK, connected to the computer in normal way and made a backup with everything from it6. Downloaded the file that jaclaz recomended from here, tried a lot of other possibilities from HP but nothing worked because I did not had the proper hardware to run or even to install them.7. Downloaded HP USB Key Utility version 1.7 from here, I have tried also version 1.1 if i remember correctly but it did'nt worked since I'm on Windows 7.8. I have set the controller to emulate IDE in my motherboard BIOS9. Booted from the USB stick, updated the hard drive firmware to HPG6 without problems.If anyone needs more support I'll try to answer as soon as I can.
