How to Flash A Lite-On DG-16D2S 83850C Drive S4P9

Posted on August 29, 2009 by Marty

This Post will outline the process and procedure undertaken in order to flash the new Lite-on DG-16D2S, these drives have been reported as to be coming from the repair centers after your xbox has been refurbished.

Get what you need for your 360 @

This method dosnt require the CK3 Probe/Spear Attachment tool..

Sentinelace over @ pothsprojects.com posted a good rundown on how you can de-crypt your lite-on key and flash your new firmware back to your lite-on drive…

Programs you’ll need
Jungle Flasher 1.65 – Website.
Openkey – Download OpenKey V2.0
L083info_32.exe – Rapidshare

Step 1

1. Connect the Lite-on to your pc like usual with the tray in half open mode.
2. Open JF 1.65 go to DVDKey 32 tab and click on the Create 83 Extract and click ok.
3. Once it tells you to “Move the tray to the full open position” with your hand pull the tray out fully then click ok.
4. Save the files.
5. Now in windows hit start run and type cmd.
6. Download openkey and save it to “c:\openkey“
7. Now in the command prompt type “cd c:\openkey“
8. Once inside the openkey directory type in “openkey.exe D608CG833907010F0.bin” then hit enter.
9. Your key should pop up in numbers and letters in groups of two write it down.

If you get this error, then you have a bad key and need to use method 2

METHOD 2

If you got the error above, then you simply need to use the L083info_32.exe program to get the proper bin file.
Check jungle flasher to see what port your SATA card is using for your drive.
Example of what you would type:

LO83info_32 0fd00

You will then be presented with a bin file of something like D609CG92690700FDF.bin

At this point,
go back to openkey and run it against your new bin file and you should get something like this:

At this point open jungle flasher back up.

You may want to test with a spare drive first to make sure this works..
to prevent bricking your drive!!

Load Ixtreme as target and choose manual spoof. Paste the key that openkey gave you in the top and then type in the barcode key into the second box followed by 3 spaces. In the drop down choose Lite-on 83850C and hit okay.

Go to the MTKflash tab and write your drive as usual. Test and confirm your spoofed drive works. Once confirmed you can dump that firmware and send a lite-on erase and flash like you normally would a lite-on.

I myself have used this method to personally test a few lite-on drives, each time using an old benq drive just to test the key on first prior to flashing the original lite-on. as always feedback is always welcome.
