LT-Plus File failed MD5 Hash Check

[felix11]

I'm tyring to flash a Hitachi 79 that has been returned to stock firmware. When I click on 'Flash LT Plus' in JF I get a message 'LT-Plus file failed MD5 Hash Check' - and of course it does not write the fw to the drive.

At first, I left the files in the firmware folder as they were when I downloaded them (They are the latest fw pack and JF 1.90), but JF gave me a message saying it could not find the correct cfw file. I noticed in the pack the fw file in question was named 'LTPlus-79-4d20-2.0b.bin' So I figured that JF was getting confused because of th 'b' in the filename, so I remamed the file to 'LTPlus-79-4d20-2.0.bin, and that's when I get the failed md5 has check message.

Any ideas what to do? Ive googled like hell but can't find any answers.

Thanks in advance!

I'd re-download the fw pack and redump the drive. Put the corresponding file for your drive, in your case LTPlus-79-4d20-2.0b.bin and the stock fw in the fw folder let JF take control of the fw side

Thanks cunny - I have found the problem,

The version of JF I was using was 1.90(292) when there was a version 1.90(293) available which fixed a glitch whereby it failed to autoload the Hitachi ver 79 files suffixed with 'b' (the xdg3 fix versions).

Trying to rename the files to get them to autoload was what caused the error. With the newer version of JF they autoload fine and the flash is now complete.

Thanks for your help anyhow.
