Puma wrote: what 1.08 zip file are you refering too? as all the links are official and don't come with a kernel file. On your point, DVRFlash is not file name specific, so you can use whatever name you want. but normally keeping it simple is better. Only the crossflash files in that section can be used with that particular drive. In case you have simply downloaded a kernel and renamed it. it will brick the drive. I take it also you mean 117, not 107 in your postings?
Thanks for your help. Here is the one I downloaded: DVR-217L_108 Firmware S17J_1.08 from http://files.rpc1.org/index.php?act=category&id=1806

Let´s recap. My drive is a 217 D, came with 1.06 firmware. About a year ago I downloaded 1.07 firmware for a 217 L model and patched S0416431.107 with MSCE and got S0416431_speedpatched.107 and applied DVRFlash -ff G: S0416430.107 S0416431_speedpatched.107 Everything worked fine. So my drive has been crossflashed to a 217L, right? Now I downloaded 217L firmware 1.08 from: http://files.rpc1.org/index.php?act=category&id=1806which includes two files: S0015430.108 and S0015431.108Applied MSCE to S0015431.108 and got S0015431_speedpatched.108 So I now just need to do DVRFlash -ff G: S0015431_speedpatched.108 Right?

Ok, thanks.
Yes my drive is now a 217L after I crossflashed it from the original 217D
So I will perform
DVRFlash G: S0015431_speedpatched.108
and report back.
Thanks again

Thanks again you still need -f in the command line, just not -ff

Thanks
It says drive is in normal mode, so I guess I need to do
DVRFlash -ff G: S0015430.108 S0015431_speedpatched.108?

DVRFlash -ff G: S0015430.108 S0015431_speedpatched.108? if its 217L it should flash without the -ff command. if it needs it, then it isn't. put there is no harm to do that, if you want too. normal mode is correct, its when it says in kernel mode, you worry. Was that message displayed when you tried to flash with -f command?

Yes, the message "drive is in normal mode" was displayed when I tried to do
DVRFlash -f G: S0015431_speedpatched.108 not the same then as the drive id and firmware you. It's looking for the kernel file to flash. use the kernel and -ff if you require the flash to go through. The numbering of pioneer drives and abbreviations got very complicated with 116-118 drives.

If you have doubts, play same as chef suggested. I know it was tested and I used it many times, including a year ago when I converted this 217D into a 217L. I don´t understand what chef´s suggestion was, sorry. And thanks again for your help.

And thanks again for your help. don't do it. just stick with what you have. or try seeing if you can patch an official release. we can only advise. its the user who has to flash it.
