I am using n2edit.

I popped this rev105 card. I then read and saved the image. Next thing was I opened my .COR file by renaming the extension to .bn102. Opened card image and selected st19.bn102. Then I wrote that image to the card and instead of it setting the rev back to 103, it set it to 10C and now when I tried to apply my blocker it asks for password and I cannot write to it anymore.

The thing I think I forgot to do was clean codespace before writing the bin. I took another unlocked card and performed the same steps, but cleaned it before writing and that card is back to rev103 and I can apply my blocker.

What do I need to do to get back in? Do I need to use RM1C, omniunlocker, or can I somehow read the image in Romexplorer and see if there is a password?

Thanks for all the help.

you will have to glitch back into your card with RM or you can run it blockerless since you wroe your cor file to it. if your ppvs are wide open you should run fine blockerless

I appreciate the help retired guy, thanks. Was my mistake not cleaning codespace before writing the image?

Thanks again.

Always clean the codespace when switching BINs. You never know when leftover code will lock you out.

either glitch back into it with RM or run it blockerless until it gets looped or you have to update tiers

Thanks all for your help. I will try to glitch in with RM using my blue nexus. I haven't had any success with 10C's, I looped all 4 that I have tried. Maybe I will get lucky and this one will be different!!

Thanks

why not use blockerless, it dont make sense to chance it getting looped when it is set to go. wait until you have to change your tiers or ppv strings before glitching. you have a working card and watching tv with it makes more sense than trying to get back in and looping it and never get to use it. i ran blockerless the same way and when the ppv values changed i looped 2 and got ack in 2, so i would put it in rd and watch tv

glad you think the same way. FYI, i was running blockerless fine for a few months and the only reason i had to stop was the new ppv ranges and like i said i looped half of them getting back into them so its not worth the chance. whats the old saying "if it aint broke, dont fix it"
