| Error Code | Meaning | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 0x01 – Download ISP Fail | Wrong tool version or bad NAND. | Verify NAND chip ID matches v7 database. Try lowering DDR frequency to 167MHz. | | 0x0F – Compare Fail | Bad blocks grew during writing. | Increase the "Time to R/W Retry" to 500ms. | | 0x20 – Bad Block too many | The NAND has physically died. | No solution. The drive is e-waste. | | Ready Drive (no port) | Drive stuck in factory mode. | You must short ROM pins after opening the tool, not before. | | Cannot Read Capacity | Bridge chip incompatibility. | Swap to a JMS578 adapter. ASM1153E often fails with 2259XT. |
