I've read many threads with dislike of this burner. However, I have had no major issues with it and have just choose to upgrade the firmware. When I try to upgrade to GD30 the error message (below) indicates the model is not supported. Does anyone have some help or suggestions?

PHILIPS DVD+-RW DVD8631 Current firmware : 9D03
==> New firmware Version : GD30

Linear CheckSum : 15A1
Rotated CheckSum : BF05
Check Sum match !!
This Model is not support.
On Command Fail !!

Hi ;-)
Your model is what's known as oem. The f/w is known as retail.
In order for this to work, you have to 'technically' crossflash using Quikee's BQFlasher.

Thanks's zebadee! The link to download & instructions worked perfectly. Now upgraded to GD30. Hope burner continues to work fine. Otherwise, will upgrade to LiteOn. Thanks again.
