Flashed my firmware and my Panasonic DMB-BD35 no longer reads any disks - Blu-ray Forum

SSEiYah · 12-04-2009, 05:00 AM

I used the firmware flash as recommended by the player, it played 2 movies, the 2nd was starting to skip and now it no longer reads any blu rays I insert, it just makes a clicking noise when it tries to spin it up.

dvds work fine. Its disappointing since I paid nearly $300 for it a year ago.

I have owned this player for 12 months and 6 days.

Any idea how to back flash the firmware on this player?

I have tried flashing with the 1.7 Firmware available from panasonic's ftp site but it refused to update.

Do I just need to buy one from ebay and sell this unit as a parts unit or something?

Well it suddenly came back to life...I'm not entirely sure. It turns out the version it flashed was 2.0 online and I just flashed 2.1 from a CD....

Good to hear you got it working again.

Also good to hear Panasonic did not stop supporting this player! Awesome, yo.
