I DOnt understand! i use windows :(

@KhaozOfTrouble18 You need to use RSD Lite version if you use Windows. You can't do this method in Windows. It needs to be 32bit Unix based system.

It tells me "no sbf_flash program" can u please help

[kev0475]

@OwnedByLeo14 It doesn't work for Mac. That is why. At least that is what I thought.

[OwnedByLeo14]

@kev0475 does mac run on linux?

[kev0475]

@OwnedByLeo14 It is unix based. That doesn't mean the sbf_flash binary works on all unix flavors. I can tell you sbf_flash doesn't really work in 64bit environments.

@kev0475 ahhh that would explain why it is a 64bit. thank you for all of your help

@kev0475 im so sorry im new to mac and i have no idea what chmod is im sort of a beginer on this stuff

[kev0475]

@OwnedByLeo14 I see. Did chmod script chmod sbf_flash or did you chmod the script? Are the file/folder structure correct. Worse case scenario is read the script by editing it, and do it one command at a time.
