got it in vendor. used jf to unlock. used ur switch. amazing played music....now stuck lol

Edit:

No Longer Stuck. The Switch is the way to Go. Jump into Vendor Mode with any Probe. Use the switch/Unlock Button. Hear the Tune. Restart Drive half way trick. Restart JF. Slim Unlock. Flashed as usual. Lock it back up and go. AMAZING!

little note to add dont go mad with the hot glue when sticking the switch in, it can make its way inside the switch mechanism and jam the whole lot up!!

Im stuck too, i hope the drive is not bricked i cant get it to function as a normal drive again, and im still getting the failed verification when i flash it, which is causing the drive not to perform as normal once it has blank firmware.
