| Error Code | Meaning | Solution |
|-------------|---------|----------|
| 0x1042 | Cannot find firmware file | Place your .BIN files in the FW folder. Re-select in parameter editor. |
| 0x1102 | Driver not loaded | Re-run InstallDriver.exe or boot with driver signing disabled. |
| 0x8024 | Write protect error | Your drive may have a physical switch. Also try “Preformat” mode (select “Preformat” instead of “Erase All”). |
| 0x3012 | NAND flash ID mismatch | The tool detected a different flash chip than expected. Use “Auto Detect” instead of manual flash selection. |
| 0x1000 | Device not ready | Unplug all other USB drives. Use a USB 2.0 port (not 3.0). Some PS2251 drives hate USB 3.0 for low-level access. |
| 0x4005 | Timeout | NAND has too many bad blocks. Run the tool again with “Erase All Blocks” + “Lower Format.” If it fails twice, the hardware is dead. | phison mpall v3720b ps2251 flashboot repack
