I had a feeling that was the case. Check this out, I always save original ROMs along the way and I have two 23 firmwares, one that you already have and one that may be different. Attached are the two because I can't remember which one is which.
I was finally able to dump this ROM properly. I don't think anyone has uploaded it yet. This was taken today from a brand new, Gigabtye GC-Titan Ridge Rev 2.0. It should be firmware 50, but the 50 version in the repository is different. I believe it may be from a Rev 1.0, I'm not sure.
I have probably at least 18 motherboards, but I haven't got that far. I'm simply trying to dump the original firmware from the Alpine to upload here. When I dump the original firmware, like I've always done, with the -r flag I would then verify it with the -v flag. Right after dumping it, it...
It didn't work, nothing shows up. So I dumped the firmware from another new Alpine and then tried to verify it. It does not verify. Do you know a way to dump the firmware so that it comes correct? See screenshot.
I dumped the firmware of a new Gigabtye GC-Alpine Ridge Rev 2.0 and it seems quite different from the latest patched one in the repository (I compared the two with Hex Fiend). Can someone take a look to see if this is the same or different from what's already posted? Also, the one posted is...
Major hassle indeed (many hours lost). I just ordered an expensive flashing kit, so hopefully that does it. I have a fairly large kit of capacitor's too, if that's all I need to use with my current flashers I would be happy to try it. Isn't that what these Macronix chips need (or maybe 1.8...
I have am having trouble dumping the ROM on the EX 4-TR. I have both a 3.3 & 5 volt flasher, but neither work. Does this need a capacitor? Is there a modified ROM already? And is there a SSDT for it?
Interesting- I find this only works with an Apple TB3 to TB2 adapter. The Startech adapter is...
Thanks. I tried it, but I think EX3 is borked since it doesn't show up in Windows with OEM firmware. I have a new one arriving within the next couple of hours. I am trying to solve this for a Mac Pro 5,1, but I have a few hacks here too and many of them are Asus motherboards with both types of...
That card may be toast. I just ordered another one. I also have an Asus EX 3-TR. This one is definitely working because I can see it in Device manager in Windows. With original firmware it shows up with no header cable attached booting to Windows in Mac Pro 5,1, but I when I plug a TB device...
Still nothing. Not sure how having no jumper is going to make it work.
I even removed the EFI, did a PRAM reset, reinstalled EFI with the GC-Alpine Ridge (even though it's an Asus EX3), blessed it, and rebooted. Nothing.
No, not using the same SSDT as the Gigabyte. I can try that though, but I didn't think that would work.
I'm putting all TB AIC's in slot 4.
Attached is the SSDT I'm using for a GB-Alpine Ridge.
Not sure in IOReg, since it's not activated by doing by doing the traditional pin jump. I can see the GC-Alpine/Titan in IOReg since they jump easily.
I was reading this post:

Thanks, I flashed it with AlpineRidgeEX3-NVM26-NATA.bin and tried the jumper and nothing shows up in System Report. Even without a proper SSDT, if the jumper was working then shouldn't at least show up in System Report?
I am familiar with OpenCore. I use it for the GC-Titan and GC-Alpine. There is a SSDT included with the download, SSDT-ASUS-TBEX3-RP21.aml. I'm assuming this was configured for a hack and not a genuine 5,1?
The bummer is what you said about the jumper not working.
I have an Asus ThunderboltEX 3.
With the available firmware, it says to use different versions based on whether it's a Rev B or C.
This says Rev 1.00.
I need some clarification. Since I saw a B up top, I flashed the B version. I want to test this with a Mac Pro 5,1 (not a hack, although I have...
