What you write about the result of
badblocks -fsvnb512 /dev/sdh 1287409599 1287409400
is the expected behavior. -n means that it will _not_ write sectors that
it cannot read (because that would remove the possibility that data from
these sectors could be recovered by more tries).
As I wrote, you have to use the -w option instead of -n, and use x and y
of 1287409527 1287409520
