Attention!

To start the firmware of the Xbox 360, we need to determine what kind of drive we have.
Specifically for this, below I have posted the picture with different drives. Look at the picture and looking for our.

(To enlarge the picture click on it! Or click here .)



If for some reason you can't open the tray, it is possible to determine the actuator through the small hole in the drive.
First remove the front panel of the console.



Now look at the hole marked in the figure.



If you see a red wire, this Samsung.
If you see a white wire, then this Benq.
If you see a yellow wire, then it is a LiteOn.
If there are no visible wires and plug, then this Hitachi.




After found sure of the model, go to the below written instructions.
Opening that we need and act.

Information about the firmware without the transceiver:
1. Download the required programs: jungle flasher 1.65 beta
Freekey - http://www.boxxdr.com/FreeKey.rar, lo83 - http://www.boxxdr.com/lo83.zip
2. Click start - run, cmd.
3. Lo83info-32.exe for convenience, rename and copy to folder, written in the command line(so as not to bother half hour).
4. Jungle flasher will see on what port is your drive. (Assuming that it is already connected)
5. At the prompt, type the program name space and the port number of the drive. For example, 83.exe BD00
6. Follow the instructions, ie:
6.1 Put the drive in half tray position and then power cycle it means that it is necessary to turn on the console, press the button to open the drive, pull the power from the drive, push half (to short risks from below which is next to long), insert the power and switch on/off the console. Then press any key.
6.2 Now open the tray - open the tray button. And press any key
7. You will receive a file with your key, encoding. To decrypt, use freekey.
8.after all this, you have the drive key, the firmware of this drive is no different from the firmware of the ordinary Layton, use the FAQ on the firmware lite on dg 16d2s. Remember to download the latest ixtreme for your drive. It differs from the usual. At the moment the program does not want to work with the old version of Layton, maybe because of the built-in identification, because it works with the old drive in which the firmware from the new! Probably soon will crack. But while this factor only for the new revision of Layton.

Always use a spare drive to check the key

140F0F1011B5223D79587717FFD9EC3A - WRONG KEY!
LIKELY NOT WORK CORRECTLY WITH THE TRAY!

E8676DB76042D25B18CFF6DD94A8A936 - WRONG KEY!
MOST LIKELY LITE-ON'S REVISE 2.1!

If you don't want to deal with the firmware:
please call 89859931693 or ICQ 251691189 or order by Email [email protected]
Section 1. Training.
1) make Sure that you have COM


and SATA ports


2) make Sure you have a Lite On (in the hole under the tray the yellow wire sticking out)

3) Determine the model of your Lite on (drive written Type or 83850с FW 74850C)
4) If you 83850с or drive is already flashed to iXtreme 1.5 then you need neither the transceiver nor the COM port

6) Run PortIO32.exe if still have error, install manually

Installing manually in XP:



in Vista and 7:



If you have a RAID controller on a VIA, then you need to uninstall its driver C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\viamraid.sys to avoid computer freezes!!!
The preparation is completed.

Section 2. Transceiver.

You can assemble it yourself, and can be ordered here
There are two types of transceiver:

1) the oldest and Most complex (but reliable) transceiver on the chip MAX232 (MAX3232)


2) New and simple for Assembly transceiver at the transistor. Someone found out that the chip uses only transistor and came up with another scheme. These transceivers come in two types - with USB and without USB. The first easy to build, don't require power from USB and more compact.

9)When booted into DOS write command DosFlash r (port #) 1 a0 1 4 a:\orig.bin 0 (where # is the number of our port, the r - command of read, a:\origin.bin - the name and path of the original firmware)
10)Next message appears, press Y(Yes) and press Enter
11)turn on Xbox 360(in order to make it more convenient, you can take the front panel that we removed during disassembly and leaned against it to push the button).
Wait 5 seconds, it would take a reading, then turn off the Xbox 360.
12)On through the BIOS, turn on all SATA and IDE drives are turned off and loaded in Windows XP

The third method:

0) Parse The H360.
1) Download dosflash 1.4 b and C4EVA_iXTRM-Benq V1.1
2) since I have not worked out a way to sew from under Windows, I had to create a boot floppy. After creation throws at her files from the dosflash16 folder (this folder is in the program dosflash 1.4 b)

Went to the reading process where alternately the firmware was considered with 4 banks of consoles and each was given a - OK. After H360 turn off and restart the PC, again go to BIOS and select boot from hard drive.
11) load Windows and check whether the floppy disk file our for. orig.bin . He was there and we copied to the folder program C4EVA_iXTRM-Benq V1.1 ( and more specifically in the folder 8x as this speed is considered optimal noise\the read speed of discs). Startup in this folder file the Make iXtreme firmware.cmd. In the appeared dosogne press enter. The program had altered the original file for. (orig.bin) in the modified file benq-ix.bin.
12) This file (benq-ix.bin) copied to a floppy disk.

Further, Wrote dosflash, press Y and Enter, switch off H360 for 2 seconds and turn on again, select again the device ...blah blah blah 6038 benq. Then vyberaem write W (write modified please) and enter the name benq-ix.bin. Went process during which the original ask was removed from H360 and instead it was written I modified (benq-ix.bin).

Is it possible to flash the console. How to do it? What prog and how do I know what drive is in the box. Release date 16-09-2010 year

Traditionally, this topic is filled with spam, and the authorities not even trying to solve anything.

If you sew your Boxing, you will not regret it?

If hands are not from ж0пы - no.

Kramer
I mean if you sew you're not going to be able sooner or later to play multiplayer games etc
Will lose access to all online services.
Worth it?

Demoon914_PayL
Worth it?
It is up to you.

Don't forget that the opportunity to play multiplayer more to pay.

Travis Touchdown [1st of UAA]
I know that.

Demoon914_PayL
Now, I'm sitting in live - 0 problems. (LT3.0)

IMPORTANT: in no case do not run the game before release with the included live, if we live itching to play - pull out the net cable from the console and stuck it back before the game.

I was just thinking that I have one figure was not live, so if it was banned, in fact would not have lost. 1K per year - not money!

Kramer
Thanks for the tips.

and if you buy a flashed drive and replace the games will go or what it should be

dima manohin
If the drive is not original, it is likely that when you start some games will fail and the console will not run.
In this case, you will have to buy a new drive and re-flash.

In General, the friend has an x-360 slimka that never connects to the Internet. If we prohlem, as I understand it, the ban will not connect to the network?

If you flash to LT 3 the ban will not be even after connecting to the network.
Of course, if the correct use of will.
