I am on firmware 1.51..do you mean that once the new firmware comes out, the game that I have burned til now will no longer work? I was told yesterday that as long as the games are stealth patched and verified that the games will work, and now I am hearing this. I am confused..Just want to be sure when the new firmware does come out, my games will work, whats the point of upgrading if all my burned games will no longer work

yes - if you're patching and then you go online while playing the game you can most definitely expect a ban.

If you patch wave 4 to wave 3 and then patch this game with the wave 3 to wave 2. Is this possible? I have firmware 1.4 and I need first patch wave 4 to wave 3 and after that I need to patch wave 3 to wave 2. I hope someone can confirm this.

No firmware old or new is guaranteed to protect you from a ban. So your point is kinda moot.

If you don't patch the game and use the activation disc you are as safe from ban as possible.

Wave.4.Loader.for.iXtreme.1.6
Team HyperX Presents IXtreme 1.6 firmware for Benq, Samsung and Liteon drives
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IXtreme fw for Benq, Samsung and Liteon drives!
Features
--------
-Strict Wave 3 compliance! hybrid (modified disks) will not boot!
-Strict drive speed compliance - 12x only for game discs!
-Support for SS V2!
-Integrated 0800 for game dumping including SS v2!
-Full support for all known game exceptions! eg ddr etc!
-One shot boot mode! - allows a one off boot of gamedisc without -stealth/partition checks (will still use stealth), use activate.iso disk to activate each time!
-Support for easy drive key/version info cmd, same as liteon!
-Strict stealth/wave checking, one shot boot mode will boot wave(x)!
More Info
---------
Strict Wave 3 compliance means wave 3 games will only boot if they have correct PFI/DMI/SS and timestamp for wave 3
Strict drive speed compliance means games will only boot if drive is set for the initial speed of 12x, any modification of this make games fail to boot
SS v2 suports multiple timing samples for challenges type 5 and 7 , stroing them in the SS. This is a pre-requiste for SS v3 which has support for the so called AP2.5 check. Since
this has never been used or may never be used by MS we will adopt a wait and see approach and continue to monitor for its usage.
With drive in Windows mode (Tray half open on powerup) 0800 mode is activated allowing easy dumping of game disc including SS v2. In this mode the drive is also able to output drive key, fw version and drive type by using a simple custom inquiry command.
Game exceptions are integrated in the fw for games that do not comply with the strict wave checks but are legitimate. These are Dance Dance Revolution Universe, Stoked, Ping 17 disk, afro samurai
One shot boot mode allows you to boot a Wave X or non stealth game by using the activate.iso disk as a flag. Just insert the activate disc and the next disc inserted will boot without any strict checks. This will still utilise full stealth if available. As soon as that disc is booted the flag is cleared, and you will have to re-insert the activate disk again to enable one shot boot. As always use with caution.

Just to be straight, I got Wave.4.Loader.for.iXtreme.1.6 and there is an activate.iso in there, do I just burn that and run that on my 360 then play a game?
What about patching the game iso? Do I use the Wave3 tool and patch the Wave4 iso?
My firmware is 1.6 and it's a BenQ drive.
I like bum.

If i have a benq 1.51 is there anything i can do to play new GTA. when i load up the game it just says Play DVD and when i play it the tv goes black. anyone tried patching from wave 4 to wave 3 on gta? I guess the activator only works if you have 1.6 so that's not an option.
Where can i get the wave 4 > 3 patch if it works?
