Adebisi, I checked the links and they say it reads the disk for 5 minutes for them, but I played the hole first chapter with the disk spinning all the time - fat lite-on.

I have a question. When you spoof the key into LT2.0 doesnt jf automatically prepare that spoof to be written on the console ? Whats the point in saving the bin file? And how do you load that saved bin file into the buffer ?

anyone ?


Are you going from Stock?

I'm not sure about the specifics of you're actual question but the method I always follow is shown below. I used it on 2 xboxes (liteons) yesterday...
0) We're going from a stock, latest firmware liteon drive
1) Load official FW into the source entry in JF. All the DVDkey will contain F's
2) Load the required iXtreme into target FW.
3) Click Spoof to target (or words to that effect) and all the F's will now appear in the target.
4) Now click 'Manual Spoof' and enter in the correct key. Leave the drive options alone on the screen.
5) The correct key should now be in the target FW box.
6) Go into vendor mode and away we go.

There might be an easier way of doing it, but that works for me. Remember to send the outro after flashing (the bit I always forget)

Wow nevermind (but thanks).. the motherfucker that flashed my console gaved me the wrong dvdkey and i just spend 2 days of my life trying to mod the motherfucker while cursing at it. Now i got the real key and.. duh.. it worked from the first try

I don't know why in every tutorial they say to leave the layer break at 2133520. What's the point if imgburn defaults in 2086912 anyway (or not in my case). I fucked up one DL because it didn't auto switch to 2086912, the next burn I've manually set it in .dvd file and everything is working fine.

I will need your help guys 'cause I am facing some issues and I run out of ideas.
I have one phat xbox with a liteon drive. I restore the firmware to stock version then updated (via usb) my xbox to the latest dash version and finally flashed it with LT 2.0

I didn't get any errors like E66 or something similar. I also tried a couple of my old backups and it run without any problems. so far so good Smile

But now i am facing problems with gears 3 rrod version. I already burn it twice (verbatim DVD+R DL using imgburn) but I am not able to run it. my xbox recognizes the game but when I try to run it i get a black screen.
I tried to install it to my hard drive but i get and disk read error at 44%.
I burn it following the "how to burn xgd3 games" pdf guide.

Any ideas? Is it possible that somehow i have the wrong firmware on my drive? some version previous to 2.0? I am asking this cause i read somewhere some guy saying that he had a similar problem and then he realized that he had version 1.1 instead of 2.0.
I thought without the proper firmware the xbox wouldn't be able to recognize xgd3 games.
I already closed my xbox and I really would like to avoid to open it again just to confirm if i really have the latest firmware.

Clear the HDD cache just incase.
Also, does it even give you the option to install to HDD? If so, whats the result of that.

Sounds like a bad burn imo (did you burn from the iso or .dvd file, if iso, use abgx360 to create a dvd file and burn off that) if it's running older backups correctly.

Ok im posting again the exact steps that i did
1.Load the dummy.bin as source, load LTPlus-025-v2.0.bin as target, spoof
2.Lite-On Erase followed by plugging the power cable off and back on -> status was 0x72
3.Write
4.Outro
5.Shutdown PC, shutdown xbox, reconnect cables, power xbox back on, test => "Play DVD" on every backup or original game that i've tried
Did i skip anything?


bad key ...
wow, too late Wink , I did not see your reply.
a friend of mine got the same issue but he never recovered the key

I cleared HDD cache but no luck.
I get the option to install it to my harddrive. But it stops at 44% complaining about some error reading from the dvd. I burn it from the .dvd I checked the Layer break and it seemed to be ok.
Yesterday I tried one third time burning it with clonecd ... but I still no able to play it.

Well, it looks like I will have to recheck somethings Sad :
- open again my xbox and check exactly which firmware do I have on my liteon (unless someone confirm me that without LT-2.0 the drive is not able to recognize a xgd3 backup at all)
- get another gears 3 backup files and burn it again
- check if my burner is still ok (never got any issues with it but we never know)

Do any other backups run (i.e. None XGD3)? If they do, then it definitely sounds like a layer break issue like Acida said.
I'm hearing a lot of stories that ultimately the .dvd files have the wrong layer break in them.
I've got as far as burning Driver SF but I haven't tested it nor any other XGD3 game. I'm using the other layer break (not 2086912) so will see what happens.

I tested a couple of non xgd3 backups and it worked. I will have to do just like acida told me ... change the layer break in .dvd and burn it with clonecd.

Thanks for the help grimmy Wink I will let you know how was it

I agree but its the only drive I have and have ever had for my 360 and I would rather not have to buy a new one if I can avoid it Smile

*waits for the Hitachi firmware*

Whats so bad about Hitachi's ? I have only ever owned one 360 and only ever flashed it once. Was a pain to learn the process but it went ok eventually. I was under the impression from reading the Jungleflasher tutorial that Hitachi's were the easiest to flash.

at one point Hitachi wasn't even supported by c4eva and garyopa had to release updates for it lol I don't think you'll be seeing LT 2.0 for a bit Sad

having said that, maybe someone will take over Hitachi fw like before?

Does spoofing drives still work on 13599? If so, I recommend updating to 13599, then spoofing your Hitachi drives as LiteOn with LT2.0

As I said I have only flashed it once,still learning.

So essentially I can spoof the drive to any 'model' and flash it with Liteon/other firmware? Seems a bit too easy, why bother having different firmwares at all?
