I'd recommend installing the dash while you've got the chance, before MS change it for the new one. You can install LT+ (not 1.1, Plus) any time.

Is there a place besides Digiex that hosts XBLA trials and X360 demos? I'm searching for Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet and Renegade Ops, witch aren't on Digiex. :/

I have a question. I just bought a new 360 during the sales. I wish to flash it and was wondering if my console gets banned will I lose all DLC too? Also about being banned, if I simply buy the games I wish to play online would I still risk being banned if I never play a burned game online?

My 360 isn't even on Metro dash yet, it still has LT1.1 on the LiteOn 78450c, I have my drive key but not any of the .bins, I also don't have the connectivity or flash kit. Okay.. with that out of the way; is there any way to flash to LT3.0 *today* using just my drive key retrieved from Jungleflasher logs/registry and with no other hardware except my PC?

Thanks!

yes. Thats not a problem at all.
For all I recall You can just put the key in jungleflasher manually.

So: Connect console to xbl and let it update. it will proboably just reflash Your drive to stock and install metro dash. Now just flash it to new firmware with jungleflasher and voila !
Tho you WILL need ihas burner to burn xgd3 lt3 games

Hmm, I kinda figured about the iHas burner. I was hoping to just truncate my games for now... but I foresee that being an issue sooner or later (not least of which is the inability to install) God fucking damn it. Oh well, better than nothing I guess. Thank you.

I can't find a single tutorial about reflashing my drive that doesn't specifically state that it needs the probe. Bah. Does anyone have a link to a complete tutorial for flashing LT1.x installed drive (well it won't even be that, MS will flash back to stock on Metro dash) with JUST the drive key and NO hardware?

The last guide I remember using was the one from Jungleflasher. It was very easy to navigate and provided in-depth info. Got my drive successfully update from LT 1.6 to LT+ 2.0. But aren't you going the RGH way now?

I only have polish tutorial..
If its flashed already i think You only need to connect drive to pc with sata cable and reflash, pulling drive power cable out and in the right moment.

maybe try looking on www.xbox360iso.com for tutoria. They have everything there

Like I said mate, the guide specifically states that connectivity/probe kits are required. It doesn't even have a section for anything without those :\ And no, sadly, I received some bad news and I won't be able to afford the glitch.

Yeah, but it *won't* be flashed already, will it? Once I install that Metro bullshit it's just going to flash my drive back to stock, which means the probe will be required again - no?

>_< yes, I know this already >_<

Sigh. It will flash my 78450c to 02510c, which means - if I'm not mistaken - to flash LT3.0 over that I will need the probe/kit right? Wrong? Urgh, forget it. I don't care. fuck it. thanks anyway.

Thank you KillerCrocker, I managed to get everything working with your help. You were righ; I didn't need the extra HW, I didn't even flash back to stock prior to updating - I just stuck the 14717 update on a USB stick (14719 is apparently difficult to Glitch and I want to keep my options open) and updated the machine. It flashed my drive to 0251C and then worked fine. Hooked the 360 to my PC, enabled IDE mode (drive wasn't detected in JF using AHCI) and then spoofed the "original 0251C" using my key and flashed with LT3.0

Works like a charm and only took a few mins. So thank you =)

Of course good luck doesn't come very often for me and it seems I won't be able to play Dragon's Dogma yet as according to many reports; the bloody game doesn't work truncated. Has to be burned using LTMax. Pfeh. My missus said she'll snag me an iHas drive though.. Very Happy The price-gouging on the B-model iHas drives is fucking ludicrous though -- the drive usually sold for between £14.99 and £16.99, depending where you shop, only NOW they're selling for £29.99 and £39.99. Not to mention the sadistic fucks that are selling them pre-flashed with LTMax --- for £100+ Fucking INSANE.

They can be done now but they have really poor boot times I'm afraid. Not good for everyday use.

To be honest, i'm not all that clued up on the firmware side of the 360 anymore, more jtag/RGH side.
Try posting in the 360 Flashing thread and you'll get a reply pretty quickly from someone Smile

Not sure if that's a valid question etc but I will ask anyway:

How to hard restart 360 to it's complete defaults/fresh out of box settings?
Is it enough that I just format the hdd? I have 120gb jasper elite and would like to kinda "refresh" it.
There is nothing really wrong with it but I just like to keep my devices fresh. Maybe that's because I got used to reinstalling my android phone every couple of months Razz

Also. I know that its 800msp to change nickname but can I change xbox live region/gamerID shit or whatever that stupid microsoft login system is -_-...
I have my killercrocker nickname created with email I don't use at all and on Polish region... and polish live just sucks

guise, also. I've found out that there is a possibility to enter code at console status screen in preferences (where console serial is) and then 360 asks if I want to restart to factory defaults.

So what is the difference between that factory reset and format+initial setup option?



Also. Can I move my gamertag to different email account ?

I honestly don't know what the difference is between factory default and initial setup, just that factory default requires the serial number of the current HDD attached (which you can find from console info page) -- and as far as I know, you can change the LiveID (email address) attached to the Gamertag by simply going to your account info settings.

I can't change id. it says that I can't move accounts older than 30 days or something like that

No no, you can't reset your machine without the HDD serial -- it will ask you when you try to reset. You can get the HDD serial from the console info page, just write it down to save hassle when you reset to factory. I'm still not sure what the difference is though.

Ok so here is my situation. I have a really old phat xbox 360 (non-HDMI) with a samsung drive.

A very long time ago (5 years?) I flashed the dvd drive and I until a few years ago used to play games on it frequantly by burning them.

Obviously there have been a whole host of updates since these days, and the last time I asked in this thread about 4 months ago it was still not realistically possible to RGH my console.

So, my next thinking is flashing the drive with a new firmware so I can play modern games.

a) Am I right? Is RGH still too slow to be usable on my drive?
b) If I go down the flash route - is it as easy as ever? Just take the drive out and use a tool to flash the firmware?
c) Since I stopped following the scene, I know that at times LTE makers were chaging for their firmwares - wtf? Can you get this shit for free still?
d) Anything else I should know? Should I just invest in a new xbox 360 slim with HDMI? Money is quite tight so I was hoping to do this myself!

Thanks so much Sabin - and anyone else that may respond Very Happy

How 'tight' is tight for money? You can pick up RGH'd Falcon console's, which boot instantly, for £100.
That come's with a power pack and usually a 20gb HDD.

I'm not as clued up in the whole firmware scene anymore, RGH/Jtag all the way really in my point of view. Game's, XBLA, DLC, Emulator's...
