Quote: We tested the new Beta Dashboard 2.0.13141.0 and can confirm that all games that are NOT AP2.5 patched fail to boot to a black screen (Previous LT+ Non-AP2.5 symptoms) ? there is still a lot more testing on really old games (Pre Fifa 09) so we will keep you posted.
So (as suspected) AP2.5 will be activated across the board once the new dash is released, and also as suspected, LT+ has shown to still work by protecting the system from a flag and bypassing the AP2.5 check. (Naturally we expect the AP2.5 checks to get harder and deeper so this is just the beginning)
C4E has confirmed that there WILL be a public method to rip your own AP2.5 data from titles thanks to all the new AP2.5 Table information that was discovered a few weeks back.
C4E also looks forward to receiving the new Halo Reach XGD3 disc
A fun summer ahead for sure.
?..Also standby for a number of HUGE releases by C4E, Team Jungle & Team Xecuter very shortly??.

Would this mean that all old games would need to be repatched with a 2.5 patch like with what happened to black ops and reach?

One of the posters on another forum has stated that he reflashed his drive AFTER applying the new dash update and he can now boot up all his backups as before. Guess we'll need to wait and see.

In either case, it's still beats paying retail price.
"All drives should be updated to Lite Touch + (LT+) firmware if playing on XBOX live. Samsung drives and pre-78/79 Hitachi drives do not utilize AP 2.5. All other drives are considered to be detectable by Microsoft (YMMV). Make sure all rips are ABGX verified, contain SSv2, and patched AP2.5 (where needed). XGD3 must currently be burned on new drive with PC Burner Max firmware for 100% rip. All modded consoles can be potentially unsafe for use on XBOX live."
