Hello, I have a Hitachi GDR-3120L v0046DG and I was wondering how to spoof it as a samsung with iXtreme. In other words, I want to know how to replace my flashed Hitachi with a samsung and flash the samsung. Can I spoof the drive and flash it at the same time or do I have to do it seperately.
If someone has directions please make them easy step by step instructions. Of if anyone has a link to a tutorial on how to do this I would be very thankful.

Just open up the iXtreme firmware in Firmware Toolbox 4.8, apply your key if you haven't already, go to tools and click spoof firmware. A list of drives will be displayed and choose either the 25 or 28, what ever one you have. Since you have a Hitachi, you probably should restore to original Hitachi firmware before flashing iXtreme to it. Once you have applied the spoof, it will show *** FIRMWARE SPOOFED AS Samsung-TSH943A-ms25/28*** right below the firmware file in Firmware Toolbox. Hope that helps.
EDIT: Sorry I misread your question. If you are wanting to replace your Hitachi with a Samsung. You will need to spoof the Samsung firmware as a Hitachi 46. Those steps will work, just spoof the samsung firmware as Hitachi 46.
Hi leerage, i am about to do exactly this when my new motherboard comes but how do i know which hitachi ixtreme to use, there are 3 different hacked firmwares? I do know the drive that was in it was a sammy ms28, thanks
Thanks for getting back to me mate, i have opened my firmware in jf and it says my key@ 4c30 but there isnt a firmware named that, do you know which one i should use from that? Thanks again:)
Sorry for double post but heres a screen shot of my orig firmware in jf, i have restored drive so this is how is!!
EDIT:
Its ok mate i found the firmware for my 78 drive, turns out there are 4 different ones for 78's, just didnt see it, i am now waiting for this guy i have bought the motherboard off to send me the firmware by email, its from a sammy drive so i gotta spoof my hitachi, never done this before so am a bit nervous, lol, any tips?
I have the exact (opposite) question.
I have an xbox 360 with a stock samsung ms25 drive.
Now I got a Hitachi 79 drive which I want to put in my 360.
I found out ater googling for almost an hour I have to spoof the thing into a samsung (lucky I have my original firmware AND key saved on my computer)
So what I must do is (if I understood it like it is)
1> Load up my original firmware (samsung)
2> Click no when it asks if I want to load the firmware.
3> load up the LT+ firmware of the hitachi drive and spoof it into a samsung with my key
next question is...will I be able to play ap25 games still (Fable 3 and NFS)
[EDIT] I am not playing online with the 360 [/EDIT]
I have a question ! I have spoofed my Hitachi drive as my old Samsung M28. Problem is, I want to flash with a new firmware after the new update. Do I use Hitachi or Samsung firmware ? Will the xbox update revert me back to the original samsung or hitachi fw (and will i need to re-spoof) ? sorry for the tons of questions, very confused person here :/
