Well today I was using jungleflasher to flash my friends Toshiba SamsungH943 everything worked out for the most part, hooked it up to the tv to check and see if it booted the games and noticed that it did not, just displayed the XBOX 360 with the white background and it had play dvd instead of play game. Tried a normal game same thing. Hooked the drive back up to the computer to see what happened, Jf will recognize the drive and im able to send Sammy unlock but when I send that command the drive sounds like its spinning real fast and when I click Device ID on Jf it gives me MTK VENDOR INTRO FAILED. What can i do about this? I just flashed another kids drive exact same thing yesterday and his works fine. Any help with this ?? thanks

just try it again.... what I do to get a sammy recognized is just hook it up and power it up, open JF. press device intro, when the popup comes up I shut the power to the drive off, then click yes, wait for a couple ..... on the screen then power the drive, then you should see the flash chip properties etc,

then reflash it.

What would explain why the drive is spinning so fast for no apparent reason when its booted up though any idea?

if the firmware wasn't flash completely there is no saying what the drive will do.

?1- Does the xbox boot to the dashboard or e74 page?
?2- You are checking with games burnt on Dual Layer DVD's, right?

I know those questions are juvenile but I want to make sure you got the basics down before proceeding.
The screen with the xbox logo and "WHITE" background was usually displayed when a non-stealth game was inserted in a 1.5 or earlier drive.
