Hi All,

Finally got everything set to flash my xbox 360 (lite on DG-16D2S drive) today, and read everything multiple times.. but it has turned out to be the flash of hell! Am very grateful for people to read this and hopefully someone can help me out :)

Firstly - when I took out the dvd drive, and then took off the underside cover, a metal piece fell out (I didnt see where it came from, but have been worrying since). Have attached pics to this post at the end... if anyone knows where this is meant to go, please let me know.

Back to the flash (i've got the log at the end of this) - everything seemed to be going well. Jungleflasher saw the drive, I got the key (about 8-9 times to be sure), along with inquiry etc. I then loaded the ixtreme 1.6-repack firmware, spoofed it, keys matched up and went to write it. That too seemed to work ok, it verified and everything seemed fine. The ONLY thing I didnt do was cycle the power just after it was writing (as I wasnt sure exactly when, and eventually switched off power maybe 1 min after flashing, then back on but not in 1 sec (manually pressing the power button switch with a pen). From memory, once the drive was in modeB the xbox green power light would keep flashing non-stop.

Closed the 360 back up and booted it - it wouldnt read a normal non-backup disc.. just kept saying "reading disc"... after ages it said "play dvd", but basically wasnt reading the disc.

So I opened it back up - again got it into jungle flasher etc. I clicked "erase lite-on firmware"... then, STUPIDLY, I went to switch the power off & back on (cycling it).

From that point on, the drive is no longer seen in jungle flash and the eject button doesnt work. I tried manually ejecting and putting back in half way, but jungleflasher still doesnt see it. Even just closing the drive, putting it back in the xbox 360 and switching it on - eject doesnt work, and no drive mechanisms move etc.

Seeing as I have the key etc, is there any way I can recover this? One thing I noted was the green xbox power light kept flashing fast (i.e. when I reopened the console and connected it back to the comp).

So it seems like the drive has no firmware on it now, but again I have the key. I also know what port its on (as it flashed the first time). Would someone please help save me here? !!!!

These are pics of the part (its only about 2.5 cm / 1 inch long) -

This is the log from when it appeared to flash fine:

As long as you have the key you are fine. You can't brick Lite-ONs. It just simply doesn't have any firmware on it. Go ahead and connect your Lite-ON back to the same SATA port. JF won't detect a drive because it has no firmware, but go ahead and click Lite-ON erase and power cycle when prompted. Once you have gained good flash chip properties, load your dummy bin in source and autospoof to ix 1.6. Then go back to MTKFlash and write.

The little metal piece that came off can be easily put back on. It goes on the edge right where the front of the DVD drive meets the chassis.

Thanks heaps for the reply, I will try this now. Just a few questions - do I need to manually eject the tray and then put it in half way before clicking erase lite on etc?

Also, this might sound stupid - how do you power cycle within 1 second? The only way I've been putting the 360 on and off (its powering the dvd drive) is pressing the little contact that the main power button presses with a pen.... it won't even pick up in a second. Should I just manually pull out the dvd power plug and put it back in?

Thanks again though :)

You will leave the tray shut when flashing the 360 drive.

Since you are using the 360 to power the dvd drive. Unplug the power plug to the drive and plug it back in. Be very careful though.

Ok thanks again... sorry hate to be annoying, but just to confirm:

So I'm just clicking 'erase lite-on' - OR, should I click open target firmware, choose ixtreme 1.6, manually spoof key and inquiry...... and THEN click erase lite on???

Thanks heaps :)

Either way doesn't matter. Go ahead and get your dummy bin in source and autospoof IX1.6 so it is ready to go. Then click Lite-ON erase and power cycle when prompted. Once you gain good flash chip properties, write the firmware.

If you open your target firmware, you should be given the option of spoofing to source. (Think Ive got that the right way round) Then Click erase, you get 2 boxed pop up, click OK on both then power your drive off and on as fast as possible. You should then be OK to click write

On a side note, I have found a couple of those metal things left over after opening a xbox. Not sure where the go but they worked fine without it.

Thanks to both -

I loaded my dummy.bin file and autospoofed to IX1.6 - then went to MTKFlash and pressed Erase Lite On.

Initially, I waited until it said 'Drive returned status 0x80' and then power cycled within 1 sec. It didn't seem to achieve much, still not able to see the drive info or flash chip properties.

I've tried this 5-6 more times, power cycling earlier (maybe 1 second after it says 'Sending liteon request to port 0x09E0, but unfortunately all to no avail. Should I just keep repeating this?

What about the 'erase' button under Flashing Tasks... should I use this?

Really appreciate the ppl helping me here, thanks heaps!

You will click Lite-ON erase. The first prompt is about the DVDkey. Click OK to continue. Second prompt is about returning a good flash chip status. Once you click OK on the second prompt, dots will start to go across the bottom of JF. Once you see the dots going across, that is when you need to pull the plug from the drive and plug it back in within one second.

UPDATE: Working perfectly now - I restarted the comp, and the first try of erase lite-on after this worked beautifully, and then write worked fine.

Originals are again working, and tomorrow I'll try a backup (guessing it will work though as I know iXtreme 1.6 is on there now).

Thanks to both of you for all the help..... great that others take the time! I thought I was a goner for a second (edit - for a few hours).

All the best,
Andrew

LOL true... what did you do - put it back or? I can't really see where it goes (though someone on here told me between the drive and chassis), and it doesn't look too important, so I just ignored it and put it together again.

Same here!

I had no idea what it went to so I just left it off.
