Thanks for verifying my steps.

Is there a SATA add-on PCI card that is known to work?

I have an August 2009 Lite-On 83850c.
Unable to dump the key is there anyway around this yet?

yet people still don't get it. My opinion, if don't have a VIA chipset, don't waste your freaking time. I know $15 is pretty expensive.

hey guys, I was wondering whether it`s possible to flash the x-360 via a home network, I have the software for for all three drives, on my pc(still not sure which one I have), and my network up and running through a hub...is there anyway, without removing my drive.

hey guys, new here. i gotta problem. i'm trying to flash my lite-on drive with my sony laptop. i've installed all the drivers correctly and am using the uniata ones. the lite-on is connected to my laptop via sata cable into the PCMCIA to SATA adapter with vt6421 chipset which i bought from http://www.diygadget.com/vt6421a-pcmcia-...r-xbox-360.html , the lite-on is being powered by my xbox. I have the 83850c version as well. when i open jungleflasher and click on the dvd32 key tab, i get the No Drive detected! for every single i/o port that i try. i've been searching through forums and google for days but can't figure out how to get the laptop to see the lite-on. any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I finally opened my new 360 and was excited to find that it is the 83850c from May... and then Wave4 hits.

I've held off flashing because of Wave4... but i am considering installing the Blaster 360 so i dont have to open my 360 every time a new firmware comes out.

Is there any downside to using this device? With the Lite-On? Is it detectable/compatible/etc?

Thx for the reply guys. Man its disheartening its been sooo easy up till this point . I have heard that around 50 percent of the august 09 drives or later can be flashed but the only way to tell is to give it a try in jf , the guy at jungleflashers irc chat told me as much . Im bummed out now but thx for the help.

Just install the VIA driver, and then uninstall, then try again. Don't install the uniata. I'm not for sure how this is going to work as I haven't really troubleshot issues dealing with a PCMCIA card.

Thats normal. I had that happen. As long as you arent using an actual via chipset, everything should be fine.

these can be done i have the same console with the exact same manufacture date 2009-08-29 and my drive is made july 09 83850c and i have successfully done mine. it took a few goes mind you to get the half open fully open combo right.if you get to the second part and it fails it mean that you are not getting the half open method right so try again. i used a via pci card and an xecuter pro to do mine just down load the jungleflasher guide and follow exactly what it says step by step exactly word for word.good luck

P.S. Been reading this forum for ages...don't know why I never joined.

i've never posted but have got tons and tons of info from just reading and searchin through threads. im stuck on a forming stack of open tray liteons and dont want to try anymore until i figure out whats going on. i'm 100% that im doing the flashing correctly following leerage's guide. all the steps go down just like the guide appearing like a successful flash. when i go to play a disc from dashboard whether its a backup or not it displays open tray after a few seconds. ive tried searching and i found a thread from where leerage said that it happens sometimes with the liteon 74850c and it might be the laser. there was another thread http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-152/..._liteon-809604/ up towards the top about pretty much the same issue. i tried the two suggested things in that thread to the first drive and still nothing. so after the first one i tried another one same thing (both 74850c). i wanted to take the laser ribbon off of the next drive before i flashed but it appeared as if it would rip off if i tried it. is that something i should have to do take the ribbon cable off before flashing? i keep thinkin im having a fluke laser go out so i opened up a june and august 2009 83850c and was able to get a good key from both of them. same thing when i tried them out open tray on both. i dont have any spare benqs right now so i just borrowed a spare new samsung drive from friend i want to try and spoof the fw to try out the liteons that i pulled the keys off with open tray error before i attempt this again. is that possible? have a few more august 8350c drives dont know if a key can be pulled from them or not but don't even want to try until i find out why this keeps happening 4/4. there are no errors or fails during the flash and all the steps are being followed verbatim to the guide. just doesn't want to play any discs. sorry for all the ??s had to let it out in my first post!! please help

At this point, since the 360 sees and uses the drive to play regular games I can assume a backup will work out ok since everything succeeded in flashing, correct? Or is there still a chance I cannot play backups?

Thanks.
