Oh, sorry.. i thought that it only logged changes in firmware, i.e. an upgrade or mod after initial use.
We'll see tomorrow i guess - after the update, prepared for the worst though so im not too bothered.

I think that flashed firmware is always detectable. I read lots of posts about how challenge response times differ from a non-flashed dvd drive and other possible detectable differences.
But if microsoft is smart, they can always detect different firmware.
example in bytes:
Original firmware: 010101010101
Flashed firmware: 010101110101
How can you even make custom firmware without having a different kinda checksum compared to the original firmware?
Again, I have to interject when I read just bad noob posts.
Do you know anything about IT or flashing? The firmware is LOCKED OUT! Microsoft can't just probe your console and get a checksum of your drive's firmware. They CANNOT detect firmware natively.
As I have said many many times, if you would heave search for anything, Microsoft left themselves a backdoor by doing and issuing challenges to the drive. But just probing the drive and getting the firmware, not possible.
You are right, I don't know anything about flashing a dvd drive. But I do know there are simple applications for both windows and dos that can update firmware software on the dvd drive. I guess it is about the same thing as flashing a BIOS ROM?
Why would it be IMPOSSIBLE for microsoft to read there own firmware checksums? They cannot install a small piece of code with a dashboard update to read your firmware and send it on your next live connect?
Maybe you can explain the noob then ;)

Everyone is still blaming the firmware being detected. Call it what you want , I was the first to get hit on OCT 30th , started this thread and since made a test. Almost identical to C4E. I have two boxes , both running 1.61 virgins ( never played a backup) and the one who is only plawying retail is still fine. The other one , not so much , played at least 10 verified backups and banned on nov 12th. Just my 2 cents.

Yeah well didn't C4eva and whoever claim all the previous firmware was "undetectable" also?? And look what happened to most of us. MS is smart and will continue banning people, regardless of new firmware or not.

All this flaming off C4eva firmware is really starting to get on my tits.
We ALL knew the risks of using modified firmware that eventually M$ would find a way to find us out.
Look on the bright side all the money you may have saved on games you can use on a new console if your that desperate to go back onlive.
Me personally i looked at X-box Live as a perk for my console thats all.
Big deal i have been banned of live woopie do dah i didnt really care about live as i have my PC for all the multi player goodness that i will ever need.
I think we will be really lucky if C4eva releases the light touch firmware, as many of the threads around all the forums try to blame him, Dont take it personaly guys we knew it would happen 1 day

just read the first page of this thread, in it funny how quickly things change, bearing that in mind i think everyone should keep quiet about what is causing the ban wave til the dust has died down a bit. I can see clearly now the rain has gone.....lol

I agree, without C4eva we wouldn't have this firmware in the first place. He's doing great work and we'll all be lucky if he keeps it up. There wouldn't be much of a scene without work like his now would it. To all of you who are bashing...can you do any better? cause if so lets see it otherwise shut it and show some respect!

Its not ironic mate, im not saying dont flash your consol i did and i got banned but i accept it because the service is worth it to me. If they ban my pc with windows 7 pirate ill buy that too. Fortunately they cant ;)
