ok guys as u can tell im a noobie..i know how to do my own games, i figured out how to make my psp run homebrew. so im not, as some of you will say in a while,"a stupid spoonfed noobie" i am gonna attempt to upgrade my xbox 360 lite-on drive from 1.5 to 1.51.
Question 1, should i hold off for a while and wait for 1.6 as this will be the most uptodate firmware and decrease my chances of being banned from live?
Question 2, OR shud i upgrade to 1.51 as the only apparent advantage of 1.6 is to be able to burn games with ur xbox?(i think im right saying that,as i have read numerous posts)
Also im not right up on technical jargon i can understand some talk, but the guide for the jungle flasher is like someone speaking klingon to me.I know some of u keep saying "read the guide its self explanitory" but senior members and moderators its not that easy..when i read it is all the lite-on material relevant or is some of it for flashing from original firmware?

As of right now, 1.51 and 1.6 have the same stealth and wave support. 1.6 is still under going testing so I'm not for sure if anything will change.

You can only copy games with 1.6 firmware, not burn.
Basically what you need to do is have a compatible SATAchipset so you can flash the firmware. I know there is a spot specifically dedicated in the JF tut for this scenario but...
What you need to do:
1. Connect your 360 drive to the compatible SATA in your computer.
2. You need to get your drive in "half tray" status.
3. Under DVDkey you need to click "dummy from ixtreme".
4. JF will prompt you to save your key, inquiry, indentify, and dummy bin. Click yes to autoload and it will automatically spoof your dummy to 1.51.
5. Go to MTKflash tab and click LiteON Erase
6. Power cycle when prompted. Will return status 0x72 and click write.
7. When verified OK, click Outro/ATA Reset.
thanks for that...and thanks for not patronising me....lol..i know some questions can be repeated so many times and i know u probably get tired of answering them over and over again...but as they say with great knowledge comes great responsibilty (or something like that, i think spidermans auntsaid it..lol)anyway for my follow up question.
Is there a way of finding out in advance if my satachipset is compatable?
Come talk with us on efnet at #elitemods !!! or just click ME
ALSO, DO NOT SEND ME MESSAGES ON LIVE REGARDING MODDING CONSOLES, OR HOW I PLAYED A CERTAIN GAME EARLY. I WILL NOT RESPOND. I WILL INSTEAD DELETE YOUR MESSAGE, AND BLOCK ALL COMMUNICATION FROM YOU. JUST SEND ME A PM ON HERE.
no.somebody else modded it..bout 1 week before 1.51 came out..lol..kinda thinkin i shud just take it back to him and asking him to update it...but thanks for the advice anyway will go google whateva it was u said to google and see what it comes back with.
thanks again
