I have old Samsung drive with LT and dash is some leaked beta Kinect Dashboard.
When I try to play NFS Hot Pursuit I have "Disk unreadable" error.
Abgx said that it had AP25.
Will new LT+ firmware work with my old Samsung or did I waste my disk?
I have another xbox with Hitachi, but I can't flash it because I get bsod :(

I found a machine that I hadn't cracked yet, with a Hitachi 47 in it. After crack, I could only read original disks. Thought the crack hadn't worked. tried it three more times, with Slax 2.1 CD for mode B, IX 1.51, etc -- then realized that it could be a DVD laser problem. Adjusted the pot all the way down to 2.8 Ohms, and now it reads them all!! I updated to the connect dash in the system settings, before trying the disk. NFS:HP just started after creating a non live profile to save. No install or anything. I guess the Hitachi 47, at least -- we now know, doesn't handle the AP 25! confirmed!

Sweet!!

are these so called bans going to happen if you play on a live account or it wouldn't matter what type of profile?

cause i tried a NFS. didn't work, but on an offline profile. still warranting a ban?

Every other game that I have burned (there are 9 games before NFSHP) and they all have worked well. I use Verbatim and always burn with lowest speed with "Xbox Backup Creator" and always check ISOs with abgx. I don't use my modded xbox on Live so I use offline account.

EDIT:
My dashboard is the leaked 2.0.12416.0 and I managed to get NFSHP to work after I installed it to hard drive. When I try to start a race in Career mode game crashes.

I have a samsung drive that originally ran ms28 and just flashed it to LT 1.0 a few weeks ago. I've had no problems running backups until these AP2.5 games. I just get a black screen when trying to run NFS:HP and AC:B. Haven't tried running Fable 3 yet, but it's getting frustrating. Most of the forums say Samsung drives are supposed to run AP2.5 games, but mine seems to be one of the exceptions. Over on iextreme's website there are a few threads about Sammy's not working with AP2.5 games. Since LT+ is only for Benq and Lite-on what do Samsung users do to get things working? All of my isos are run through abgx360 and some had verified stealth, some not (I only play offline).

LOL. Too bad that firmware isn't on the samsung. LT 1.0 is most current for samsung drives.

Anyone who has a drive that doesn't support ap2.5 needs to stay AWAY from abgx 1.0.4 due to the auto patching with ap2.5. Since those drives do NOT support ap2.5, patching will make the game NOT work on the hitachi and samsungs. Yes some samsungs and hitachis will boot them but not all.

Just use ABGX 1.0.3 and use a game that is NOT patched with ap2.5 and it should boot just fine.

Fable3 works OK but N4SHP shows disc not readable. Using new dash which was updated when I played Harry Potter & deadly hallows. Will try AC2 and see if that works. Thought these 3 games all had same problem with AP2.5 but looks like I was wrong. Any reason why one will work and not the other?

Wow, Modking30, you are the flippin...well, modking! I can't believe no one else has brought this up on any other forums. I noticed the patching in abgx 1.0.4 and thought that seemed like a weird thing to do for a drive that doesn't take ap2.5.

So the answer is to run ap2.5 games through abgx1.0.3 instead of 1.0.4, and then burn, right?

it would have worked with 1.61 but only with the activate disc. its better that you updated to LT anyway as its less of a hassle than swapping disc constantly.

good work
Hello all , I need some help
I am running my xbox with a lt-on drive and I am unable to play the new Need for Speed, using a backup.

I do not know what flash version I currently have running as I did not flash the machine myself.

My dashboard is 2.0.9199.0

Patched image with ppf omatic and abgx1.05
Game asks me to update when inserted. Notsure if i should accept it.

Thanks

its trying to install the new dashboard. dont do it from the backup disc. either update system with a retail disc, usb update, or online. and you need new firmware for your drive cause if you update the system and then try to boot a new game like NFS which has ap2.5 then it will flag your system to be banned if it isnt already.

If you send me questions on Live about modding or anything related i will block you. Dont be an idiot.

Having tested this, I've had no problems running ap2.5 games after running them through abgx1.0.3 instead of 1.0.4. I tried contacting someone at abgx (Seacrest) about the issue through their IRC, but didn't get a response. Hopefully an option can be built into abgx to sidestep the ap2.5 patching when you have a drive that can't use the patch and doesn't recognize ap2.5.

And pm122uk, I don't know enough to give you a definitive answer, but I do know I updated when I got the Kinect without any problems so far. I have been avoiding game updates lately for fear of getting banned though, so I'd like to know the answer too.

ok to summarise , if I use abgx103 with my back up , upgrade my firmware for my LT drive and update my dash from usb my system will be ok to play nfs hp?

My dashboard is 2.0.9199.0 currently

I have two simple questions:
Where do I get firmware update for LT drive?
Where do I get dash update for my xbox360?

no madden 11 has no AP2.5. If you are on Lt+1.1 then your disc might be a bad burn?
