why is there a "x" in bank 2, ive never seen this before.

[andipad]

dont kno i have tried to flash this already like 5 times the first time i did it did not give that x but when i would put in a backup it would say open tray

[louisM92]

Ive never seen that before i cant help you, maybe someone else can, sorry man :/

[HaGGardSmurf]

Its flashed fine, at least the log looks good.

The x just means it failed to read that sector, but if you notice there is still 16 dots, so it failed, retried and read it fine.

Does your drive play originals, and dvd's if so, then its your media thats bad, or your dvd burner.

[andipad]

it plays originals good when i put the backup it says open tray and it cant be my dvd burner cause it writes dl dvds and i used to have a xbox360 with a liteon drive flashed and it woul read it so did it flash okay

[HaGGardSmurf]

What is likely going on here is your MS28 has a weak laser. Original games and DVD's are pressed with million dollar equipment, and we are burning backups with a 40 dollar drive, and a 2 dollar DVD, so the quality is much lower than original games, and original dvd's so the drive has a harder time reading it.

To me that log looks fine, and the write was verified ok, so all seems well... Try replacing your laser in that ms28 and you should be all good to go...

[andipad]

what i dont get it that it reads some of my backups but not all of them

[andipad]

is replacing the laser easy to do and i would have to get a laser that is for the samsung ms28

[HaGGardSmurf]

Replacing the laser is as easy as opening the drive, un plugging some ribbon cables, and unscrewing the rail, then removing the laser.

There's a link to a video of me replacing the laser in my samsung/hitachi

Sammy's and Hitachi's share laser's, so you can buy either laser.

PS, if I were you, id just buy a whole new drive. You can buy the 10 dollar laser, and put it in an old worn out drive, or pay 20-30 and buy a completely brand new drive.

[andipad]

okay but if i buy a new drive will my xbox360 accept it like do i have to do anything to the brand new drive

[cyantific]

okay but if i buy a new drive will my xbox360 accept it like do i have to do anything to the brand new drive

You'll just have to spoof the new drive to the old drive. Should be able to find a tutorial very quickly here

[andipad]

yes but i am going to buy the same drive that is already came with my 360 i still have to spoof it which is a samsung
