i have a system that rroded the person i got it from sold all the parts i fixed it but need a drive dont know what drive was in it so when i flash the replacement drive with lt+ it will be no good for online correct

do you have the dvd drive key
that is in the orig dvd drive firmware
if you dont have the key
then you will not be able to get the console to boot any game
backup or original
it will only play dvd movies

[ace135]

yes i have the keys but he has changed the name of the file so its not hit,lit,sam.bin i have everything i need just wondering if that falls under the spoof category or some other flagging aspect

All you'll need to do is open jungle flasher, load source FW, open your .bin file and it will say what drive the FW is from.

I assume you only have the motherboard right now, so whatever drive the FW says it's from buy that drive. IE: If its a samsung drive, go on ebay and buy a new samsung, benq lite-on hitachi same thing...

If your going to keep this console offline, then you can buy any drive and spoof. It looks like having a spoofed drive will allow you to boot the game, but the ap 2.5 check will flag you.
