Xbox 360 Drive Flash

Post by carlos »

I flashed my xbox 360 benq drive with the very latest version of jungleflasher and the latest version of ixtreme lite touch v1.1, but when at the very end when jungleflasher verifies the flash, it says 'flash failed.'

When I read the custom firmware with 360 toolbox, in the firmware column, the firmware shows up as original firmware, so I tested it with a backup game and it the game works fine.

Why did it say 'flash failed' in jungleflasher?

Does this mean I have flashed the custom firmware correctly (as I can play backup games), or do I need to flash my 360 drive again?

Thanks

Not sure why it would say failed. But if you have managed to play a backup then hacked fw has been flashed to the drive. If it working ok now leave it as it is.

Well it should show up as original FW since your on LT 1.1

To be honest I havent used LT 1.1 yet but it may be that they made it so when you poll the drive it doesnt come back as Lite Touch anymore, it may just show as stock. May have made JF think the flash failed.

Who knows thats just my theory, as to the update of 1.1. To be quite honest if your able to play backups the firmware was flashed fine. If there was anything wrong with the flash your drive wouldn't function at all.

Seeing as it works fine, and plays backups and original's JF made a mistake.
