so i was trying to flash my sammy using jungleflasher on an old computer and the whole system froze when erasing the 0 bank. I did read the f/w and got the key off so all is not lost.
the problem im having now is since the drive is locked i cant seem to get it recognized by my computer AT ALL. tried for like the last month to get this thing to take vendor mode with no luck.
pretty much i tried the bad flash recovery method psted on this site, tried the j/f bad flash recovery, tried dosflash. nothing seems to work for this thing.
the most confusing part is that my via 6421 card can be seen by windows, and when i hook up a regular cd/dvd drive through the sata cable and use a 3n1 adapter i can see the regular drive, but nothing EVER shows up when i reattach the sammy straight to the chip.
plus, in iprep and dosflash it will go to the point where i resend the vendor intro to my sata port, but the status ALWAYS stays at 0x80 and never changes no matter when i turn the 360 off and on...
does anyone here have any ideas as to how i can get this darn drive to take the vendor intro so i can get it fixed? or should i just say ofck it and get myself a new drive?
