Greatest teamwork eva!

Hitachi 1.5 is set to be released shortly. Hold onto your pants Hitachi owners! =)

There is ALOT of new information to digest, in regards to this entire project, and the utilization of the LiteOn IXtreme firmware. With this release, also includes a new FirmTool (version 1.3), a beta version of JungleFlasher, which is a new GUI based all-in-one flash that includes a firmware tool, DVDKEY32, MTK flashing and Hitachi support. Please note that this software IS BETA and will not function 100%. Yes, there will be plenty of bugs JungleFlasher logs all errors/actions and will ask you to save a log upon exit. If you have a error please help us improve the software by emailing the log file to JungleFlasher - at - gmail - com. At this moment, we have had quirky issues in regards to VIA chipsets and flashing/reading/erasing the LiteOn drive. Please pay attention to the 2nd prompt in particular after hitting the Lite-On-Erase button. Power cycling the drive at the correct time is very important for VIA users. If the VIA polls the drive after erase, it WILL freeze/lock your computer. Tools for DOS erase/flash/key/spoof are included in this release for any users having difficulties within windows.
JungleFlasher REQUIREMENTS:
-PortIO32.exe - you MUST run this exe to install PortIO onto your system! (included in release)
-.NET 2.0 or above

Please note that at this time, IXtreme 1.5 still requires the utilization of a RS232 to TTL serial hardware, or a popular variant such as CK3 with Probe or Maximus Xtractor. This is necessary to extract the key/inquiry/identify .bin files. These files are neccessary for spoofing & gathering your key, even if you are just flashing the 1.5 IXtreme to a LiteOn drive. They contain serial information that is required for proper identification and security related issues. Note that spoofing to previous versions of IXtreme are NOT stealth, and is not supported.

If you have a CK3 please refer to this tutorial for dvdkey extraction:
http://team-xecuter.com/ck3/liteon_windows.htm

If you have a Maximus Xtractor please refer to this tutorial for dvdkey extraction:
http://www.maximusgames.net/360xtractor.php

We have compiled a tutorial on flashing the Liteon drive prior to the release of JungleFlasher. Tutorial is located here: http://dwl.xbox-scene.com/iriez/lite-on.dosflash32.tutorial.pdf
Instructions on flashing a LiteOn with JungleFlasher are as follows:
1: Hookup LiteON to sata port and power drive
2: In JungleFlasher select MTK Flash 32 Tab.
3: Select correct port (see above tutorials for figuring out the correct port)
4: Hit Lite-On-Erase button. NOTE - This is done AFTER you have already successfully transferred your inquiry.bin / identify.bin / key.bin files!!! Please read the Prompts VERY carefully! It is important to power cycle the drive at the correct moment to prevent your computer from freezing with VIA cards.
5: After power cycle, drive should return status 0x72 and display Flash information. If it does not, click Device ID and power cycle as prompted. If still not successful then you did not successfully erase the drive.
6: Once Flash information is displayed, you are ready to write! Go to firmware tool 32 tab and select "Load from dump files" and select your key/inquiry/identify .bin files. Then select ix15-liteon.bin after pressing "Open Target Firmware". Press "Spoof Source To Target". Then "Save to File" and save your CFW.bin.
7: Go back to MTK Flash 32 tab and select Write. It should automatically take the liteon firmware you loaded in the Firmware 32 tab and flash to the drive. It will automatically verify flash. If verified your done

If write verification fails, then there is likely a issue with JungleFlasher and your sata chipset. Please use DosFlash to flash the drive with the CFW.bin with the correct spoofed information. If the drive is successfully erased, dosflash will see the flash information and will be capable of writing!

DOS Instructions:
You will need to have your key.bin/inquiry.bin/identify.bin handy using the windows applications! If this is the case, please use firmtool 1.3 or JungleFlasher to prepare your ix15-liteon.bin with the correct dvdkey and spoofed serial information(inquiry/identify). At this moment, DOS based dvdkey/inquiry/identify extraction is not fully supported by TEAM JUNGLE. There is DOS based instructions for the CK3 by xecuter in the tutorial above.
1: Run L-O-Eras.EXE with the correct port specified (see tutorial above for Lite-On-Erase.exe information)
2: Run DosFlash.exe
3: Select correct number that represents your sata port / LiteOn drive. Note that the drive has to be successfully erased in order for DosFlash to see the drive!
4: Select write, and choose your liteon firmare .bin that you have prepared with your dvdkey / correctly spoofed identify / inquiry data!
5: Write, plug in drive and play xbox

A new DosFlash will be released very shortly that will include LiteOn DVDKey extraction and dummy.bin capabilities. Note that firmtool uses dummy.bin to correctly spoof information from dumped key/inquiry/identify into other 1.5 firmwares. At this moment JungleFlasher and DVDKey32 support the dummy.bin feature!

Yo, this is just an email I sent to some dude on Craigslist, and uh I figure you could possible answer the questions too :p

I don't know much about the 360 scene, so I  just wanted to clarify some things.
Is the update futureproof?  I know that your XBL can be taken away, and that's fine, but will an future update to the 360 brick it?

Will a 360 update make me have to update the iextreme firmware?

When/if you're banned from Live is it the entire 360 or just the gamertag?

I know it doesn't take long, so I could just stay while you do it?  (I have the BenQ drive, don't know if it takes longer than 30 minutes...If I remember right the only long part is opening teh 360 and that's easy with a certain tool I suppose you have if you do it routinely)

Any ex customer emails, that can give you a good word?

I know it's a lot of questions, but I'm just always trying make sure I'm not being scammed

Well it is hard to say if the update is future proof, but I'd have to say that so far they have been future proof. I'm still using the old iextreme because I been too lazy to update. Microsoft has yet to release any update that bricks 360's. Some people speculate they can't because of the way the 360 internals are designed. If you play a badly patched game then you could be banned. If you play certain games too early you could be banned too. I actually beat Gears of War 2 online, in co-op with my friend a full week before the game was released and both of us got banned lol. Your gamertag and XBL account won't be banned but your 360 will. So if you go out and get another 360, you can still use your same account and same harddrive as before.

Doesn't take too long to flash Benq drives. Usually takes me around 15-20 minutes to disasemble, flash, and reassemble. But the first time, it took me nearly an hour because I was being really carefully lol. I have one of those 360 opening tools and it makes the process extremely easier to do lol.

Also, how much is this guy gonna charge?

[tennisgy]

$30 just like everyone else on craigslist that have listed the service.

It's a buck per minute, but I don't care because I don't have to wait a week for an opening tool to come.  It also looks extremely complicated =/

Um, what brand do you recommend.  Verbatim has been mentioned, but they are so DAMN EXPENSIVE.

I suppose $30 is fair price but its not as complicated as it seems lol. Verbatims are "allegedly" the best. I have nearly 100 backups and over half of them are Memorex and the others are Sony. They are both good and you can get a 50pack of Memorex for around $35. Way cheaper than the Verbatims.

[tennisgy]

Yeh the verbatims have been $35 for a 25 pack spindle

I also didn't want to wait for that opening tool to come in the mail, break wouldve been over 

edit-What's a good private site to get games from, and do I have to be invited?

In the imgburn drive settings, what do I do...I'm trying to use my phillips DVD+R DL writer, but it will stop at the layer break.  Even if I have it set to the 191xxxx number...  I don't see phillips in the settings.

Do I use BenQ because that's what my 360 is?

Hmm, I've honestly never touched the settings in imgburn. All I do is load up the .dvd file and burn, it'll tell imgburn where the layer break is.

OMG, SO EFFIN AWESOME
