just found out that the

Back to the news-page

Xecuter 360 Connectivity Kits  dont work with the samsung drive wont a $#!t .


 Edit: Debug mode (modeb) currently works with the Hitachi drive - we are investigating a method for the Samsung drive. Also we have noticed Hitachi is detected in windows but not in DVD Info Pro so unable to send custom commands at the moment so you will still need to flash the 0800 firmware, however once this adapter is in the hands of the firmware hackers we are sure that better tools will be available.

as any one got an idea or do u have yours working now so dont care about others ...

thats not cool ,i need help here .i have try and tryed at this for hours . and its driving me crazy man ..

all so when the drive is set in the bios as raid i get this err;fail to open input file ! flash type :"(sstcsst39sf020)"

Sounds like mtkflash is detecting your drive fine. Make sure the command you are typing is currect.

To backup type
mtkflash r /m backup.bin

Then to flash type
mtkflash w /m xtreme.bin

Make sure you backup first, then insert your key into xtreme.bin. (if the file your flashing is named something other then xtreme.bin make sure to change that to the currect name while typing the command)

ok thnx for the reply but thats what i was tryping or close too ..

this is how i done it > mtkflash r/m orig.bin and got that error ,So your saying that it should be fine even thou its in raid mod on bios ? .. please reply ..

Theres a space between r and /m, thats why your getting errors. Raid is fine, set it the same way as when you got the fail to input error.

[karlos]

ok just done all that and get this now >>port:d000, master/slave:b0


And just doing nothing for about five minutes is that right ?

and all so whats r and m mean ..please
thnx

[stonersmurf]

Are you sure you setup the exact same way as when you got the failed to open input file error?

r = read or dump firmware
w = write the firmware to drive
/m = I believe selects all banks

[karlos]

yeah i done it the same way you siad like mtkflash r /m back.bin

and it did that and was doing nothing after that .just siting there
the only thing thats buging me now is what mode do i need the 360 Connectivity kit in red or green or dont it matter ? ..

thnx

[stonersmurf]

Try again, your chipset is 100% compatible with mtkflash. Turn your 360 off and on between each try.

Make sure bios settings are the same as when you got the first error, failed to input file.

[karlos]

i will try ..

but there is this that i am not sure about the only thing thats bugging me now is what mode do i need the 360 Connectivity kit in red or green or dont it matter ? ..unless i dont have the right mtkflash program that as been moded

thnx

[stonersmurf]

i will try ..

but there is this that i am not sure about the only thing thats bugging me now is what mode do i need the 360 Connectivity kit in red or green or dont it matter ? ..

thnx

The Connectivity kit don't matter, don't press any buttons you might break your drive if you haven't already..

[karlos]

well just checked the drive and it working with retrail game ..
but still no flashing ..just stops there and doing narder

all so i did ask before but u missed what i said i think how long will it take to back it up , 2 sec

[karlos]

please need more help

[stonersmurf]

You got to the point where it detected the flash type "flash type :"(sstcsst39sf020)"

That means it was working fine at that point exept your commands were off, so you must be doing something wrong now. Don't know what else to tell you but keep trying. Try selecting all options it gives you after typing the command.

You can also try editing mtkflash but I doubt its needed if it detects the flash type..

Tutorial on editing mtkflash here: http://dwl.xbox-scene.com/tutorial/xbox360firmwaretutorialv18.pdf

It takes more then 2 seconds to backup the firmware.

[karlos]

ok thank you for your kind help .i will keep trying untill me friend get bored and wants it back lol .. but his cool so long as it dont go bang and make a brick lol .. then he would have a door stop

[karlos]

[karlos]

ok i have done my friends box and now working on my new one ,so i dont want to brick my one now again like i did my other one.
this is very hard for me to tell you what i mean but i will try ,

Ok i am not useing the kdx program as i did my friends one with a hex editor ,and works great ,nut now with my one i have run in to a problem ,
in the hex program i back up from 4000 to 4200 ,but when i past it back the the xtreme.BIN file i endup two bit of code missing on the end ,in the backup copy there is a number 20 , and in the next row from that one there is a blank space ,
but when copying that the xtreme.BIN file the number 20 becomes FF and the blank space becomes y , so i was wondering what is wrong and need help before saveing the files and flashing the drive as i dont want a brick ..

thank uu

[stonersmurf]

Just use kdx 1.5, and open the firmware with you buddies key in it and paste your key into that. It will work flawlessly. You can't brick a Samsung unless you plug the power cable in backwards or something dumb. You can always reflash no matter what so don't worry about it.

Make sure you backup your firmware first in a few safe places, so you don't lose your key!

Edit: Also try posting in already made topics. I can find your questions just as easy if you post in your previous topic.

Thanks

done thnx
