[carranzafp]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Maximus-Garyopa_XTRM-HITACHI_v2_2_Stealth 8in1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
*** MOST OF THE WORK IS FROM garyOPA, even most of this Readme File ***
*** TESTED MANY TIMES ON 46/47/59/59B, other versions not tested    ***

FEATURES (my contribution on this release):

* Removed old media detection and replaced with better media detection
  (media detection ver 2) from Geremia.
* Incorporates Maximus Firmware Stealth (Full Firmware Stealth)
* Added support for 59b firmware (what a stupid fw)
* Not yet Media Stealth... I have not heard news on this topic


Three Commands (for flashing use only one: Flash15s or Flash22s, no both):

FLASH22S.BAT: Flashes your drive with 2.2 Fw Stealth (Media Detect 2,
              F900 core and Firwmare Stealth

FLASH15S.BAT: Flashes your drive with 1.5 Fw Stealth (Media Detect 2,
              and Firwmare Stealth, (NO F900 Core)

RESTORE.BAT:  Return your drive to original State, even if you have
              firmware stealth in your drive


*RECOMENDATION: If you have flashed your drive in the past use RESTORE
first. If it is a brand new drive use directly the Flash command you
like. If you dont plan to use your drive to dump games use the
flash15s.bat


* ALL NEW XTREME V2.2 FIRMWARE FOR ALL BUILDS OF THE HITACHI DRIVES!

   - Now includes "Security Sector Extraction" for all Hitachi Drives

   - Included media detection 2 from Geremia and Maximus Firmware
     Stealth, this release just supports SS Extraction within Windows
     without the need to re-flash your drive back and forth between
     PLAY & RIP!



Flashing your drive
-------------------
FLASH22S.BAT automatically makes a complete backup of your firmware system

* To FLASH a drive, it must be in "Mode B" and have "Drive Letter"
* Then just run FLASH21 from "Command Prompt" while inside windows
* Prompt must be at the same directory with the rest of the files!

* FLASH22S needs two variables, the assigned "Drive Letter", and any 4
  numbers for the BACKUP directory, use a new unique number like 1572

  - This is used to make your BACKUP directory!

  - For Example: FLASH22S.BAT H 1572

  - Will cause the FLASH after running to have, a BACKUP directory
    "X22-1572" and the program will store FIVE firmware files:

    ---- key.bin   ---- DRIVE KEY /// DRIVE KEY
    ---- was.bin   ---- Your drive before FLASH
    ---- gdrXX.bin ---- The untouch original fw
    ---- XX_22.bin ---- The patched Xtreme22 fw
    ---- now.bin   ---- Your drive after FLASH!

  - Where the XX in the above names will be the version of your Hitachi

* Program will not start unless a BACKUP is correctly made and stored!

* Flash will auto-detect your firmware build of your Hitachi drive.

* You can flash any drive, even "v1.1" or "f900" or your own hacks.

* System will check flashed firmware, and redo until 100% completed.

* Once you get the PASS / DONE line, you can shut-down the system.


FLASH15S.BAT is the same as above but, without F900 core, use this
if you dont want to extract SS with your drive.



Restoring your drive
--------------------
RESTORE.BAT automatically restores your drive back to original state

* To RESTORE a drive, it must be in "Mode B" and have "Drive Letter"
* Then just run RESTORE from "Command Prompt" while running windows.

* The new RESTORE does not need any backup, it will 100% restore your
  drive back to "ORIGINAL" state as long as it is visible in Windows!

* Program will not start unless it detects the version of your Hitachi!

* You can restore any drive, even "v1.1" or "f900" or your own hacks.

* System will check flashed firmware, and redo until 100% completed.

* Once you get the PASS / DONE line, you can shut-down the system.

I can confirm that the firmware does work for SS extraction. 

Xbox 360 and Xbox One.  For Xbox One you need to apply the same fix that worked for Kreon's .80 firmware. Basically zero out 0x200-0x2CF and total of 0xD0 bytes. Doing this and the game will boot.  There are only 2 other differences, but they seem to not matter.  2 bytes one at 0x72F the the other at 0x7FE.

NDT - Your problem is different, try it with my "Xbox Backup Creator" and send me your Log.txt with the Log Level set to Debug.  It might have error codes that will help identify the problem.

Oh and I might put out a small update to do Xbox One SS extraction with the Hitachi using my app if there is a demand for it, use my thead to discuss it please.

[EDIT] Ohh yeah, My app doesn't allow SS Extraction because of the nature of the Firmware Stealth, There is a registry patch that can fix it if anyone is interested, PM me for details.

[atari4eva]

Still restore even when there is only Garry's 2.1 on drive?

[Iriez]

Yes, as it clearly stated in the readme.

[gio23]

hi boys, I already have the Firmware Garyopa 2.1 +Maximus Firmware Stealth 1.2 that i put after manually ! would I like to know whether coming back alone doing the Restore.bat with the Restore of this new release is possible? if it is not like, that explain me how I must proceed, thanks a lot! sorry for my english

[bibbo81]

great! i'll test it very soon! thanx!

[Xenn0X]

yeah can you upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 without restore?

[Romps]

yeah can you upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2 without restore?

From the first post of this topic...

*RECOMENDATION: If you have flashed your drive in the past use RESTORE
first. If it is a brand new drive use directly the Flash command you
like. If you dont plan to use your drive to dump games use the
flash15s.bat

[Xenn0X]

ok my bad, will wait till more upgraded version:)
works fine on 2.1 now and do not use live at all so no need for stealth for me:)
thnx for the new version max and gary

[rgoeke]

I tried this today on my hitachi 46dh.

before i did this, i restored my drive back to original.
with : restore driveletter
100%.

so, than i flashed this version.

but, now... when i put in a backup disc it says ... if you want to play put this into a xbox 360.(
"it boots to the mainly video, that is on every disc."

before this, it' goes black and then after a few seconds ... it said the disc you insert is dirty.

i got a ger.pal 360.
tried backups with ntsc and pal region code.

how i can select the files to restore, manualy ?
i want to flash the original firmware without reverse patching .

cause, i think theres someting went wrong with the reversed patched version.


when i boot to windows, the drive is allways recognized there as drive G: ...

but ...

1. the debug led isn't flashing !
2. the disc tray went allways open, and i can't close it !.
3. flashing should work. but after reboot, i looks like nothing has changed.

cause it just boot's quickly into video (put this disc into 360...)

i tried 5 times, but no changes.

[klipseracer]

stuck in mode b? wtf.

[carranzafp]

You can use the RESTORE included into the release... indeed it is better to use this RESTORE because it has support for 59B and the 2.1 restore does not have it.

I have heard many success histories on several forums but of course there are people having problems but I can be considered as "isolated" problems. 

My best recomendation is as stated on the readme:
"If you have flashed your drive in the past use RESTORE
first. If it is a brand new drive use directly the Flash command you
like. If you dont plan to use your drive to dump games use the
flash15s.bat "

[dv8ormods]

I just installed this on my friends xbox and it is booting backups better but after playing dead rising for 10mintutes i get  dirty disc error also these would not work on the 2.1.
or 1.2 so the media detection is working so this is my setup for backups
memorex duallayers
compusa burner\
maximus software
and a shd162c

Hi,sorry about some noob questions,I haven't used xbins since the Xbox1 some years ago.
Do I have to go through xbons to get the sw for the 360? I still remember how to do it,i think,.
By 'stealth'-mode in the firmware,does this mean that it's invisible to xbox-live? Since this is *very* important to me. ;-)

Best regards
Chiron

[GhettoChild]

Yes, you have to go on xbins and get the firmware. Its not 100% safe to assume that it is safe for live because they can always do a media check, but use on live at your own risk.

[MSimpson]

I flashed my 47 and everything is working great. Thanx

[MSimpson]

After flashing my drive with this firmware I believe my drive isn't as loud?? Is this possible?  I am not sure what version I had before.. All I know is that it was one of the first GaryOpa releases..

So what we have to do to extractt correct ss.bin files for xbox 1 games using Hitachi drive? im confused Is there a tool that can auto-correct the xbox 1's ss.bin files that garyopa's 2.2 fw makes?
