WOOOO!

Thanks again on your hard work you two!

This officially means that virtually every major bit of software for the 360 has released an update within the last week.

Thank god, now n00bs will stop flashing Birdy's cause it has the media patch.

Much, much thanks to Maximus for updating this and GaryOPA for originally releasing this.

So to get this straight..

Now hitachi's have stealth media AND firmware

Samsungs only stealth media.

Sorry for my ignorance but does this mean xbox live cannot see modded hitachi's now?
I know an update may be able to change things.. however there is no way for them to know now that hitachi systems are modded period?

also.. when restoring..
Take unique folder from old xlg folder (old opa release) and put it in this new maximus-garyopa release right?
then hit restore? does this unique id folder even need to be put in this release?

WOW!!!! The Mediapatch makes a huge difference. 2 games I backed up and burnt that didn't work at all on 2.1 now work perfectly. Burnt from a NEC3550 onto verbatim and cheap playo media, both worked flawlessly. No need for the pioneer I ordered now. Cheap DL media!!!!!! wooooo, I love it. THANKS VERY MUCH TO ALL INVOLVED.

Hey guys,

If I install this new firmware, can I burn games using Schtrom360XtractV3.0 under the 'stealth xtreme 3.0' task setting, and have the disk work in my xbox?

If I do this, will the disk perform in a stealthy fashion, or will I have to wait until a further update by GaryOpa for this to take effect.

To clarify, my main question is whether this firmware will ready 'stealth xtreme 3.0' disks regardless of whether they will act in a stealth manner or not.

Thanks,
And I'm new so go easy on me if this isn't an appropriate forum for this kind of talk.

This FW is for the Hitachi drives. The media stealth is only implemented in the samsung (3.0+) but I think that Xbox backup Creator will rip the sectors that make the media stealth.

I have not been able to get Schtrom to work with my hitachi. I have read all the posts pertinent & I have only heard the samsung mentioned so I dont think it will work for ya.

If you were to rip the disk from a drive with firmware that supports stealth, you can play it on a Hitachi with this FW & it would be complete stealth. But time will tell...

Hey dude,

Thanks for your help. To clear things up a little, what I hope to do is read a 360 game using the samsung sh-d162c with Schtrom 360 XtracV3.0, and the 'whole disc (stealth xtreme 3.0)' setting.

If I do this, will the disc be readable in my 360 Hitachi drive once flashed with this new firmware, and if so, will it operate in 'stealth mode' or the regular type.

If you or anyone else here can answer my question that would be awesome.

Cheers.

Thanks for all your hard work Gary. You must have spent a lot of time on this. The 360 Hitachi users were anticipating this release for so long. You do a great job everytime.

Not till YOU send your drive to GaryOPA or someone who can make a fix.

You're probably stuck without xtreme firmware for a LOONG time if you won't do it yourself.

But... If you want something done and you're not going to do it yourself, you can't complain.

I can wait a while, I think someone has this drive and has a eeprom programmer so this is good news.
