Unable To Make Modified Firmware
« on: November 01, 2006, 11:32:00 AM »

Mainboard is a asus a7n8x deluxe
I boot using a usb pendrive. Hp Format tool...

I'v tried reading the firmware "mtkflash r /m orig.bin" and "mtkflash r orig.bin"
(I'v also tried "mtkflash r /SATA orig.bin" but then it just stops at 00% reading)


it find my drive, i choose pri master.
port: 170, Master/Slave: a0

Flash Type : "SST(SST39LV/VF040) (+3,3V)"

it reads...

Reading.....Finished! DataSum D00E, OPCSum    0

>>> Please REBOOT your PC!

So i do.

When i then try to modify the orig.bin file to the "Xtreme firmware 4.2A and 4.2B for TS-H943 Xbox 360"
using X360SAM i get this error message:


C:\xbox\Xtreme42>x360sam orig.bin xtrem42a.bin x42a.bin
Xbox 360 DVD Drive Key Copier for Samsung TS-H943
Version 0.2 (build 06.08.05) by eXOBeX
Original firmware from Xbox 360: orig.bin
Master copy of hacked firmware: xtrem42a.bin
New hacked firmware for Xbox 360: x42a.bin
orig.bin is not 256K in length - aborting!

My file is 512kb

is it that i use a wrog version of the mtkflash, for the x360sam?

Thanks

Your orig.bin should be 256kb. Are you sure your backing up the correct drive? I would recheck your doing the right drive first.

I'v been reading some more, it doesnt work...

I also got a MSI K8N NEO3, i can't get it to work there either, thoug it should be compatible(using tne nf4 mtkflash)

well, then i have to go visit a friend.

thanks
