Why cant you use the eject button then power off then push in the drive half way

Because, its the simple fact that the xbox's last known stage should be closed, not open.

Yes, but they say it's not Live-safe, so beware.

All it means is, there is an obvious route of detection should MS persue it.

You can still use live, as always you run the risk of being banned.

Yes you can put the lite-on in and use that for games online.

as far as we know if it the same as spoofing any other drive. and safer if you use the spoof data you pull from your Lite-On Drive to flash to your new Samsung drive. I would say your fine.

Arakon · « **Reply #96 on:** September 03, 2008, 12:24:00 AM »

it's not. c4eva said that apparently the liteon uses its unique ID string in the SS generation somehow, which will obviously be missing in other drives.

Hello to all.

I have a few questions for you experts.

1) If you make something wrong to the construction of the RS232 to TTL converter, when you start the procedure of dumping the key can you damage the drive?

2) As i read you can construct the RS232 to TTL converter by using the MAX232 chip. As i checked the datasheets of MAX3232 and MAX232, it seems that the do the same job with the difference that the MAX232 requires 5v in order to operate whereas MAX3232 can work either by 3.3 or 5.
My question is:

If i supply the MAX232 with 5V from the PSU of my PC and not with the 3.3 of the XBOX360 controller, is their any chance to damage the drive?

3) I built an RS232 to TTL converter based on ST3232 chip. I did not manage to dump the key although i followed the guide (WITH NO CONNECTIVITY KIT) step by step. The error i was accepting from DVDKEY was the following:

c:\DVDKEY>dvdkey 9000
Port 9000
Drive Present
Wait about 20 seconds

It didn't work, sorry reg1: 54
DVD key:
00000000000000000000000000000000
Seems NOT a good DVD Key!!! 00 00
KEY.BIN saved

I am sure that the COM communication is ok as i tested my RS232 adapter by looping the tx and rx cables to the hyper terminal. Also my port has the right setting (3F8/IRQ4).
I tried several times with a lot of different variants of the dumping procedure with no result i was taking the same error all the time.

After testing and testing i realised that i had missplaced the tx,rx cables to the RS232 adapter (to wrong RS232 pins). I corrected them and tried to dump again with the same outcome (same error as before).

The problem is that now when i turn on the 360 it starts up ok no errors on the screen but when i put either games or movies to the drive, it does not read them and then i get "Unreadable error".

Is it any chance that i destroyed my drive or just i had a laser de-calibration?

If it is the second case i will build a new converter based on the MAX3232 chip and not to the ST3232 as it seems to have differences.

Thank you all in advance, i will appreciate your help.

Is there a good (better) online forum to learn about this new drive or should I just lurk in #fw and hope for the best?

Sooo, anywhere?

I think there's a remarkable lack of discussion regarding this, despite how big this news is.

KondorX · « **Reply #101 on:** September 03, 2008, 09:49:00 PM »

anyone know a good steep by steep tutorial? i read all the topic and i see two good tutorials but they are a little messy for my english.

Regards and thank u all

Anyone please??

Also, if you use the connectivity kit is it mandatory to join the two jumpers/solder pads for TxD and RxD on the drive?

If you use an RS232 to TTL converter MAX232 based, will the IC operate if you supply it with 3.3 volts and not with 5V?

IronSavior · « **Reply #104 on:** September 04, 2008, 03:29:00 AM »

Can somebody clarify the following as it is critical to the dumping process.

I have read to some tuts that the drive must be half opened in open state and other say that the drive must be opened in close state.

Can someone that managed to grab the key clarify the above?
