New Anti Flashing Deterent For Benq
« on: February 03, 2020, 01:24:00 PM »

I flashed VAD6038 BENQ DRIVE
Firmware version 62430CR

Flashed successfully, I even checked the drive key in the new firmware tool box 4.8
I then hook the drive back to the xbox and get the 1 red ring bottom right corner. I looked to see what the error was and it states it can be a wrong firmware on dvd drive error. So I then triple check to see if i have the rite cracked firmware. It was the correct one. So then I decided i will put back the original benq firmware on the system. I do that and everything is back to normal. I have flashed many drives before and never had this problem. Is this a new deterrent. I don't believe that since the drive was manufactured on 6/29/2007. Can some one shed some light on this please. Thank You very much for your time.

Was this console previously opened?
The benq may not be the original drive for that mobo.  Open the dumped firmware in 360 firmware toolbox and see if it is spoofed as a different drive.

Thank very much for your help. You were right the cracked firmware was spoofed to a 64930C, which is the wrong firmware version. Thank You very much for your time. Have a wonderful day.
