Quick Question About Flashing........
« on: May 01, 2009, 08:53:00 AM »

I'm about to flash my Liteon today with firmware 1.51 that supports the wave 3 games.  Is there any new firmware out there or anything else Microsoft is going to do (wave 4 or whatever it may be called) that I should wait and flash it later?  I am paying someone that's why I ask.  i don't want to pay today, and then something new comes out and have to pay again.

TBH, if you can wait, I would wait for the 1.6 release. the 1.6 fw supports wave 3, SS V2, 0800 (for ripping games if you dont have a kreon drive) and also utilizes the "one-shot bootloader" (allows booting of game disks that dont normally pass the strict checks of the FW), where as 1.51 only supports wave 3, thats it.
