I'm not sure, but I would say most likely the 78/79 revisions since they were the latest revisions and were way different from the older ones.

[elcappo]

we are all already confirmed that 46 and 47 hitachis dont have ap 2.5 but since i readed some cases of ppl with hitachi 78 that claimed they are playing fable 3 after update... then...
can someone confirms if hitachi 59dj have AP 2.5 or not? (cause 59dj is older than 78)

[DrDuckman]

I am playing Fable 3 with a Hitachi 78FX, but AC:B does not work.

I have 59dj with iextreme 1.51 or whatever for offline only, haven't connected to live on this console in a year or two so don't know if banned or not (use another non-mod for online/XBLA play).

X value was clean in Xval w/ 9199 dash.  Installed Kinect dash downloaded from MS website, tried Fable 3, tried ACB. X value didn't change after any of those actions - still identical to first X value I wrote down so still clean.

Here is mine....


Hitachi 79 (fl), non-banned xbox, running ix1.6, latest dash update got via Live.


Plays Fable III and , AC:B backups perfect. XVAL still shows as clean.

I'm going to come back in a month's time when all this is sorted out...

trying to get this out to as many places as possible....this is info for ppl w/ a hitachi 78/79 that have had problems loading ACB or NFS (if you haven't had any problems then you probably did a flash drive update for your system rather than a disc update)

i did a disc install of the new dashboard weeks ago and haven't had a problem with any of the games (fable included) but a threw in ACB and was having the same issues as everyone else.

eventually i read that someone had success playing ACB (with a hitachi 79) installing the new dash off a flash drive. so i tried that and it WORKED. so if anyone with a hitachi 78/79 does a reinstall of the new dash off a drive you SHOULD be able to play the games...

good luck....pass it on

I can play ACB with my 78FK on the latest dash(obviously) .. and it is crap.

Mine updated from xbox live, not the disk

Xbox 360 Elite with Hitachi 79FL drive:

- Updated via XBox live (before the drive was flashed with iXtreme).
- Console is not banned.
- AP2.5 backups work perfectly.
- SecData still clean.

yea Ive read alot of places that the update is incompletea on the disc and if u update via xbl or flash drive u should be fine with any hitachi drive

[zach2132]

Sorry if this is a newb question, but I have a 79fl drive, with ixtreme 1.51 flashed on it. I have not updated to the new dash yet, because of being scared. Are people getting banned with these drives with this FW flashed on it?

Is it safe for me to update, is there a best way to update(such as flash drive, or xbl)?

From what I have read, it is safe to update, but have to be careful with new AP2.5 games.

Just looking for some answers, thanks guys.

you should be fine if you update using a flash drive or xbl..... as of now it looks like all hitachis dont do the ap2.5 check

[mcgough]

sweet, it sounds like my already banned xbox with its original hitachi 78fk wont be affected by this AP2.5 stuff

Tried updating on my 79 from an ACB disc and that did not work. I am going to try to update from CD/USB today and let you guys know.

Thanks for the great info!
