Hi!

First of all I must say thank you to everybody involved in this forum, I have gained a lot of knowledge through the years reading threads in here. Up to date I have found answers for every question I've had. Not tonight.
For many years I have used the connectivity kit hooking my xbox to my pc. I recently bought a blaster 360 kit, for easier flashing. And switching to this I really messed it up. I did not see the part where it says you need to keep your video cable connected while flashing. So after flashing to stock firmware, I did the manual dashboard update. And when reconnecting and flashing the LT+ 2.0 for Hitatchi 47, the xbox powered during flashing.

Here's some facts:
Xbox 360 Hitachi GDR3120L 0047
I used JF v0.1.90 Beta
I have a dump of the ofw, the drive key, and a log from the failed flash.
It powered off after flashing eight sectors.
When i connect the Hitatchi now, it is recognised by JF.
When trying to flash I get the error message: Unlock failed.
When trying to restore to stock I get the error message: Ram poke failed.

Is there any hope of rescuing this drive? I am pretty stuck and don't know what to do, so if any of you guys have a suggestion I would be very grateful!

Thank you!

unfortunately the only way to recover the drive now is to remove the chip from the dvdrom daughterboard and reprogram it externally.

easier solution is to source another 47 drive or even just the mainboard, and flash your key to it, then update it to LT2.0

blaster is shit btw!!

Thank you for your response! I must say I was hoping there was a way of "forcing" a flash, as long as JF was able to see it and report info about it. Well, I am getting as deserved for not researching thoroughly before initiating.

If I'm able of getting hold of another 47 drive, can I connect it to JF and read my OFW from my bricked drive to the new one? And with that my key? Will that be what is called spoofing, or is this safe when it comes to playing on LIVE?

Cheers

Just get a pcb boars off eBay and flash your key onto it.

Easy enough to find.

If you get a hitachi pcb your as safe as you can be for live, there is no 100% safe option for live

connect the new PCB/drive, and get it into modeb

then choose the option to manual spoof, then enter the key from the broken drive.

the key will be changed, then you need to power cycle the drive, enter modeb again then flash LT2.0.

try using free flash , this will try and flash the hitachi without the usual jungleflasher hitachi safety features
free flash is in the jf hitachi tab and is only selectable in hitachi expert mode.
ctrl and f8 will activate hitachi expert mode.

@Gazc0igne & @crazygoldfish:
Thanks for the tip and info. I have ordered a used Hitachi 0047 PCB off ebay, and will try it out when it arrives.
Just so I am sure  what to do; first I go to the Firmware 32. Do I load my old firmware dump under the source area, is that enough? Or should I also load my old firmware dump under the target area?
And then I go to the Hitachi page and hit manual spoof?
Sorry for asking all this newbie questions, but I don't feel like making more errors.

@boneym:
Thank you for the tip. However I was not lucky, it says: UnLock Failed
JF is able to read drive revision, drive key, firmware version and more. But not able to flash it. Here is a copy of the log:

Short update:

Got an used Hitachi PCB from eBay for GBP 2.99 +p.p. Arrived today and successfully flashed my old key onto it. Updated to LT2.0 and my XBOX is up and running again.
Thanks for tipping me about this procedure, and all the advices!

Cheers
