Then i tried it, it does not seem to work. PC sees the drive, mtkflash flashes it but Eject button does not work.
I spoofed the drive and flashed it does not work. It is a brand new samsung ms28.
Then i took the drive of my friends 3R dead Xbox360 's Samsung Ms25, and hit the eject button , it does not work either.
I guess there is somethig with the mainboard, what should i do?
Xbox360 boots fine, there is no problem just dvd does not work....

hitachi is totally dead... I cant do anything with Hitachi. Hitachi is 47d.
it's bricked.. otherwise known as stuck in `Recovery Mode'.
You need to have someone remove the flashchip off the DVD controller
board and flash it in a programmer..
I should have my programmer in within the next few days which will enable me
to repair bricked Hitachi drives from anyone who needs the service done..

But if he does not have the original drive key and if the current key on the drive is missing or corrupt there still wont be much that can be done.

How did you put the Hitachi into modeb? Two wire method? Could you have put the dvd power into the Hitachi drive upside down?

If you've truely burnt the tray status lead from the south bridge, then no, it likely can't be fixed. I havent done a whole lot of research on the subject but I have a board that has exactly the same issue. Hitachi was put in modeB using the two wire method. The two wires were put into the wrong pin placement and it burnt leads on both the Hitachi mn103 (panasonic controller) and the south bridge. No matter what i did, i couldnt get the console to eject with multiple different drives. It would boot media if i manually opened the tray, put in the disc, closed the tray, then started the system with it in. Other than that, it was a no go.

did you try the 2 wire hack on the sammy?
when you power up the unit the center power led on your 360 will blink right? and will not eject.... it sounds like you made a bad bin file and flashed the sammy drive wrong.. you should get your sammy back into mod-b and reflash it..
its very hard to brick a sammy by flashing.. if you have problems getting it to mod-b use the dos16 program I have unbricked 5 sammys that was just click yes to resend the codes to the drive and then flash it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pop.gif)
