you do need a conn kit and probe to dump files or you can make one yourself
you cannot flash a liteon without dumping files first
you still need to hook up via comm/serial port or usb port to dump files
try jungleflasher and read the tutorial

So unless you want to go buy a new console for some reason I would suggest you do more research and read everything on the subject of flashing a Liteon before you even think about opening your console. When you are done reading everything do it a few more times until you know 100% of what you are doing.

you need some form of kit hommade or bought to dump key how would you propose to do the r707 without it

can you guys tell me why you need to dump the key and files to flash it?
why does it let you skip that part and go directly to the flashing part then in dosflash/iprep?
i read on another website that you can flash the lite-on firmware without dumping but if you want to reflash with a newer firmware then you need the keys and files
is that true?
thanks
...and does anyone know if that via sata pci card will work with my lite-on drive?
edit: i believe i fucked up the drive because i went ahead and tried flashing it before dumping it and it erased the drive but then said mtk vendor intro failed and didnt get any further than that... am i out of luck? did i erase the firmware and leave no chance of extracting the keys and everything now?...shit... hehe
If you don't dump the files how do you expect to get the drive key?
Well it seems you decided to brake your console anyway. mtk vendor intro failed means you did not power cycle the drive before you tried to flash it. But unfortunately that also means you probably already erased your drive.
It is one thing to feel bad for someone that comes in here after braking their console and feel sorry for them. It is something entirely different if you come here and know what you was going to do will brake your console and you go ahead and do it anyway.
Pathetic!

Any sata will work dont need that card with jf now need to dump key ect before flash dont do without or you will have meda center jf esy to use read guide before do anything and backup fles off drive at least 3 times better safe then sorry you need drive half open ,ck3 onboard sata and jungle flasher takes like 3 minutes to flash drive error probaly beacuse you have drive shut .i used ich9 for my liteon and so intel obv works with them
you need some form of kit hommade or bought to dump key how would you propose to do the r707 without it

You are not only stuck with a bricked drive but you are also stuck with a BRICKED CONSOLE!

ok question... if it said it "erased" the drive, does that mean i can't get the keys? i'll try seeing if it sees it in windows but i think in my bios it wont detect it unless i have SATA/ATA auto detect on, and if that's on my OS won't boot... it still detects the drive in the BIOS... the xbox is able to close and open the tray, but it doesn't read normal xbox games.... so does that mean it's bricked? or maybe there's still a chance at extracting the keys...
the bottom line is, i need the connectivity kit in order to get the keys right? there's no other way??
thanks

Still wondering why you went against the good advice given out to you. Rushing in head first only succeeds in costing you both time and money.
i actually did all this last night before making this post and getting the advice... so, i wish i read more and made this post first... thanks for the advice though

Correct you cant get the keys without some form of connectivity kit. Have a read through this -

You are not only stuck with a bricked drive but you are also stuck with a BRICKED CONSOLE!
why is the console bricked? it seemed to have boot up with the dvd drive in it...i could at least play games off of a hard drive with the console? i just cant play any games with the dvd drive, so again, why do you say the console is bricked? dashboard worked fine after putting the "bricked" drive back in
Post by: run187 on May 07, 2009, 11:56:00 AM
your drive is FUCKED if your key dosent match the board
you must now either buy a new 360 that you sholdent of needed had you waited or hope your not a total dick and wiped drive in future
does it play games or just dvds should it still play games it is not fucked if not you have a expensive media center
save that video i posted follow it for next drive ..

how are you gona play games off hard drive without working dvd drive my friend everyone here would like to be able to play games off hard drive without game that would encourage piracy which microsoft dont much care for
the dashboard would work regardless that is stored in onboard flash on main board
if you can not play any games and dont have the key and can not get the key via the medium which i said or any other then sir that drive is a paper weight or a expensive dvd drive
you could send back to microsoft ask them to repair if they can at cost to yourself beacuse you have lost your
warranty or someone may be able to extract key from drive via tsop which i doubt as it will most probaly be blank
we all make mistakes here but most of us would take the time to read the advice offered before hand
and not just jump in willy fn nilly ..

Lets not get hostile here! Just perhaps you should proof read your posts or get an integrated browser spell checker.

UPDATE: the drive does still read normal games... so it appears the drive never actually flashed anything... if the drive reads normal games does that mean its still able to extract the keys and everything?? thanks!
It would certainly appear so. Now before doing anything else get yourself a connectivity kit and learn to use Jungle Flasher.

yes if it plays games your still in luck you should be able to get the keys off it now invest in a ck3 or maximus
as you will need something ike that to connect a probe
http://team-xecuter.com/ck3/
http://www.360xtract...rpro/index.html
there are probaly other kits
you need probe for lite on to dump key first time in wont work without i belive dont need it for upgrading ..
,whos being hostile im trying to help a guy not make what is a very easy mistake to make if the drive wotn play games it is as i put fucked there is not a simpler word to describe really but it turns out it still works so no harm done i think also that jungle guide misses out a bit about the drive needeing to be half open
im english and swear alot and i cant spell or type worth a shit but at no point online would i ever try to be hostile ,and my keyboard sucks
anyways glad the drive works

Oh dear oh dear just reading through this thread and you had a lucky escape. You also dont seem to read all the replies properly asking the same question over and over. Why dont you play safe and get someone who knows what they are doing to flash it for you?!
guys, i've actually flashed 3 drives so far... 1 samsung, 2 Benqs, just never dealt with a Lite-On...
i ordered the CK3 Pro and the Probe,
I believe I can handle it...
Am I new to this, yes... but i'm tech savvy so please don't jump to conclusions.

you asked for help and then almost ruined the 360... you should know about the unique key if you flashed 3 before.. go sit in the corner
