* Note * This is to play Backups of games i own only * Note *
Hello there, i think someone on here , or maybe more, have it so there xbox 360 can play burnt or backed up games, ive been looking into this, and by my understanding – u have to flash your Xbox 360’s DVD drive, i no what type i have, its the Toshiba-Samsung – so id need the Firmware for this type of drive for my xbox 360 right?
I have seen this:
Click MeDo i just plug a USB drive into this with the flashing software on it?
Thanks.
Just realised you cant modify the firmware with a usb pen into the device, u need to connect it up to your pc with a Sata cable, then i assume its just a case of applying firmware that way
Also be advised that Microsoft have been banning peoples Xbox live accounts for modifying the hard drive firmware to play ‘Backed Up’ games. Also If your machine is still in Warranty then you’ll invalidate it by flashing the firmware.
Although this guide should explain everything if you still want to flash the firmware 😉
http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox360-tutorials.php?p=0|4|5|9|#9Been on there a few times mate, i was just wandering at what stage the Xeno comes in, and what stages it cuts out, im assuming it just saves me constantly opening up the 360 for future firmware updates, and it also has options regarding HD transfers from 360 to PC
Also, yes, opening the case will invalidate the Warranty, etc etc, and Xbox live isnt picking up on the latest Ixtreme firmware which stops backups which are not correctly patched from booting – but obviously, it may change in the future, as it has done in the past – but so far, that version is safe 🙂
Lucky you having a samsung
I’ve had my samsung flashed for moons, I updated a couple of months ago to Ixtreme 1.2 and I’ve been able to play online, buy things from marketplace and download demo’s etc
yeah i hear the hitachis used to be a pain, so the samsung is all good, yeah i wanted to do mine yonks ago however the live banning put me off, wasnt quite as secure or stealthed as current version, but with the latest Ixtreme uv got more peace of mind that u wont lose access to live, may get another 360 just for the purpose of flashing and modding out,
Hitachis are still a pain.. that last flash was fine, it only became unfine when microghey decided to ban people, up until then it was great.. Ixtreme is fine, until microghey decide to ban people using that, then another one will come out and it will carry on and on and on etc etc
Its a vicious circle
oh for sure, thats why im considering just getting asnother and setting up an account with that and enjoying back ups with that, surely – if you are actually souly using back ups – does it still break the terms and conditions (ignoring the warranty) – or does it just not fringe the copyright laws but still effects the T&C’s with ur 360?
lmao.. F off with your backup talk! As if you’d shell out near £300 to play backups of games you already own when you could just play the original game on your none flashed console
you have the right to own a backup of your game and play it, but that wont stop you being banned from xbox live if you are caught with a flashed box.. if thats what you meant…
I only used the original back up term to prevent any problems on the forum, i.e. future Legits.
And yes.
