Yep, that’s right. C4eva just a few days ago, Friday actually, released the first custom firmware on the Xbox 360 that will load your backups. Now, before you get all excited, you need to know that theirs three different Slim Drives out there. The firmware that C4eva released is for the 9504 drives only. The next firmware that is nearing completion is 0225, both of which are LiteOn drives.
Now, before you rip your drive and try to flash it, first, download the JungleFlasher PDF tutorial. Use it! Before doing anything flashing related, make sure you under fully what you’re doing. Next, you’ll need to download the Slim 9504 firmware.
Just a friendly reminder that C4eva and Teamjungle has just release and updating version of the LT firmware.
Official release of C4E’s iXtreme LT+ v1.1
- Supports Benq and Liteon Drives (74850, 83850V1, 83850V2, 93450)
- xbox 1 backup support (iXtreme compatible, DVD9 only)
- improved pfi support
iXtreme LT + firmware has been released for the BenQ and LiteOn Xbox 360 drives. This release does not support the upcoming Xbox 360 slim drive, that will be coming shortly.
Official release of C4E’s iXtreme LT+
- Supports Benq and Liteon Drives (74850, 83850V1, 83850V2, 93450)
- Optimized PFI code to accommodate AP25 SS data
- Defeats current AP25 protection
- Protects console from logging AP25 violation
- Full disc stealth used by default
- Waveless booting, disc images are assumed to be correct!
- Split-Vid used as default
If booting an AP25 title without AP25 SS game will not boot but will still be protected from logging AP25 violation on current dash 2.0.12611.0
If LT+ encounters an unknown AP25 challenge, game will not boot but console will still be protected from logging AP25 violation on current dash 2.0.12611.0
AP25 SS are region specific for region locked games (Current Example NFS: Hot Pursuit is both PAL and NTSC – 2 different AP25 Patches)
If you boot the AP25 titles without LT+ you will probably be flagged for a ban.
You cannot spoof a different model drive as that can now be detected. With this release of LT+ you HAVE to have an original Benq or Liteon.
LT+ for slim 9504 is next followed by LT+ for slim 0225
Thanks go to Team Jungle for their hard work and efforts in the development process.
Thanks go to Team Xecuter for their generous support and input to this project.
Just when Microsoft though they could beat the Xbox 360 modding scene, C4Eva strikes back with a proof of concept video showing his Xbox 360 Slim running a backup. What does this mean? We’ll, this means we’re all pretty close to being able to run backups on the new Xbox Slim in no time folks.
What allows the Xbox 360 Slim to run backups? The ability to run backups is through flashing the DVD drive with custom firmware, known as LT Lite Touch Firmware. This will allow users out there to either make legal backups of their games or to download backups.
Team Jungle has just tweeted that the Xbox 360 firmware for the Samsung drives, is now complete. This is great news folks. I don’t know if they will even attempt to update the hitachi firmware to LT Lite Touch, I guess only time will tell.
Folks, the time is here. If you have a BenQ drive for you Xbox 360, then here you go. BenQ LT Lite Touch firmware has just been released from TeamJungle. As with this, also comes a new version of Jungle flasher, version JF v0.1.72(101S).
