so i had a sammy with lt+1.0 i decided to flash it to stock with issues (will list below)and update my xbox to the latest dash then i converted my samsung ms28 to lt+2.01

so my issues
while writing stock my jungleflasher froze thus leading me into a bad flash so i used dosflash 32 to flash the stock fw with the key saved to it to the dvd drive it worked and i went on my way to updating to latest dash

after on the latest dash i flashed my sammy to lt+2.01 but got disk unreadable for burned games and originals so i assumed bad laser i put a new one in from my hitachi 79 and still got disk unreadable for backups but for originals play dvd so i decided that the firmware was bad but now i switched back to stock and my drive still reads original stock games as play dvd

so whats my issue here i have tried all the troubleshooting i could do has anyone else has this issue

So here's a math question, boys and girls.

Is 16197 HIGHER or LOWER than 13146?

did you by any chance dump the firmware flash to stock and then update from before 13146 to a later dash? if you did you should dump the firmware again after the update else jf will select the wrong firmware for you automatically which is what i think has happened here. you can manually select the right firmware too, its lt2.01 for sammy

alright i just got back my original question was answered now i got a new one i flashed to lt+2.01 and now my games read all but my xgd3 backups i have tried a pot tweak did not work i reverted the pot tweak so what can cause my drive not to read xgd3.. here what i was tring to do so my brother who loves racing games wanted me to buy nfsmw well i wanted to play it to so i opened the fresh disk read it with stock and it worked then i used my 0800 benq v3 firmware flashed benq and copied the game and verified in agbx now i sent the game to him and burned my game to verbatim 0-300-00 mkm at 2.4x and have a k probe result of pi max - 98 pi avrage 4 pif max - 3 average .15 so overall a great burn but my drive still wont read it so what the heck is happening

so you no longer have the original game as you sent it your brother so you now have the back up copy ?

think the backup needs to burnt onto a DL disc to work...more stuffing around to what its worth, just use the original if it works :)
