Hi guys,
my ck3i and unlocked replacement pcb just arrived.
I only took the xbox slim apart but didnt do anything else to it. The hardware nor the software are altered. Now i want to start replacing the pcb and flash the drive.
1. Should I update to the latest dashboard before doing anything? I currently run that xd3g dashboard 13599.
2. Is there a guide on how to exactly replace the pcb?
Hardware not software guide..
3. What is the difference between "Orig-0225.bin" or "Orig-0225u.bin"?
4. As i understood it I always have to revert to stock firmware before an Dashboard update. Stock firmware is the original dvd drive xbox firmware (unaltered). That is done to avoid a ban. Then after the dashboard update I have to relash iXtreme to the dvd drive. Never ever update dashboard without reverting to stock firmware.
The stock firmware is in my case the "Orig-0225.bin" or "Orig-0225u.bin" right?
5. Before I take off the original pcb i need to backup the Dummy.bin according to ubergeeks guide, now is there more that i can backup before i take off the pcb? key.db or something i read once...
6. Are the key files stored on the pcb or the drive itself?
7. When done, can i play non XD3G games? I wont play XD3G until the dvd recorder firmware drops.
thanks i hope to start today with your help
