I have been reading a lot in the forums and online, but I have a question that I cannot find an answer to. I bought my 360 used an not working, I now have it working just fine. I am getting read to flash my drive but I still need to get a data port on my PC. Anyway I popped in a back up Xbox1 game and it identified the game, but I could not play was as a I do not had a HDD yet. Since it recognised the backup does it mean that it is flashed already?

The best way to check is to dump the firmware with JungleFlasher - does the console have HDMI at all?

You should really open it up and take a look at the drive model.

It has an HDMI port and a Lite-on drive. The unit was opened previously as was the drive. There have been no physical alterations to the drive or anything else. The are 2 black marker dots on 2 of the wires on the power cable wires near the connector on the drive.

Since you say it "recognises" a backup game disc, it sounds like the drive is indeed flashed.

You should look into reverting it back to stock so you can update the dashboard version to 15574 and flash LT+ 3.0.

It is already at 15574. I will have to pickup HDD or a blank DVD-DL to vesite it is flashed.

This 360 was in a pile of units that were supposed to be RROD all I could find wrong was the DVD drive would stick if a disk was not installed. I fixed that will help from the fine people on this site.
