I have a console of a mates here

its a corona V2 with 4GB NAND with a newer 1175 liteon 165 drive

i got a TX LTU PCB, and successfully managed to RGH the machine, got CPU key, DVD key and nand extracts to build a LTU fw image as per the tutorial.

flashed the PCB and installed the drive and all games seemed to be booting normally specifically XGD3 games such as black ops 2 booted with no issues.

mate takes it away then reports back that his backup and original of GTA 4 will not boot saying its the incorrect region.

why would this be? the retail disc is pal bought from a local store, and he is backing it up correctly as the backup boots on his other consoles and others xboxes.

how can the region be wrong? am i doing something wrong in JF when building the image?

every other disc he has boots fine, except for this one retail and backup of the same game

the nand dumos i got from the machine were identical of course, and i wrote and re-read the final image write to be sure, it was the same.

confused?

yes both originals and backups of recent games boot normally, only this one copy of GTA 4.

cant get my head around it at all.

perhaps flash a new retail NAND built from JR?

close this thread

upon closer inspection the console turns out to be a NTSC/US region console, everything is functioning correctly, its not booting PAL region games.

facepalm!
