Well my EA Sports Active and EA Sports Active 2 work straight of so I don't know what you had to do to fix yours?
As for allowing or not allowing disc updates I'm assuming you have PriiLoader 0.7 installed? Sorry that hasn't been mentioned on here because only one user has posted a sysCheck as requested so he had a PM. PriiLoader will stop online and disc updates. No ripped game should ask you to update.
You can click the Thanks button under the posts that helped you.
