View Full Version : possible Wave 4 on it way

From a couple of forums, there's a new video partition on it way out, Wave 4. So again that means, those on 1.6 will either have to use the active .iso for one time boot, await new firmware or can downgrade to 1.51.
1.51 has lower security on built in so does not check the video partition to see what wave it is. 1.6 has strict Wave 3 compliance
NFO for 1.6 here : http://www.xbins.org/nfo.php?file=xboxnfo1712.nfo
This is now confirmed so can expect titles such as Modern Warfare 2, Tekken 6 to be wave 4. The first game to see the new wave is Cars o Roma

Its all true ! But if its working on 1.5 that means they have gone backwards some what meaning that abgx360 can alter the security or Video sectors by patching the game ! possably no need for a new firmware ..... if its more backward compliant than forwards, it should not be an issue.
Here is a fix for any wave 4 games .....(WAVE 4) iXtreme 1 6 activate iso rar file
1 Burn 1.6 activate iso to disk
2 load 1.6 activate iso disk onto xbox360
3 let it load & then eject
4 load Game (Wave 4)
5 PLAY ...
Download (WAVE 4) iXtreme 1 6 activate iso rar file

No they have not gone backwards. 1.51 was released when after wave 3 was brought out as a tempory fix. 1.6 was the proper fix and would not let hybrids boot ( wave 3 games patched to wave 2 ) 1.51 has no or little built in security checks hence thats why they boot up ok. Again you should run your games through ABGX to be certain.

looks like l will have to knock out a few activate iso disc's for my m8s we all know where this is going wave 3 wave 4 wave 5 and so one . can this be burned to the first layer or spread over both ?
cheers

Unsure as never used 1. You could downgrade to ix 1.51 for time being. If its needed will grab it out and upload.

HAwks game was the first wave 3 game. Think you burn the active iso that comes with your firmware file. Pop it in 360 for 1 time boot of games that dont boot.
To save doin this simply reflash to 1.51 for time being. But be aware that iso's should definatly be checked through and passed via ABGX

my friend told me if i use the activate iso disc and go on live u get booted is this true ?
cunny
14th October, 2009, 07:50 PM
very possible that you could get a ban yes as it desables the security checks of the firmware in order for the game it dont recognise to boot
cunny
14th October, 2009, 07:59 PM
yea l only have one that was fixed to 1.51 when wave 3 first came out , must of binned the first bad releases ?

With you now lol. Your xbox with 1.51 on should be fine until new firmware is released.

no but the liteon 1.6 orig was repacked (hence the repack in name) due to it actually being 1.51 or 1.5 cant remember. All other benq/samsung was fine as 1.6.

14th October, 2009, 09:52 PM
so really then , go back to 1.51 always wait till ABGX has verified and even when it verified wave 4 u can use as safely as 1.61 or ever the new 1.71 lol
cunny
14th October, 2009, 09:57 PM
i would either go back to 1.51 or wait until new firmware released. Also no 1.51 for newer liteon 83850C revision. Only 1.6 so 1 boot mode or patch the game if dont care about live.

l have heard that wave 4 will not play on 1.51 now , so u will need the activation iso and 1.61 till they make 1.71

Apparently ONLY hitachi 1.51 formware will boot wave 4 games due to extra checks the other drives do.
Also IXTREME 1.61 is being worked on.... As always will keep you all upto date...

I have a ben q drive with IX1.6 on it. I downloaded forza 3 and it works. will i get banned if i play it on xbox live? Should i use the activate.iso or just wait on a newer firmware?
Fspiders
17th October, 2009, 11:30 AM
Forza 3 is wave 3... Why you ask? Well seems MS are using this title to ban hammer pre release forza going online.
So don't go online with this before release date!
bigfella35uk
17th October, 2009, 04:33 PM
Well first post so I'll say Hi all. Back to Forza 3. Why oh why would anyone want to play a game on Luive before the actual release date. That's just a sure way to get banned..

hi every1,
there is a lot of talk about this new wave 4 game havin the nxe 8498 dashboard update. If i download this game and play it will i get the dashboard update if so is it safe to get update the dashboard
I no i should wait till the release date to play this game but i just wanna know if the update is safe and not a way to catch people with modded xboxes i have liteon fw 1.6
ps. sorry if this is a noobish question i am still new to this.

So all i need is the activate.iso disk before i play every game that is wave 4? Will the risk of me being banned even higher than normal?
Super Thanks!

Not if your games are verified by ABGX.

Even if i stealth patch them with abgx, and then i put in the activate.iso disk it wont increase my chance of being banned, is that correct?
