Hi folks, needing a little advice from someone a bit more knowledgable than myself, been flashing 360's for a couple of years now and never had a prob until now, i aquired an xbox with Fw 83850C, hadnt flashed one since the last wave ban so i though it would b the same procedure, but when reading the new JF tut i noticed i didn't need the probe and that the procedure was different from the last version, i checked to make sure that it was v1 and didnt need soldering and started the process, and to cut a long story short i made a hash of the power cycling and seem to have erased everything, tried all the usual fixes but nothing seems to work, im sure i read somewhere that with a bit of soldering, the word NAND coes to mind for some reason, anyway can this xbox be sorted, im willing to pay going rate, any info much appreciated guys

You can read the nand chip and get the key for the drive from that which can be recovered in Dos.
The 8 series is actually quite easy to flash and the new JF gives step by step instructions.
Tray half open then fully open without power cycle to get the dummy.bin.
Im guessing you never got the dummy.bin but i cant see why not as you do not use the Erase option till after you have this and spoofed firmware.
There is a fella on gumtree in the glasgow area that can recover the key from the boards. I suggest you have a look there and give him a call.
I would estimate about ?40 to recover key and flash drive back to working status.sigpic

If the motherboard is jtag able (compatable dash) then you can dump the nand, read the dvd drive key from the key vault.
If the drive is dead i am pretty sure you wont be able to recover the fw off it. I think your best bet would be posting on the team xecuter site, theres a few guys on there, uk based, who do repairs ect on drives.sigpic

did you manage to get the key from it or did you just erase it straight away?Comment
