    So um... do i have the latest firmware?

    Sorry if this is a real noob question, but I'm clueless with these...



    I'm using the activate ISO disk to play the games I have ... Is there a newer version out or possibly a newer version coming out soon? because I wanna stick with my ISO disk for as long as I can because there's no way of me flashing it for newer firmware anytime soon.


    Also, can I play Fable 3, MOH, COD, (latest games basically) with my activate ISO disk?

      Sorry I don't understand. You are asking if there is newer firmware but if there is you won't be using it?

      There is later firmware but it depends on which dvd drive you have.

        Well I'm running games using the activate ISO disk ... Which is good enough for me because I'm not capable nor do I want to flash the console again so that I can play all the waves without any problems .... I had my console flashed in another country so flashing it to newer firmware would be impossible for me.... If that makes sense?

        Well the main point of my question is if I can pretty much play all the current waves/upcoming waves just only using my activate iso disk ... I dont go online with the 360 either (Unless i wanna download DLC), so stealth checks and what not are kinda moot for me.

          Why is firmware country based ?

            Because I wouldnt have the first clue to pull off something like reflashing or upgrading the firmware :P

            And no one here provides that kind of service here either.

            I'm more than happy using the activation disk so I'd rather use that method for as long as I can.

                  The only way to tell what firmware you have would either to ask the person who flashed the drive or do a full dump from the drive. Wait a while for the LT+ to be released, have the drive reflashed or start reading up on how to do it yourself

                  As your using the Activate disk to boot the drive into non stealth check, its going to be pre LT firmware, more than likely ix 1.6/1.61 as this feature was removed for LT to keep it as close as to the original firmware as possible.

                  If your not using live, i would put a non stealth on the drive, this wont care about wave of the games and will boot anything. Just see what drive you have by taking the box apart and how to flash the drive. Its really not that hard.
