I see there has been more rising conern on how to flash the samsung correctly with the mtkflash. Many people, as I did, have run into no drive detected, or the PORT MASTER SLAVE (whatever) and nothing happens.


Here is your resolution: Try to flash after each suggestion. Do not do 2, unless you have done 1, and do not do 3 unless you have done 2... and so on. Each step builds on eachother, without doing the previous, you might as well pay me 60 bucks to do it lol


1) Make sure RAID is disabled in your bios. There should be an option somewhere.

2) Keep your xbox connected to your computer, but do not turn it on until you are at the command prompt.

3) Try to run the command mtkflash.exe r /sata /m orig.bin instead (do not use if your sata is onboard... meaning not a pci card) If this is sucessful you'll have to use the command mtkflash.exe w /sata /m xtreme30.bin to flash.

4) If you have anything else in your computer that is SATA, disconnect it (harddrive), except your xbox 360. (keep your sata devices unplugged for the rest of this, once we get mtkflash working, then plug it in and see if it works.

5) Your mtkflash.exe needs editing. If you disconnected your harddrive, plug it back in and go to start>run>"msinfo32.exe" if it brings up microsoft help and support, you're going to have to rename a file to an extension of .nfo and try running it. Now go to components>storage>scsi. and you should see something like this...

Name Serial ATA Controller
Manufacturer
Status OK
PNP Device ID PCI\VEN_2211&DEV_4433&SUBSYS_31491106&REV_80\3&61AAA01&0&78
I/O Port 0x00006655-0x00006662

Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\driver.sys (5.1.2600.201, 74.63 KB (76,416 bytes), 5/15/2006 7:00 AM)

Now the bits you are going to have to replace in your mtkflash.exe with hexedit are going to be this "11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88" You're msifo32 will look different, but the numbers in those positions are to be entered into mtkflash in that order.

EXAMPLE

Name Serial ATA Controller

My string would be 06 11 49 32 00 FD 00 F1 and thats would would have to go into my mtkflash.exe.

Now how to insert it. open up mtkflash.exe with your hexeditor, and hit ctrl+g and goto line "b3d6" and replace what ever is there and whatever follows with 06 11 49 32 00 FD 00 F1. So you will have replaced 8 pairs with your own numbers, all of which start on b3d6 and end at b3dd.
Save and close, put that mtk on your disk, and go flash.

Hope this helps
Now you can flash.

then ask the mod. If your sata cards show up in ide, then you're not going to be able to get your xbox 360 working with mtkflash. Go purchase a via vt6421L card, they're cheap (10 dollars).

Yeah i did flash before but i kept getting the no drive detected message it was by fluke it read my onboard sata. VT8237 chip. I edited mtkflash as per your tutorial and still get no drive detected. Also i've read a few forums and they seem to suggest that i should get a message asking me to select what channel to use but i do not get that message i usually when it flashed pressed 1 quickly after hitting enter. But that doesn't seem to work. Also i have sata bootrom enabled in the bios could this be the problem?? TIA Ronnie

keep sata enabled, make sure raid is disabled.

if your chip is onboard, type mtkflash r /m orig.bin , try turning your xbox on at boot, or on at command prompt

specific hardware configurations require a different combination of my tips, it takes a lot of tweaking to get it to work.

ie.

i have to turn my xbox on at command prompt, and it only works with mtkflash.exe r /sata /m orig.bin. but thats just me.

Hi ronnie,

Sorry to bother you with this, i know by now you must be going nuts with these questions.

I did what your guide said and it worked perfectly for an onboard sata from one of the PCs at my work, but when i do the same thing for my home pc it just doesnt work. There is no sata or "legacy" setting, as some people call it, i took all IDEs out of the board and still no drive detected. i tried turning on the xbox before turning on pc and then after prompt (that's how it works at work) and it doesn't work.

So sorry, but i must ask for your help. This is what i got (It says RAID but it's the NON-RAID card, just in case):

I modified the mtkflash with 06 11 49 32 00 e2 00 e4 but it doesn't work. I'm wondering if i did something wrong.

Please help ! thanks !

I had same problem with onboard sata got the port crap. What i did was in bios if your sata bootrom is enabled disable it sounds odd but it worked on my asus with a via8237 sata chipset. Left xbox disconnected from the pc and boot to the dos disk typed in mtkflash w /m x32.bin powered on 360 waited 10 seconds hit enter the as the disk floppy was seeking i put the sata connector onto the mast port on the board got the menu asking for master or slave selected master and bob's your uncle. I will point out that at no stage did i get the men asking to select what port i wanted before i did this. Hope this is a help.

Thanks for this post,
In conjuction with this and one on Xboxhacker my problem of drive not detected was due to my sata adaptor being onboard and ran by an IDE controller...with an Nforce 410 chip on an ASROCK board.

The modified mtkflash says its compatable with the 410 chip but I think it must have been set on another motherboard as it did not work for me untill I did step 5 above and put my data in via the hex editor.

So Step 5 fixed it for me.

Thanks Ronnie ;-)
