To Explain it to those that are new to it all:
There is a DVD drive inside your 360, the one that spins your Disc and plays your games. There is software on this DVD drive that controls what the 360 is allowed to play, and what is not
There is no need to a modchip to be put in your 360, and this software, with the right hardware, can be erased, and new firmware can be put on.
Over the last couple of years, Microsoft have changed the DVD drive type a couple of times. Everytime they do, there is a couple month wait until the hacked firmware becomes available.
Q. If there a modchip involved?
A. Nope. With the Xbox 360 there is no real advantage in having a modchip. It will void your warranty, cost you more
Q. So what is actually done then?
A. We read the firmware off your DVD Drive. We "hack it" and flash it back on
Q. So can't I do it myself then?
A. If you really want to try it out, we sell the tools to go it. But it will cost you more in hardware for the parts needed, and its not such a noob friendly activity. The wrong firmware or the wrong drivers can brick your drive. You cannot simply swap your DVD drive over - as each dvd drive is locked to your 360 with a special "KEY". If you fail to extract this KEY from your DVD drive your 360 is useless.
Q. What Firmware do you use?
A. Commodore 4 Eva’s (c4eva) ixtreme firmware. What ever the latest is at the time
Q. Does my console need to be opened? And does it void warranty?
A. Technically your warranty is void with any console as soon as you open it. However no damage will be made to the hardware inside.
Q. How long does it take?
A. Usually we offer a same day service, and post it back within 24 hours
Q. If this for all models? All DVD drives?
A. Please see the list at the top of the page.
