slycooper124 Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Ok yea what ever works, I just know when I was doing it, I always went sata with a converter and an 80 wire ide cable because 1 ode hard drive only went to 750gb at the end of its life and any drive I came across was almost 15-20 years old. There are times I do miss doing it, it's more hardware tinkering then the ps2 which is all software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noidedz3r0 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 On the topic of DriveDroid, I have had luck using an image set to 16MB or Lower (8 and 4), any higher and the Xbox cannot read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slycooper124 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 I dont know what drivedroid is and I dont think the system can read it due to it being the wrong file system and its not formatted correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slycooper124 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 It is best if you stuck with a regular flash drive and usb adaptor to get the best and most reliable results, also Make sure the flash drive is compatible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noidedz3r0 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 I had trouble with drivedroid not working correctly, that was until I followed the ogxbox wiki on reddit, specifically using this page explaining how to configure drivedroid and this page explaining how to use the save game exploit.

slycooper124 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 did this page make it to where drivedroid was usable as a way to mod an Xbox? I have always heard you needed a flash drive that was compatible to do it. It would not surprise me if a new way to mod an Xbox was discovered after all this time.

noidedz3r0 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Kind of. For me, I made the drive in DriveDroid following the guide and then formatted it to FATX using the Xbox itself and then transferred the exploit using XPlorer360.

slycooper124 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 If it worked, its new for me. I got out of the Xbox scene in 2016 when people were reporting my listings on eBay, and the tools i used were all original and old tools so it surprises me that there is even new development on how to mod one of those original Xboxs because both time and technology has definitely surpassed the system. Then again the Xbox original is the only physical console that can run an Nintendo 64 emulator and others. I have still on my computer from the days of modding the system, 90 emulators including a 3DO emulator. for the xbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slycooper124 Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 I have never used drivedroid, i cant say it will work on not, but if you need a drive that will work, get the drive in these pictures and you shouldn't have any more problems. The Xbox original is one of the most finicky systems to mod but once its done you never need the drive again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikeymikey Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 I have used both Hitachi and Sandisk USB sticks in the past connected to the xbox with a xbox to usb cable. The Sandisk one was not to long ago and is quite a recent model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slycooper124 Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 The model of drive I have is not the only one. It is just what I know will work. It would be alot easyer to mid xboxes if there was a flash drive compatibility list for the xbox original. Plus another reason Your drive might not work is because you have to connect your flash drive and usb adaptor to controller port 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noidedz3r0 Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 @slycooper124 There is a compatibility list for drives that work, it's on the original xbox subreddit wiki. This is it. @Onknight If that doesn't work try using a FAX Formatter from your desktop. If that doesn't work, you may just have an incompatible phone, or you aren't rooted (I doubt this scenario).

slycooper124 Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Is that compatibility list for the internal hard drives or is it for the flash drive? I only know about the compatibility list for the internal hard drive because some hard drives will not lock via the motherboard because it's an old feature not used anymore.

slycooper124 Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 the compatibility list is only for the internal hard drive of the Xbox original not the flash drive to mod the system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slycooper124 Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 the cable being bad is another possibility but its probably not that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onknight Posted August 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Everyone keeps telling me to get a Sandisk Cruzer Blade 4GB but these are impossible to find and if you can find them the shipping charges are outrageous or they're coming from China and will take too long to get here I'm about ready to just sell the Xbox and say the hell with it I can run these games on an emulator just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slycooper124 Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I never said to get a sandisk Cruze blade flash drive. I understand your frusteration, I was once there. The best way to find a working flash drive is to get a bunch of 4gbs and keep testing till one works. I know its irritating and time consuming but the reward for doing it is worth it.

slycooper124 Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I understand, people can be very persistent, and it can be annoying. If I may suggest to make your life easier, why dont you look on Ebay for a already pre-propaired flash drive with all the necessary files on it. I am sure there are more listings on Ebay like this that will make your life easier. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F202641991782 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onknight Posted August 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) I end up buying a USB Memory Card Reader and Memory Card will be here Monday or Tuesday Praying this allow me add the Files to Softmod it Edited August 31, 2019 by Onknight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slycooper124 Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 I have never used it but it looks like it will do the job because the flash drive just simulates that memory card. You still need to use Xplorer360 to put the programs on since that card is in an xfat file system that windows does not read. Please let me know how this works for you, it may help anyone else who comes here for help if this works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
