Dont trust the grey market people.Buy the lens online.Do it yourself.The lens for the samsung drive is easliy available.Google it up.

Yup, Elite it is :(

I called them up and the Good NEWS is that they said I would be getting the replacement in 5 Working Days this time around [hopefully]  :)

Hi guys i have a problem with my 360. first of all i have got the rrod. Apart from that i have the disc tray problem too. My tray just keeps popping oout and not read any discs at all(even when it didnt rrod). I have modded my console(I regret it now). Are there any easy fixes to this disc tray problem?

 

I know that the rrod is a totally different issue. But are there any fixes?

 

 

Thanks a lot guys

So after successfully fixed my 360's RRoD problem I now have this unplayable disc problem. My console is more than 2 years old and it's seen a fair amount of use.

I have seen a dozen videos on youtube explaining the magnet issue and I'll be trying that and a few others but I still have some questions.

 

Why does this happen only some games? Especially the newer ones, the older ones play absolutely without and problems.

Also where can I get a replacement drive and for how much? I was thinking of buying a new drive altogether if it's financially feasible.

^^ you dont need to change the entire drive for this problem you can just change the lens... Normally an orignal lens and installation could cost upto 3k in Mumbai but not sure about Chandigarh... i believe your best bet would be Palika in New Delhi to fix this issue im sure Delhi members could guide you where to take your console for this problem...

does someone knw if v can put in out own sata dvd drive in xbox 360 n make it work some way ???

 

you can put a Laptop hard drive (only Western Digital Works) Then thru a software called HDDhackr you can use it.

 

Wat it actually does is:

 

it dumps hddss.bin frm the original xbox 360 hard drive.

it mods hddss.bin to the your western digital hard drive.

Ten Little Xbox 360 Sitting in Their Graves... and Counting

 

custom_1223070226131_kfaceplate.jpg

 

That's right, after a particularly good run I've had another Xbox 360 die on me. This time a debug unit.

 

While the instances of Xbox 360 red rings have certainly dropped, I do still hear stories about the console's DVD player giving up the ghost. That's what happened to me in July last year when my last 360 died and that seems to be the case this time around. I was playing the end of LEGO Batman The Videogame when the game paused and a "dirty disc" error popped up on the screen. A few more runs at playing the game allowed me to get a few minutes in before the console crapped out on me again.

Just last month my brother had his Xbox 360's DVD drive die on him as well. He recently went out and purchased a replacement Xbox 360 Arcade.

 

For those keeping track I've now had a total of ten Xbox 360s die on me since the launch of the console. (That's counting debug units and retail consoles). Of those eight died with a Red Ring error and two died with perpetual dirty disc errors.
