first thing to handle is getting that firmware backup so you can have your key instead of a $300 doorstop

since the firmware is not modified you should be able to use xtreme boot maker and samread to make your backup WITHOUT using the bad flash method, but the bad flash method should work if nothing else is working for you

after you have the backup, you can try re-flashing your drive with the proper release and toss out the globe chip, but if re-flashing does not work, you will need a replacement drive




p.s. xbox1 backups will not work with your globe chip

So you think the drive is still able to be flash or for that matter even able to read the firmware off of???
