    Sometime during the day tomorrow (Tuesday, July 19th) when you sign in to Xbox LIVE you’ll receive a prompt to accept a mandatory system update. If you are signed into LIVE already, you may be signed out and asked to accept the update and you’ll be back online in a few moments.
    There are no new features that will show up once your system has been updated.
    This update is preparation for additional system enhancements coming to Xbox 360 later this year.

    I didn't notice it flashing my drive when updating (my drives not modded though). They are new AP2.5 challenges for stuff like Blackops though so pirated copys will not work if you update.

    My drive hacked with hddhackr still works fine.

    Update guys....

    Not only does it have new AP2.5 challenges but its now also locking the SPI on the 9504/0272 (slim) chips so they are write disabled so you can not write fw to them anymore just like the 0225 drive which comes disbled by default.

    Once write is disabled only way to write to your drive again is to mod the chip or replace teh PCB

    Still Live access and not prompted to update. My 360 has a Benq drive, HDMI ready console. My friend also has a Benq drive and was forced to update at 6AM yesterday and he lives a mile away.

    info into this update from team executer




    1. We recommend that you DO NOT update on 9504/0272 drives - they lock the spi on the chip (just like we told you they could). If you REALLY want to update, flash to LT+ v1.9 first then update at your own risk. The fw will be ok but the SPI will lock and you may get flagged for a ban.

    2. If you insist on updating we recommend as always that you revert to stock fw (OFW) or the update might fail or you may get banned ( Example Status Code: 335A - 351F - 1380 - 0703 - C000 - 0099 )

    3. If you have a spoofed drive and you update - expect to be banned. We have been telling you not to spoof for over a year now, so tough tits.

    4. 9504/0272 drives updated in 0225/0401 Xbox's were NOT locked. Another proof that the unlocked PCB works perfectly and that they dont update drives where the OSIG was a locked drive.

    5. The new dash 13599 updates ap2.5 challenges (this was totally expected). update if you want live. stay offline and don't update if you cant wait for new ap2.5 patches

    6. The update is NOT just simply to set up some background technology for further improvements later this year. this is being investigated as we speak. Lot's discovered already !

    7. Use your original AP2.5 games! Abgx will be updated eventually! (there are still the original 6 AP2.5 games - no new ones reported)

    8. 0272/0225/0401 v1.9 LT+ FW is ready and will be released tonight. I wonder how many of you read down this far
