What kind of disc drive do you have? You can check by taking your faceplate off and to the right side of the disc drive will be a hole with a colored wire or it'll be blank, tell us what kind of cord is in it or if you even see a cord at all. Booting Dead Island will indeed update the 360 and revert the 360 drive to OFW.
Edit: I just noticed you said it was no longer in a loop. If i misread that and it is still in a loop then read the whole thing. If you're not in a loop then just the second paragraph will do. Right basically the game updates the dvd drive firmware to stock first so if your drive is modded it will take that mod off. Then it fails to load the rest of the update because as far as it's concerned dead island is no longer in there. They say at this point you can just get your dvd drive plugged back into your computer and flash the drive once more to the latest firmware. I however believe That When a firmware is updating it's never wise to keep it waiting or restarting it so many times. I get the feeling it would be easy to brick at that point. Here's what i suggest. First and for-most grab a legit copy whether it be from a friend, buying it, renting it just grab a legit copy and finish the console update with it. After that you'll at least be back on your dashboard post update then you can go through the dvd firmware modding tutorials or if you are not the original modder maybe bring it back to the original modder so that he can re-mod it for you. for you too learn just look through some of these threads here Xbox 360 Tutorials These guys are the original creators of the firmware mods for xbox drives and these threads pretty much have everything from taking the console apart to hooking it up the hardware required and every step by step process with videos and pictures. I'd give it an 8/10 difficulty for first time flashers.
my drive is already flashed by a friend of mine ... can i reflash my liteon and obtain the key without using the capacitor or such things?
