How to Restore Firmware JungleFlasher

JungleFlasher is an Xbox modification program developed for use with altered firmware files (BIN) that allow the console to play backup copies of movie and game discs. You can use JungleFlasher and a computer to restore the original firmware on your Xbox console if you wish to return the system to its original state. Restoring the firmware on the Xbox will take about 20 minutes.

  Open the console to connect it to your computer. Remove any power cables from the rear of the system, then remove the faceplate from the front of the console.

Disconnect the SATA cable from the Xbox motherboard to the DVD drive, then connect your SATA cable from the Xbox motherboard to the computer. Turn on your computer.
