Xbox with 5530 bios. Can this be exploited?

[Attreu]

Just tried exploiting a relatively new xbox, manufacture date 30.10.03 but I cannot get the exploit to work.
I have been using AUF gamesave hack and i can get access to the xbox thru FTP but i cannot get it to boot the phoenix bios loader.

Any tips? or can this even be done?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Attreu

I got a Nov 03 to work. It uses a new video chip. So it will be scrambled. You need to downgrade your xbox live to 1, use mechassualt to do it. Then reboot and try and update xbox live, but make sure you dont have your cable in the jack. Then you will need to copy a track from an audio cd to the hd and the hack should work. Make sure you are using the correct bios, I am not sure what the bios # is since I am not at home to tell you, will post back with the bios I am using. My only issue is that I have to copy a cd to the xbox hd everytime I want to play, I am not sure if there is a way around it.

Newest 007 AUF gamesave with PBL 1.4 should support the new focus chip, download the latest gamesave. follow Mr. Snatcher's advice and downgrade or your Ms dash might be corrupted.

Yoshihro discovered a way to do it but its complicated and involves editing your eeprom, best wait and see if anything easier appears from his latest findings, I think something will.

What kernal do you have?

And Dunny, not everyone here can read spanish (I think thats what it is).

The only thing I can read on that site is yoshiros sig, which btw its very nice. :D

[pepsik]

it's french, and yoshi needs to take some french grammar lessons. After re-reading it a couple of times I figured out he made a copy of the eeprom and edited the first line to the lines that are noted and then it worked. But it's still vague on how to use config magic to patch the eeprom.

The problem come from the EEPROM. What to do :
* make a backup of the EEPROM with Config-Magic.
* Transfer backup.bin to your PC
* open it with a hexa Editor.
* If the first Line is 0003800000000000 then replace the rest of the file with that :
FFFFFFFF000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000400000 0

* Save as EEPROMBackup.bin and transfer it to e:\
* Restore your EEPROM with Config-Magic
* Install an exploit ( audio or font )
* It works
