79 Unlock Tutorial |
|
I have added the tutorial for using 79 Unlock to flash Hitachi ROM v0079FK and v0079FL drives to the downloads section of the site. You can download it here:
http://www.360mods.net/Downloads/details/id=88.html
or a direct link here:
http://www.360mods.net/tutorial/Podger.pdf
This will be included when the Textbook tutorial is updated, but because of the influx of people flashing 79 drives, I wanted to get this out as soon as possible. This will give me some more time to make other improvements to the Textbook tutorial.

Soft Unlock for Hitachi 79 |
|
podger over at xbox-scene and xboxhacker has just made it quite a bit easier on anybody looking to modify their Hitachi 79 drive. He has developed a method and application for flashing a Hitachi 79 without soldering and without opening up the drive at all.
You can read the thread here. Please note that this thread is in the technical forums over there, so please do not post in that thread asking stupid questions.
You can download 79 Unlock in our downloads section : http://www.360mods.net/Downloads/details/id=87.html

Tutorial:
1. Unrar the file
2. Burn the Image.cue file with a compatible burning software, I used ImgBurn....
3. Put 79 in Mode B
3. Insert the CD in the 79 and play the track, wait for it to finish...
4. Then press play again and straight away pause it, you should hear some noise
5. Eject the disk, using the eject button not the PC ( it does something different)
6. Run the the command in a command window
79Unlock h
// where h is the drive letter of the 79
// this will error regardless, ignore the error
7. If all went well bit 4 of (0x5BD) should be set and the drive should be unlocked
8. Drive will dump and flash with Toolbox...
9. This is a tempory unlock, (0x5BD) is in RAM and would need to be done each time you power the drive, although I've posted how to by pass this with the drive unlocked with a passkey.....
10. Has not been extensively tested but worked on 6 drives to day so far... |
Note: If using the Xbox 360 to power the drive, remember to have the video cable plugged in or the system will power off after about 5 minutes. This must be a component or composite video cable. HDMI has no hardware detection, and because of this, the system will power off even with an HDMI cable plugged in.
For anybody who has been unlucky and landed themselves a LiteOn drive, here is a little tease from c4eva himself.

Database Restored From July 12th |
|
Before attempting to update the site to the latest version, I made a database backup on July 12th. There were too many problems with the upgrade and lingering issues that I decided to restore the database using this backup. The good news is that the site should be working 100% (hopefully). The bad news is any new forum posts or private messages (more recent than the 12th) are gone. Sorry for any inconvenience this causes.

LiteOn Drive Found in Repaired Xbox 360 |
|
A LiteOn DG-16D2S DVD drive has been found in an Xbox 360 after being repaired by a Microsoft service center in Australia. The drive tray looks just like a BenQ/Phillips drive, so there is currently no external method for identifying systems that have this drive. Currently there is no method for dumping the drive firmware. These drives will most likely begin to appear in newer 360's in the following months.

Minor Xbox Live System Update |
|
There was a minor Xbox Live system update released yesterday that adds support for the "Scene it?" trivia game joystick controllers. This is not the fall dashboard update, and no other features are part of this update. This update has been analyzed by firmware people and linux/homebrew people and seems to be safe on both fronts. Many people have accepted the update already and stealth backups are still working fine. People with the iXtreme firmware still have not been banned from Xbox Live. Another speculation was that Microsoft may try to fix or prevent the timing attack, used to downgrade the system kernel. tmb_inc has informed me that he believes the timing attack should still work with this latest kernel. I have already accepted the update, along with others, and I haven't heard any problems. I will be testing the timing attack soon, once I get some parts to build it.
People with BenQ drives should know that c4eva is hard at work on the firmware front, so wish him luck.
