I'm getting that color cycle thing when I try to start up Phoenix Bios Loader

[son171717]

I finally got it working.
The only thing is when I take JPG I get an error #53.
Does anybody know how to fix this.

[Veckans]

Same here, i just get that color cycling thing and the screen goes black. I have tried both avalaunch and XBMC as dashboard

I just made a quick tutorial, I hope it helps:

Files Needed:

xbdm.dll (found with XDK)
xbdm.ini (made with XDI or Setup Xbox Debug)
metoo-m8pack-beta1.zip (found on #xbins)
iND-BiOS.5003.rar (found on #xbins)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FTP XDK files:

xbdm.dll to the Xbox E root directory
xbdm.ini to E:/DEVKIT/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit ind-bios.cfg:

Unrar iND-BiOS.5003 and open ind-bios.cfg. Then edit the following setting:
DISABLEDM=0         (enables debug)
INTRO=0             (Skips intro, faster boot)
LEDPATTERN=OOOO     (Changes LED Pattern to orange so you can tell if the debug bios is loaded)
DASH1=read--->      (add the path to your dashboard xbe, eg. DASH1=\Device\Harddisk0\Partition6\Apps\EvolutionX\default.xbe)

When your done save the file and exit. Then ftp this to the Xbox C root directory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing Phoenix Bios Loader (PBL):

Extract metoo-m8pack-beta1 onto your PC. Delete "M8_LBA48_IGR_Q-06-BFM" then add the iND-BiOS 5003 bfm file (iND-BiOS.5003.06.bfm.bin or iND-BiOS.5003.67.bfm.bin, whichever suits your LBA48 setting) to the metoo-m8pack-beta1 directory and rename to "xboxrom.bin". Then open boot.cfg, and remove "#" from "#Debug true", and rename "Romfile M8_LBA48_IGR_Q-06-BFM.bin" to "Romfile xboxrom.bin". Save the boot.cfg and exit. Now ftp the PBL to your Xbox and load it in your dashboard. If everything it setup correctly, your dash should reboot in debug and LED color should be orange.

You can now use XIG or XDK to take screenshots. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

That's pretty much the same thing as the tut I put up is except that I also have all the config files in there as well as the XIG program.

And you will probably want to set xbdm.ini up manually(I have a preconfigured one in the package to work with the tut).

But yeah that is the gist of it. Only thing is that instead of the IND bios, 1.6( b ) users will want the adouber bios.

How do I convert the xbdm.ini ip addresses, wats the hex for:

ip: 10.1.1.11
subnet: 255.0.0.0
gateway: 10.1.1.1
dns: 10.1.1.1

use XDI or Setup Xbox Debug (search google)

Here is a small tut for converting to hex using the numbers kurt_powers69 gave(10.1.1.11, 10.1.1.1 and 255.0.0.0;wierd IP BTW).

OK, first open calculator. Go to view and switch to scientific. Now, make sure it is set to dec. Now, type in the first number which is ten(most people like 192 for the first number). Once typed in, switch from dec to hex. There is the value for the first digit(which is A; put a 0 in front if the hex value is only a single digit). Now repeat for every digit. After all that, 10.1.1.11 becomes 0A.01.01.0B with the dots in it. Now for the xbdm.ini, the numbers need to be reverse endianed(reversed in pairs). So, 0A.01.01.0B becomes 0B.01.01.0A. Now just remove the dots and you have 0B01010A. Now you copy this number to right after the 0x in the ini file for whatever address you are editing.

Another example.

192.168.0.200.

192 = C0
168 = A8
0    = 00
200 = C8

That makes it C0.A8.00.C8.
Now reversed C8.00.A8.C0.
In the ini it will look like 0xC800A8C0.

Hopefully that'll help some people too.

[kurt_powers69]

Ah ok thanks heaps. I been using hex workshop for some modding but never seen the 0x thing in front which confused me. I didn't know about the reverse endianed either. Thanks again mate  .

[kurt_powers69]

Sorry about the double post, but XIG still isn't working for me.. what am I doing wrong. I can use xbcapture from the XDK perfectly but XIG wont work .

[Drilus]

your xbdm.ini file is probably set to DHCP instead of static.

[noselessmonk]

To fix that, change "staticip use" from 0 to 1.

[kurt_powers69]

Ok, yeah it is dynamic. My ftp was 10.1.1.11 but the bios was 10.1.1.3. Will it cause any problems if they both run as 10.1.1.11?

It was already set to 1, I changed it to 0 and tested but still.. no luck.

[Drilus]

yes it can cause problems if they are both set to the same thing. change static back to 1.

make sure your not using evox as your main dashboard. use unleashX. it's FAR better.

[kurt_powers69]

I'm using XBMC, I really don't like UnleashX. I've set the debug IP to 10.1.1.12 and static ip to 1, it's still retrieving through DHCP though.. I've configured my router to assign it 10.1.1.12 based on it's MAC address and XIG still doesn't work.
