I asked this a long time ago and got some answers.

Apparently they have finished a 256K debug bios for the conexant chip, but not the focus one. They have not yet released the conexant version for reasons beyond me. I did meet a guy who had a beta? (or could have been final) version of the conexant one.

The development of the bios may have been put on the back burner once the v1.6 hit stores and every team started working on that.

This 256k debub bios will be released, have no doubt about that.
But it's true that the 1.6 stories, bug fixes and others stuff have delayed it for a long time.
As Vince_V says, a connexant version works.
Keep in mind that we don't want to release a buggy bios. Yoshi and our team are new on the scene so we don't want to make a mistake.
Please be patient

In all case, a 256k debug bios won't work with both connexant and focus. Two versions will be released.

Understand that we don't release only the connexant version because we said we would release all in one time.
And we don't want complain by "Focus" people having flashed their SST with the wrong bios.

Its sad that a few stupid people have to ruin i for everyone else.  sad.gif

But, its up to you guys, after all, it is your bios. But, wouldn't it also be good to release the conexant bios now, instead of having to wait another few months dealing with the v1.6 and other projects, before you can get back to working on the focus one.

And, it was a while before the focus debug bios was released, but many people didn't make the mistake of formatting with the wrong debug bios (except in the beginning when people didn't realize there was a different gpu).

Or, you could release a beta version to a selected public (like the people in this thread biggrin.gif ) and we could further test it for you. I'd gladly be willing to see how well the debug bios works on different versions of xbox's (I have over 7 xbox's, and have every version, except the 1.6. I also have the halo xbox to test on).

So, how about it? I know I've been dying to get my hands on your great bios. The current one is good, but I hate having to switch back and forth between bios's every time I want to play halo...

Anyway, let me know what you decide.

FOr the connexant version, the tests have all been passed successfully.
For all your requests (that I understand), i CAN'T answer you as I don't take these decisions.
Please be patient, the time will come!
