M8+ And Live Blocking
« on: November 28, 2004, 01:48:00 PM »

I have a 1.6 box and my only choice is M8+. Just wondering if anyone knows if the evox team will come up with the live blocking feature soon.

M8+ And Live Blocking

Well, I found out just today that you can already do this.

Go grab the 1.4.1 version of the PBL-metoo exploit from the usual places. Inside you'll see Metoo-M8plus_16-06.bin. Flash this to your chip, and tada! 1.6 live blocking goodness smile.gif The metoo release even comes with a modified version of evtool without hash checking so you can load up that BIOS and edit it with whatever features you want!

Enjoy!

PS: I hope live blocking gets added to evtool soono myself biggrin.gif

It actually should, although I'd use X2 4981 on your matrix...

grr canna edit ya old posts now .,.

just found the bios and having a play ...
but in the readme ya got..

* Eject trick (improved over the original, can't be edited with EVtool)
* X2 style Xbox Live blocking (can't be edited)

which means if you DO edit anthing in the bios (like fan speed etc) then ya gonna loose those functions.. yes ??

No; that simply means you can't remove those features wink.gif Edit away with the enclosed evtool wink.gif

Is Metoo-M8plus_16-06.bin a BFM bios? If so, can it be used as normal mod chip bios? That is it can actually be flashed onto a mod chip?

No, it's not a true BFM BIOS. Earlier versions were, and thus couldn't be used on chips. 1.4.1, however, can be, and so:

It works 100% fine on chips. biggrin.gif

Hi, Ive got a Spider Chip, currently flashed with M8Plus_16,

can someone please tell me the easiest / best way to reflash this with the metoo version so I can have the Live blocking functionality ?

I do have Evox, but it is slayers so I dont know if that helps

Thanks
