What type of PC DVD ROM are you using? Do you need to put an original game in the XB drive to make it work?

[Blick Domain]

I'm thinking of getting a Samsung 616t.

You can't do much piggybacking a PC drive if you havn't backed up your games yet.

You need to hex your xboxdash... search on that:) I hated that too! Works perfect now!

similar issues here,,,   but im runing PBL as an app from the evox menu cuz im using a working font exploit.

the phenix screen comes on,, but then just sits at a Green Checkerboard screen  like RIGHT before the xbox animation comes on...


i have the signed 1.3 loader ,,,

i knowticed in the evox ini its pointing to media player and MS dash to  c:newdash.xbe ...  wtf is newdash.xbe....

do i need to change that to show c:default.xbe  or the FULL path to my PBL folder then evoxdash.xbe


or is this NOT the problem at all...


i have a 1.0 xbox ...

i've done some reading up about this nice hack and read several tutorials on it, but still have some questions.  I am running a modified xbox with an old style 29-wire homebrew modchip.  As you know, this type of modchip is not flash upgradable to the newest and coolest bioses that are being released.

I want to use the phoenix bios loader in order to use newer bioses that allow nice features like IGR, xblive compatibility, etc...

1. Will the loader work if my modchip is enabled?
    a. am i correct to assume that if i can, i don't need to sign anything or load any other exploits?

2. The bios on my modchip auto loads xboxdash.xbe only.  Using this loader, can i have xboxdash.xbe as the original dash, and use evoxdash.xbe as my hacked dash (for xbox live compatibility)?

3. Will i need to use my modchip as only a basis to install the exploits and have it turned off for the loader to work?

4. Only boot from media (BFM) bioses work with this hack?

anyone with experience with this please let me know!

Thanks.

ok i REALLY want this beast to work cuz i have BAD problems playing MOST of my games with the font exploit,, meaning if you try and sign the default,xbe with the font exploit,, the signing fails,, thus it wont play  not from hard drive not from dvd/cd

so what do i need to do here fellas,,,

anybody ??
somebody??

in theory it should work the exact same if its an app run from evox or if you boot to it..


so why wont it work,, i havent put the file in the root of my C drive yet,, BUT if i do   do i leave the default.xbe  thats already there?? or replace it with the one from the PBL ? also as i stated about the newdash.xbe wtf is that,, and what should i change it too..


pretty pretty please!! help   lol

[LESTAT]

ok ok ok i was unclear sorry.....boy arent you the judge, jury and executioner.....and what fun is buying games? There is no challenge in that???  

[scienide]

hmmm small question...

if phoenix bios loader has loaded once... then the bios is flashed isn't it?? Then there is no need anymore for the bert and ernie files to excist and let the xbox boot directly to evox ??

or do i see this wrong??

Yes.

I just got an idea by reading this thread:

Did you ever try to boot the linux bios with pbl1.3?
(what was its name, 'cromwell'?)
It is said that the linux guys fixed the clock loop in their exploit,
so I guess booting linux via cromwell will fix the clock too.
maybe cromwell as 2. bios only booting a very small
linux os gives a pretty good clock loop solution?

but: is there a 'cromwell bfm' ??

I havent tried this because im still using pbl12 and my xbox seems
to do the loop only for 1 or 2 times.

we'll i've just installed it and so far so good, it has loaded no matter what bios i have put on  . The only thing is for some unknown reason i cant FTP into it, so i have to use the save game exploit to alter/update files.

hmmm...

i seem to have a problem too... i've got a new version 1.3 xbox ... and when i install the phoenix loader 1.3 everything works oke...

i can launch evox, the original dashboard etc...

BUT.... the apps i have put on don't seem to work....
You can start them, but they just return back to evox ...
with a xbox of a friend of mine i just put in the font files without the loader, and he is able to run almost every app...

What am i doing wrong?


P.S. I don;t seem to have an F drive.. but also no E drive.... huh??

[bull]

easy n00b qestion, if I load pbl with a retail bfm bis i.e. 4817_bfm.bin will my xbox look lke an unmodded system to m$ for example using live (I have a spare eeprom key if I do get banned), I have a cheapmod installed and I really don't want to remove my motherboard to install a switch.
