but will we be required to downgrade the system to use this

well, this is xbox ALL OVER

this is great news, and i hope more easily exploitable bugs are found. However if the 360 scene is to become anything like the xbox 1 scene was, the XeDK needs to be leaked, or a substitute one created, to produce workable homebrew on the 360 in anytime frame.

This guy is the reason that 'soon' you'll be able to run homebrew. I think that's far from 'lame' (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

the most interesting replys in this whole thread to me

but deff something to look forward to

what a great time to have a year old new in the box, untouched 360 ;-)

Just remember before you play a game or connect it to anything you must removed resistor R6T3...!

Otherwise you wont be able to downgrade.. and your launch system does not have the bugs that are exploitable.. you must upgrade first.

I think what this really means is that the true hackers can now get into the system and hack and learn. Think about it. If you are really interested in hacking the 360, you go buy a 360 thats fairly resent of buy one off ebay with that kernal. Then you get inside via the hack and you find other vulerabilities.

ahah hey this was so funny!

I mean, i read the article and felt stupid, cos i didn't understand a word, and then, i come here to see some light, and no one is getting anything!

And i read one guy "hoping to God" to have what it takes to fill the article!

I just wish someone could explain the article ...!

... and greetings to my fellow brazilian friends out there...!!!

This is good news.

Akin to the first steps towards the dvd firmware hacking.

Only 'game' I want to play on an Xbox 360 is XBMC.

i stand 100% next to you on that one. and to tell you the truth, i think on the xbox 1 it works almost perfectly, and even if there were some way to have xbmc run on the 360, i would still probably stay with the xbox 1 until i actually start watching hidef movies or some other crap that is really really resource demanding and needs the 360s power.

right now i'm fine with my setup- xbox 1.0, tsop w/x2bios, autoboot xbmc, and a few games and emulators...

HOWEVER, i do think this is a great step and will open the doors to new options, maybe something that will interest me and provoke me to buy a 360- i love fiddling with things.

as always, big props to anyone who discovers stuff, or anything new for that matter.
keep it coming

meh, even if this does lead to something with that specific kernal, I'll be waiting to buy another 360 until a price drop or HDMI, so I won't be able to take advantage of this.

One thing to note though - if MS has no plans for banning hacked dvd drive firmware, you can be sure that they'll ban you instantly (once they detect it) if you use this workaround, if you're shortsighted enough to go on XBL with it in place.

yes i cant wait anymore im going to get a 360 from gamestop now i wanted a black one but hey sice im gonna open it ill spray paint it or casemod

phistyle · « **Reply #55 on:** February 27, 2007, 09:19:00 PM »

xbmc would be nice on an xbox 360 but microsoft needs to do something about the quality of dvd movies played on a 360...the quality is utter crap...ive even read an article on extremetech that says the same thing...the dvd player on the xbox 360 is one of the worst ever....

luther349 · « **Reply #56 on:** February 27, 2007, 09:25:00 PM »

im no chip maker but i think a chip can be made with this kernel on it. so it isnt as useless as you think.

Well maybe just maybe we could use the developer kit to code homebrew for the 360, not even sure if this would be possible if anything comes from this exploit but it would be nice. Who knows maybe even bypass the $100 fee lol.

Sweet. Can't wait to see what happens. I'm glad I havn't updated my 360 for a while; still have kernel 4548
