Bypassing Region Coding
« on: January 13, 2009, 08:33:00 PM »

is it possible to do this via a modchip as opposed to flashing?

just because my mate never had to worry about regions on his original xbox.
so i was wondering if it can be done on the 360?

from searching and such, i'd assume it hasn't been done yet, but in theory... is it possible?

Flashing does not bypass region protection

not all games are region coded, some are region free and can be imported from anywhere in the world and played on any console.

you just have to search using google to find out if the games is region free.

According to Globe 360's information, you can create a separate kernel in another region.  The whole thing seems to be a royal pain, and requires both the Globe360 AND Infectus 1/2, but they do claim it's possible to swap between your original, and a modified kernel of another region.

need atleast 2 kernals,
Pal and Ntsc one.

Also need a exploitable dash, below 8XXXX


You can eather keep just one kernal and change it each time you want to play another region,
Region settings are in the keyvault.


You will need to use the free60 jtag hack.
its been covered so have a search.
