And with the media flag altered we DO have exceeded a limitation which will allow us to edit files so we can look into flaws in games etc to see to get a full hack going in some way.

Very true.  Just look at what was achieved using the Kiosk disk - WMV-HD video playback, & the start of a Flash game homebrew scene.

Even if it doesn't lead to a full exploit, running game backups would facilitate home designed levels, re-skinned and custom characters, etc.  All healthy fun.

Well if people are afraid to get sued for releasing some hack why don't just spread it anonimously. With all the hacks around in all kinds of scenes i doubt this would be a barrier.

that would be great to see a patcher on xbins from an "anonymous" source, hopefully this or something like it will see the light of day some time in the future. BTW, great work on what you've done specialist, even if you don't release it, you've still proven that it could be done, which is always a step in the right direction.

i just hope someone comes up with a hack that will allow the 360 to be region free

i'm pretty sure some games are. just not all of them. i remember reading that cod2 and condemned are both region free.

@ TS

so first you where eager to hack the xbox360 dvd drive firmware and now suddenly you back off ? seems very fishy to me   ofcourse it is youre right to do that but you should be honest about it., its very clear that some mod chip team have offered you money to back off or to join theire team.

well as he said, the xbox1 mods could be argued that they are used for legal homebrew code, a fw hack can *ONLY* be used as a circumvention of copy protection, read your DMCA and youll find that circumventing copy protection is illegal, and this soon after 360s release you can bet MS will prosecute to the fullest

[crsnwby]

So...

Give me your work I will release it, then they can try prosecute me for messing around with my OWN xbox I can do what I want the law cant stop you dissasembling your own stuff..

As soon as its bought its yours you can do with it what you want.

If the info was to magically appear on a site somewhere posted from an internet cafe then how can they find who put it up?

The reason hes backed off is more likely mod chip teams have paid him off or managed to get him on there side. can u imagine how much cash xecuter will loose if a SW hack is released

[lordvader129]

if he gives you his research MS wills till go after him because he released the research

i doubt any chip team would pay him off, no one paid off any softmodders to TSOPers for xbox 1, besides, the fw hack doesnt let you run homebrew, personally im not interested in backups as much as emulators and xbmc, so his hack is worthless to me and alot of other people im sure

[crsnwby]

Nah see im the opposite im not bothered about the homebrew although its nice to have im not fussed but it usually comes in conjunction with any mod chips or hacks. I just dont like spending 50 notes on games only to find out there pants...

You're saying that all you are interested in is piracy?

TS was researched the xbox1 dvd firmware to get better knowlegde for hacking the xbox360 cause drives are similar that was the reason in the first place. and now suddenly he is not interested in hacking 360 firmware anymore HA  
no doubt that he got some money from an mod chip group!.

Does anyone remember why the original thread on this in general hardware got closed?
It turned into Flame fest and Pirates of the Xbox.
Full reasons for TS descisions were given then and people should respect that.
