Maximus xtractor official page for download the soft

CODE

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Maximus - 360 Xtractor Reader Beta 0.3
---------------------------------------------------------------------

   Intherim Release, this functionallity will be added to Fw Toolbox soon


WHAT IS IT ?
----------
   Graphical tool to allow read keys from Lite On / Benq Drives
   It supports USB key dumping if using with an 360 Xtractor Tool
   Also contains bonus feature as NO-SLAX ModeB command
   Can work with 360 xtractor tool or other (homemade max323) adapters,
   even rival tools are welcome
  

MAIN FEATURES:
---------
 - Key reading on Liteon Benq Drives
 - key.bin/identify.bin/inquiry.bin file generation
 - Allow ORIGINAL / CLONE detection for 360 Xtractor Tool (R.I.P. D.France)
 - BONUS FEATURE: Send ModeB command to All Hitachi Drives (even 78/79) NO SLAX REQUIRED


INSTALLATION:
---------------
 - Unzip contents on the folder you like, make sure the folder has write permissions
   since some small temp files could be generated by application on that folder


HOW TO USE:
------------------
 - This application rely on Legacy Mode or IDE-SATA adapter to be able to send/receive
   data from the drive, Legacy Mode it could or could not be supported by your PC Bios
   once enabled the OS will see sata channels as if where regular IDE channels

 - Once you setup Legacy Mode or IDE-SATA adapter you should choose the IDE Port
   (Primary Master/Primary Slave or Secundary Master/Secundary Slave) according to the
   sata channel you have attached the Drive, you could simply click on "SEND IDENTIFY ATAPI"
   button so if you get the Drive response then its the proper channel

 - Liteon Drives should be powered on with tray half opened, I would recommend follow this great
   tutorial from devils360 http://www.devilsps3.centelia.net/360/?p=7
   you also should choose the com port that is used to comunicate with the drive

 - To Read liteon Keys just click on "Key Read" Button, keys will be displayed

 - To Save Files just click on "Get Key And Files" and files will be generated and you
   will be asked for location of the files

 - To Put a Hitachi drive in ModeB just click on ModeB button, make sure the attached drive is
   a Hitachi, this command will be rejected for other brand of drives, this feature is useful
   on Hitachi 78/79 to avoid SLAX booting.

 - Dont use this tool to mess with Other (Windows Visible) drives or dvd roms, sending eject/load
   commands to windows controlled drives could work but if you disturb windows control over them
   horrible things could happen. My advice is keep a channel for the "non-visible" drives it could
   be Primary or the Master, and leave the other for Windows controlled drives

nice tool would be nice now if we can get a tool that can make the samsung be reconized in windows without using a 0800 disc

[mafiafan123]

- BONUS FEATURE: Send ModeB command to All Hitachi Drives (even 78/79) NO SLAX REQUIRED

THATS HOT!  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pop.gif)

but even after mode B is done do we need to restart the computer after mod b or should the drive auto detect because if thats what it says ITS AMAZING!

mafiafan> No rebooting required. Did a V79 today completely without rebooting. Credit goes to podger for the code though.

Oh, and great tool. Was waiting for a solution that didn't require me to manually copy the key. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

[pyter]

That's right. This software is nothing but a shell to hide Podger's work...

Hi the orginal code for the mode b not come from the podger the code is here before teh xtrem firmware the code come from kev the code is opensource i know this one since too many time  

here the proof  : Kev DVD hitachi 360 hacking site

/*
 * Puts a Hitachi-LG Xbox 360 DVD drive into modeB.
 * In modeB, the drive responds to standard ATAPI
 * commands that it otherwise wouldn't (for example:
 * Read(12), Inquiry, Mode Sense(10)). ModeB also
 * changes, among other things, the behaviour of the
 * drive's eject input and tray_status output.

No, we WILL worry about people giving credit where credit is due. Beta or not is no excuse. If its been 'opensource' information, then why has he not implemented it before? Kinda a lame excuse to wait all this time, and then oh-so coincidentally right after podger releases it.

The fact is, seventhson told podger about it, and gave him the 'ok' to make it public, and then maximus is now using it. That is the REAL story.

I do not understand the point of this release. Why did he not just implement it into fwtb? This is just a clone of dvdkey32 and mode_b.

[OggyUK]

About as open as N.O.C.H.E.C.K firmware being hidden from 4.0

The guy has done everything to avoid thanking podger, even for his time / research and insights.

Let alone his 79Unlock (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I praised the passkey, it done what we all wanted to do - but sometimes, poeples actions deserve condeming

IF max played ball, we could have had so much more, sooner

9 weeks it took podger to code 79unlock on his own, nocheck was implemented after podger released it, but was 'common knowledge' before then as well.

Credit where its due!

Sorry if you believe that maximus never use anything without ask to real dev ever you can use the last toolbox for help you to flashing your drive and patch your hitachi firmware or spoof it  .so no need to throw stones to him thanks

It's only My Opinion

[Ree1981]

Anyone actually test the product? I can't get it to work with my XCK v2 / RS232 kit. Wish I could just enter my port number instead of dealing with the master/slave thing.

[BoNg420]

What is the no check firmware in the new firmware toolbox?

[OggyUK]

It was in 4.0
