(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)  I am sure that big brother Microsucks is looking down and smiling with joy right now

in a way im hoping so , cos if these people think that people are gonna pay for  a key at tha price they need to be done.... as far as i know most hackers liek to get one over on MS not for money making ..

set up a donation scheme , im sure all will be happy :

"So in this instance WE have a alternative solution that is viable. Yes, it costs money....but whats more important is this: YOU CAN MOD IT."

so by that statement you are admitting you are part of the org that are charging for keys???

I think he means WE as a modding community.  YOU (as an individual member of the modding community) CAN MOD IT (the 83850c-equipped drive in your possession).

Now here's a question:

I understand that it's not recommended to cross-spoof between 74 and 83 Liteon Drives. However, can you cross FLASH them? What would happen if you flashed this new 83850c firmware to a 74850c drive? Would it brick the drive? I understand that the 2 drives use similar if not the same hardware.

The reason I ask, is because we know it's possible to cross flash Samsung MS25 and MS28, because they're both the same drive. Likewise, we can also crosshflash the 2 known BenQ firmware revisions to the same drive.

I'd expect a crossflash to work, sort of, as the hardware'd be the same.  The things to watch out for (at the moment at least) would be:-
1) The firmware would need to be spoofed to the version the 360 expects - remember the error you get if you mismatch Samsung ms25 and ms28?
2) If you crossflash forward to 83850c, does the new firmware support the erase command that would let you get back again?

If point 2 trips you up, you'll have to wait for an 83850c-compatible JungleFlasher/DOSflash in order to make the drive useful again.

These guys are going down hard!
Talk about a heat score.

Like saying...Hi, we sell 1/4 oz bars of the freshest, highest quality hashish available on the open market  straight from our online store for only $42 including shipping.

Me thinks someone is testing the waters for the possible ramifications...or perhaps just wants foundmy to go down.

[saleem_hacks_360s]

hey chill man!



might as well say it before someone else does.



they will just say "i am canadian and i aint breaking canadian law"



until they get extradited for breaking international law.you cant send illegal info to other countries.thats a breach of other countries laws like smuggling,they extradite.



you will see a shackled terry (wogan) having his sad ass marched down a jets steps to us soil.

Because the security of the team and team members is the #1 priority. You want us to paint a huge red X saying "come arrest us" ? The team will NOT run its own server to offer decrypt services, even IF we have successfully decrypted the key data.

So are you guys basically waiting to see what happens to foundmy, then release that method to the public or another one. If he goes down.

I think its only a matter of time before the feds and anti-piracy enforcers do a deal with the local Government & cross the borders and shut down their web site. They are breaking the law with copyright infringement as the code belongs to liteon and Microsoft. They risk losing everything and being so public about it will attract media coverage.

The money they will make will only be a fraction of what they will need to get themselves out of the sh#t. Have a look at Microsoft and the anti piracy measures they have taken in China recently. They will be seen as aiding piracy and  profiting from illegal activities. They will regret doing this so publicly, Kudos for having the balls to do this but I see this turning into a legal nightmare!!

What code?  The keys are not copyrighted - numbers cannot ever be copyrighted.  That fact that decryption was required makes no difference.

They are only providing keys - that in itself does not circumvent any copyright protection measures.

What MyFoundry do seems entirely legal - it is THX's copied firmware that is illegal.

I've flashed 83850c f/w to an old Liteon and it works. The only thing you can't do successfully is enter your own DVD key, it doesn't work. I guess a new JF is required to alter the key algo or whatever.

No one said giving the key was illegal. Giving out the algorithm that determines the key is illegal.

Ok, so we know that 83850c f/w works on older Liteon drives. Does this mean that all future revisions of iXtreme will be based on 83850c and then spoofed to the older drive? That seems to be what was done with the Sammy & BenQ, both of which have an older and a newer FW revision (of which iXtreme is based on the newer revision only).

I can only assume that iX based on 74850c will be phased out next release instead of releasing an 83850c and a 74850c version.

[scottmuller28]

Well they are assisting people to circumvent their xbox even if it is legal to extract the key, that will be the argument. M$ will do something with lawyers to shut down the site even if it is only few a few weeks. The outcome is that people can play copy games. Foundmy are the weak link, so it is in M$ interest to sue them to slow them down. Without their service no one can play copy games. If they allowed the process to be public everyone benefits and harder to stop.

Can someone explain this to me.
Is it not just a simple push on a button in jungleflasher to extract the keys??? like the 74 liteon??
Whats the talk about algorithm?? Do we need another program that breaks the algorithm and get the keys and then in jungleflasher we inject the keys in the new Ixtreme flash??

Why should this be more illegal than flashing and retreaving the keys from the other drives, It seems to me that its all bull.

[lethal.b]

the thing is though yeah they could be using it as a money making scheme but the ppl who have worked this way out deserve props for their work seems as they have spent a lot of time figuring the algorithm out etc. some people are just too greedy.

but $42 or w/e price it is, is pretty expensive just for a key. they shud lower the price to at the most £10 GBP.
