Will the backup of your original nand have Xell on it?  As its written to Nand in order to boot linux?

If so could we go back to original by flashing orig nand in linux then flashing c1.bin over first 3MB?

It would be safer to use nandpro to inject the c1.bin 3mb back in to the file.

nandpro backupimagename: -w16 c1.bin

I think this should write the 3mb to the 16mb image

This is just what I was looking for, great post,

Thanks

So for big nand boxes can we follow this tutorial or does lflash not support big nand flashes?

In the first section above:-

if differances where found type

CODE

nandpro lpt: -r3 c2.bin

Should be:-

if differances where found type

CODE

nandpro lpt: -r3 c3.bin

fixed, also i fixed getting the kv from 1.bin should have been c1.bin
thanks.

i just found out today that you can read big block with lflash but flashing isent supported yet.

Doh...thanks, I guess I'll have to do it the long way, sucks I just removed my LPT connector a few days ago.  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

If I wanted just the KV could I use this and get just the KV to inject?

CODE

nandpro c1.bin: -r3 kv.bin 1 1

Or is this just the same as going over the 1st 3MB with c1.bin?

And THANKS FOR ANOTHER GREAT TUT GRIM LEGEND!

Very helpful tut, thanks   . I've just reflashed my 360 using this method and it worked a treat (XBR seems to keep randomly corrupting on my console and causing all sorts of weird problems). The only downside is the length of time Gentoo takes to fully load on the 360. I think the whole process took me nearly as long as using the LPT cable   . But in future I'll be using this to update XBR since there's much less chance of corruption or things going wrong. Will use LPT as emergency backup method.

that cmd will build your original nand.

if you just want the kv yes you can do c1 kv 1 1

Wow, i feel like absolute shite because i cannot even get my xenon 7371 nand to read through lpt. I have tried removing resistors, adding, removing diode on pin 11, i still get the same unfriendly message "flash controller not detected"

[soulwarrior]

Is there any way to recover from a bad flash when lflash made 2 bad backups of the nand? Right now i have christmas lights on a falcon because i flashed it with a bad kv.bin  (ffffff etc at offset 4200 in 1.bin) that was extracted from the 1.bin created by lflash. Is there anyway to recover without a full nand dump or am i screwed now? Side note: I can't swap the key vault from another system because i don't have another falcon.

[soulwarrior]

nevermind, i realized that you could extract the kv and config blocks from c1.bin. Side note: I've never got lflash to correctly flash the first time. It took multiple times.

[firebuddie]

Grim187@ forgive my linux programming ignorance but...if you just want to flash an updated xbr without doing any dump 1st (what'ts the point as you are dumping previous hacked xbr nand which we will have anyway?) why does your code still do this nand dump before flashing new version of xbr? If I edit your code from "./lflash 1.bin xbr.bin" to "/lflash xbr.bin" will lflash just write xbr or is it a limitation of lflash to always have to do a read before you can do a write?

Hopefully makes sense.
