From what I've read the firmware isn't actually encrypted, so there's no decryption needed. You only need to find the location of the key.

100 is 1.8V, 101 is 3.3V and 102 is a GND according to fail's post in the thread on XBH.

Oh, thanks for the link to that diagram. That helps out a bunch. So, when they say to wire pin 101 to 3.3V, can we use pin 122? Or will it have to be another location thats not on the chip itself?

good work to all involved.  can't wait to see the product that comes from this.

now anyone who wants to revert liteon back to stock can do so, dump the drive, right click on bottom pane on JF, save as dummy, then open dummy.bin in top window of JF with lite-OFW on the bottom, spoof, voila.
For those of you complaining, considering this is the dreaded ALL HOLES PATCHED liteon, we should be VERY grateful the solution is so straight forward and easy in comparison. I would not have been surprised if it required removing the whole controller let alone 2 legs.

Seems like now I have an excuse for charging my friends for modding now. before I did it for free cause it was easy. I will see how hard it is to do this. Seems less difficult and more just learning how to do it (and probrary takes a lot of time lol). With this and the new firmware, it looks like the mice is speeding past the cat again lol. Only two things missing now which is a way to do the Jtag(or simmilear) hack on newer firmwares (mostly that we were at when all of those consoles got banned) and an easy livecd of xboxmedia center and install over a usb drive then we are in business lol.
edit: pigbait I think M$ knows what we are doing all the time anyway. Microsoft will surly get either a new real unmoddable lite on or switch over to another company (I have never seen a console switch to so many different manufacturers in all my life lol). Im stocking up on new xboxs very soon seems like a safe bet to plan ahead rather then wait until the last minute when there is no moddable xboxs in stores.
And yes I know I am optimistic, I have to be hell I have 5 consoles laying around that could be jtaged if of course I knew of a good reason (which Im sure wont be long).

how about this for a solderless

cut track 101 and 122
join pin 100 and 101 with conductive ink
boot dosflash get Status x72
clean off ink
connect 101 to any 3.3v point on board using conductive ink
read flash
remove ink then repair cut tracks with conductive ink
done

I could see connecting track 100 to 101 with conductive ink, but how would you connect 101 to 3.3V with it? Only thing I could possibly think of would be to run the trace on top of the chip to another 3.3V pin if that is possible. Maybe there is a different way? I really need to get one of these drives...

Just a little confused here. Which 3.3v are we suppose to use? Looking at the diagram there's 7 to choose from not including pins 101 and 122 of course. So it doesn't matter which 3.3v you connect to right?

[tomgreen99200]

Great work ! It didn't take very long either

As if people shipping their drives off to be modded for a fee would have kept Microsoft in the dark?!?

After reading a little bit more on this method, it seems that any 3.3V source will work. Haven't confirmed if you can use pin 122 or not yet, but probably not.

[xboxer360]

yes pin 122 also works

It wouldn't leave anyone in the dark, but the whole situation is about the method and information being released, which could potentially lead to Microsoft plugging up a hole in future designs (ie. JTAG exploit).

And guess what? Another method is found. That is how modding works: one method is patched, another is found. In the end modders always win, and the "omg we told M$ what to do, we're screwed!!!" is not even worth laughing at because of it's ignorance.

Anywho, GREAT job to those who researched it!
