I have a chameleon modchip purchased from EB2k back in 2003. It’s either a version 1.0 or 1.1 (the led is blue if that helps, I think red was 1.1 and blue was 1.0). I am working on an Xbox that is FRAGing. The hard drive is damaged and thus I have no means to backup the eeprom using a save game exploit. Does your 1.6 solderless adapter work with all chameleon versions? If so, will my chameleon (using bios X2 4981) work in an Xbox version 1.6b? I tried the help-forums but the site seems to be down at this time. Though this information may not be at your disposal, it may help me determine the items I will need to purchase.


As I said, this is just some notes for me and others that may be in a similar situation. The save game exploit isn't an option since the HDD is inaccessible, booting the HDD in a PC is not an option since it's locked, and hotswapping may not work either if there is in fact physical damage.

I wont give up that easily though. I don’t think there is any other way to get the eeprom backed up in order to prepare a replacement hard drive.

I seem to remember a simmilar problem from a couple of years ago, and if I remember correctly there is a tool for the pc to unlock a HDD.  Can't remember much else but I'm sure there is something in this forum.  I will take a look and if anything comes up will post back here.  Good luck with that drive.
