5659 Exploit Also Works For 5713 ?
« on: August 31, 2004, 12:27:00 PM »
Hi,

I have modded several Xbox 1.5 dash: 5659 models, using the font exploit.
After hot swapping the harddisk, I uploaded the fonts, BusyBox Xbox Linux, raincoat with Xecuter bios, and a downgraded dash... don't know which version, but the mapname is 'xboxdashdata.1012A700'.

After rebooting, the font exploit crashed the downgraded dash and then starts BusyBox Linux, which opens a telnet client at port 23.
Connecting to the xbox, using telnet on my laptop, I have flashed the BIOS with the Xecuter bios.
Off cource, this is only possible after soldering the 3 open pins on the motherboard, in order to make the bios writeable.

Well, some of you guys will understand my story, and the workaroud.
Here's my question:

CAN I do the EXACT same trick with a 5713 Dash version Xbox??? With the EXACT same software I'm using now???

Thank you,
MP

Depends. The dash version is irrevelant (to a point). It's the kernel version. The new 1.6 box tsop is not writeable

you cannot downgrade the dashboard on a 5713 kernel.

So the 5713 kernel has this new 'protection feature' that it will first check the dashboard version, before it continues the boot procedure, right?

Damn... M$ finally came up with a 'non-modchip exploit' protection i guess.
Checking the dashboard version is very logical and easy... but can it be manipulated?

The kernel's checking the certificate date of dashboard .xbe's and enforcing that they can be no earlier than 5659's.  (This has been circumvented by using non-dashboard .xbe's as bootstraps instead eh. ;) )
