as x3 (claim to) have the best and most advanced features
and feature are always being added
so for this to opened up to and chips is i think somthing VERY good for the SCENE
and how things used to be ...
(and if this build can be converted, any of thm can ?)
althou we all do hope that x2 bios is developed but is x3 bios can be used then no need for the waiT !

unless it has x3 live config (which it never will because its designed for an x3) itll never have a point
alll the x3 bios does is the same shit as an x2 bios.. dont waste your time with this trash
if u want a logo of your own use that ind bios or whatever
Post by: Arakon on February 15, 2005, 01:13:00 PM
x3 bios's big thing is being able to change all settings directly on the chip. this hacked bios doesn't support that. so you have a bios with some default settings which you can't change in any way, and a way, way, way old build of it (one of the first, buggy ones) to boot. which makes this utterly, completely USELESS.
and it's 1 MB too so it won't even fit on most of the basic chips (aladdin etc).

Yea maybe i'm wrong but that release is opening the door for the cloners which is kinda pathetic.
Arakon : it boots if you split it to 512k... and I agree its completly useless w/o the config live. Just an idea, but knowing executer the protection is the same on the latest build so a simple hex compare would tell what strings/bytes to patch.
Post by: wolrahnaes on February 15, 2005, 01:42:00 PM
WTF is the point?
Without the X3's EEPROM to store settings in, all you have is an X2 with a useless extra menu (if they ever get X3CL loading)
Maybe if they make it run on other 4th gen chips where similar extra hardware is available, this might have a point (as in the owners of those other chips can finally have a proper fully-functional BIOS to boot, rather than booting one to load another)
Post by: krawhitham on February 15, 2005, 01:49:00 PM
They have proved they can decomplie the bios and make it boot on a NON X3 modchip
with more time what makes you think they can not get the config crap working?

What if these hax0rs could program the OS and BIOS into that 1MB. Then, when the Xbox boots up durring the flubber, holding down the white button would load the OS and all the settings would be stored in a file on the HDD instead of an eeprom...
If the BIOS and OS couldnt fit on the 1MB chip, just load the BIOS on there and have the OS and settings run off the hdd.
Dumb question of the post: Could you emulate the chip off of the HDD?
That's my non-proof of concept.
These guys should be indulging in some herbs as well as drinking mass quantities of alcohol.

I would have to agree with everybody that this is pretty lame. The good news however is that it points out that Xecuter is a desirable BIOS and therefore must be pretty damn good. So why don't these people support them and just buy an X3? They cost about the same as the other 4th gen. chips but are built better with a larger clintel base. O well let's just suffice it to say that this wasn't really "news" and I hope that Team Xecuter shows them up in some way.

not to bash Xecuter but a $60 chip is not much better then a $15 chip for the normal user. Just useless extra's. The bios on the other hand is cool and maybe with some black magic they can store setting's on the hd etc. fuck it anyways they are just useing the same method Xecuter uses for there bios remember they stole there code to.

I saw this was posted earlier today as "To k3rn3l" so i was wondering what it was as i didn't have access to my ngs. atleast i know what it is now
what i'm thinking however and many of you haven't considered yet is some possibilities of this.
there were many posts that said "what is the point it can't do anything more than an x2 bios does". true, for the most part it doesn't as you can't access config live let alone save the settings. however, if it is further hacked to allow booting of config live, it could then also be hacked to instead of save/store settings to eeprom to save to a text file on the hard drive and load the settings upon boot similarly to ind-bios.
also alot of posts saying "it's a proof of concept" bla bla bla bla.... sure proof of concepts are always somewhat nice, it was well over a year ago xecuter first bundled an xbe into the bios and now look where it is (there really aren't many new bios specific features in the x3 bioses that the x2 doesn't have, they are mainly all xbe features through x3 cl). The thing that bothers me though is that they seem so proud that someone disproved someone by making it work on a chip other than it is entended. the thing is though that it's always been known that the bios could load on any chip with a big enough flash rom (or 1meg tsop for that matter) the thing it couldn't do it still can not and that is save settings so that you get full advantage of the bios.
so where is my stance on what i see comming of this or hope does happen, i think that eventually that the x3 bioses will be modded enough that they will work on other chips, however they will always be a few releases behind as i see different compression and encryption algorithms being used now than what were previously. as i've always said about anything that has been hacked, cloned, etc, to me that would be somewhat of a compliment. it shows just how badly people want something when they have to hack it up like this, though they are not willing to pay anything more than they have to. to me it would be somewhat flattering that someone went through the trouble to try and hack this bios, however it also shows that they can't create something this good on their own or you'd see more than 2 teams making bioses from source (teamxecuter and ind-bios). sometimes thing like this are good as they help push creativity, lets hope that this is the case.

Just to verify the whole image has to be used and you cannot cut or shrink it to a 256k bank or even a 512k bank, it just won't boot. This is on my TSOP'd 1.0 xbox anywho, I have it setup for dual banks of 512K, and I don't want to do a whole xbox flash, cause without the live config its pointless. if you have luck with it on other setups please post.

Reread what you are referring to here, I said as long as the chip or tsop is big enough. I only mentioned 1024k as there are no 512k tsops on any xboxes.
If you reread what i said i said that it will be behind due to xecuter changing the way they encrypt IN THE FUTURE, obviously not right now
Also reread what you are referring to here, i didn't say it was created from scratch, i said from source. don't take offence just because evox doesn't create from source.
Where did I complain?
maybe you should stick to forums in languages you can fully understand/interpret/respond
dunno why you always have the need to take anything i say personally and try to argue it with me, esp when you don't understand what i have said.

I could almost get a ounce for that price
And as far as thie bios hacking stuff,
imo (not that it matters)
Its just like any other hardware+software vendor. Xecuter makes their money on the hardware. MS makes theirs on the software. Just like we've done to MS (take the subsidised hardware) people will now do to xecuter ( take the subsidised software ). If there was a magic button to stop this now xecuter wouldnt exist now would it :P
Xecuter is likely not too worried. They have a very loyal fanbase to appeal to
Reverse engineering is fair use remember :)

Though trying to sift through your english (and my lack of understanding) I was wondering if you could clarify
So the purpose of the packer/unpacker is to replace the x3 1.6 bios with your debug bios. (so as to capture the x3 eeprom I assume?)
simple...
So I assume knowing the memory locations used by the live config will help us locate where they are refrenced in the bios.
We will

I made a post earlier about supporting xecuter, but now that i think about it a lot of people made a good point about suitable v1.6 BIOS options. My girlfriend has a softmoded v1.6 running with Evox M8. I would love to give her this BIOS release as xecuter does make some fantastic BIOS releases. So don't flame me, I see the wisdom in both sides of the argument, now if only i could interpret Yoshi's readme file I may be able to make understanding of exactly what is going on. :P

Even if they did get this thing to write shit to a chip on the mod, would it really happen?
Xoduses flash os rom will let you flash stuff by xodus ONLY.And its gotta be in recovery mode.
Even if they did get it to s tore in bios, it would mean reflashing every little button press or change, and that sucsk when ure a perfectionist.
If you want X3 Config Live! get an x3. End of it.

Wrong... patch the same bit on 2913 and it'll boot...
If you reread what i said i said that it will be behind due to xecuter changing the way they encrypt IN THE FUTURE, obviously not right now
QUOTE(jokk)
No one created a bios from scratch that can boot all your warez stuff, just stolen sources. CL is an embedded xbe, remember ?
Also reread what you are referring to here, i didn't say it was created from scratch, i said from source. don't take offence just because evox doesn't create from source.
QUOTE(jokk)
Agree, but I think it'll only push cloners ahead (you know that xilinx/lattice cpld with actel printed on it, xecuter bashed Xodus for that but are using it anyway) ... Plus xecuter fanboy shouldn't complain, that lame rlz will only help k3rn3l to build some more hype for his chip. 
Where did I complain?
maybe you should stick to forums in languages you can fully understand/interpret/respond
dunno why you always have the need to take anything i say personally and try to argue it with me, esp when you don't understand what i have said.

if you want X3 just by the damn thing i mean they cost about as much as a 1/4 bag of weed for christ sake
:P

:o
Either you live in a drug free america,
or you buy from the wrong place :D
I could almost get a ounce for that price
And as far as thie bios hacking stuff,
imo (not that it matters)
Its just like any other hardware+software vendor. Xecuter makes their money on the hardware. MS makes theirs on the software. Just like we've done to MS (take the subsidised hardware) people will now do to xecuter ( take the subsidised software ). If there was a magic button to stop this now xecuter wouldnt exist now would it :P
Xecuter is likely not too worried. They have a very loyal fanbase to appeal to
Reverse engineering is fair use remember :)

Hi all this tool it's one pack && unpacker for My debug kernel 1.6 and X3 rom 1.6 .
So the purpose of the packer/unpacker is to replace the x3 1.6 bios with your debug bios. (so as to capture the x3 eeprom I assume?)

Xoduses flash os rom will let you flash stuff by xodus ONLY.And its gotta be in recovery mode.
Even if they did get it to s tore in bios, it would mean reflashing every little button press or change, and that sucsk when ure a perfectionist.
If you want X3 Config Live! get an x3. End of it.

I dont know if the x3 bios can use an imbedded eeprom or not, but if it can, then can't you use the xbox's eeprom chip to store the CL settings? (if it has enough space)
Or, like others suggested, have it search for a settings file on the HDD like iND bios.

There are several "fixed" locations on the HDD where X3 config could store its data, in the first 512 kB of the HDD (the "config area", you have to find some unused positions in there) or at the 4 kB superblock at the beginning of every filesystem, of which only the first 18 bytes are used.

in other words, it will only be a few weeks tops till a tool is released to inject an eeprom with your own custom settings however you want them directly into the bios before flashing, thus having the functionality of the x3 but without the convenience of changing settings without reflashing.

first off, you have to unpack the bios, secondly x2 chips can use 1024k bioses, and lastly the eeprom settings that would normally be in the x3 eeprom are not what is being hex edited, the hex edits you have to do are being done to the default settings that come with the bios.

Does the patcher also patch it for use on any chip or does it just change the settings in the bios (though that wouldnt make any sense because if you had a real x3 you wouldnt need to patch the settings)?
