News on Lite-On DG-16D5S 1175 Drive *Updated*Posted by XanTium | December 15 19:55 EST | News Category: Xbox360 |
| |
From c4evaspeaks.com:
Work on this drive is temporarily suspended while v3.0 is in progress for other drive models.
The original fw of the DG-16D5S 1175 drive was dumped several months ago, shortly after the drive first began appearing in retail units, but employs a new encryption that is different from the older DG-16D4S drive model. There will be no further progress on cfw for this drive until the encryption algorithm is reversed and the ofw decrypted.

Damn, I got my hopes up when I saw the title, just to have them crushed again after reading the article... Well, I'm sure c4e and the scene will be able to crack this one as well, but atm I'm more interested in RGH on Corona...
-
one day it will be out just when who knows
-
Not the news I was hoping

you not the only one...drive mods getting pretty out of hand imho

Are Lite-on 1175 drives everywhere now or will it be while for 0401 drives to disappear at the store? M$ is not giving that means c4eva did a good job.

if they can get the key they should at least say how because all u need is the key to use an odde

Article clearly states new firmware has encryption which is different from older drives. So key a d the board won't do the job.
-
I guess is not the same method being used for old drives like drilling or capacitor?
-
yeah at least key i need to get OOD emu (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I hope this will be possible soon

how can I tell if I have this drive? is there a way to do it by manufacturer date of the xbox 360 or... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) ?

In my experience (in the UK at least) Lot No. 1131X and under are not 1175, 1132X seems to be a mixure of Corona/1175, Corona/1071 and Trinity/1071. In other words 1131X appears to support drive flashing and RGH whereas 1132X is a bit of a lucky dip.
Again, this is just my experience.. best to check the maunfacturing date agaist the database www.360drives.com
-
Sounds interesting, can't wait to see how this one plays-out, does anyone know how the have extracted the dump? (Decapping or other?)
I wonder what this drive has in-store (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pop.gif)
-
As long as you don't have the newest mobo (Corona) you can RGH it to get the key and then revert to stock. A bit of a pain in the ass just for the key, but hey it isn't that bad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
(Not sure if this drive is only in Corona boxes or if it came out before Corona. I think the drive came first but not sure.)

How much you guys want to bet that team xecutor and the rest of the boys will came up with a new "spear" and some other crap they want to sell us only to become obsolete within a few weeks/months. Even if there was a software o kamikaze type of mod they wont let anyone know....why you ask??.... becuase then they come up with something new to sell us. Sometimes hardware is needed like for the RGH, other times hardware is not needed like the " LT Switch". They pushed the LT Switch down peoples throats when they knew of other ways to retrieve the dvd key. And the list goes on ladies and gentlemen. Monopolization at its finest.

Reading/writing the firmware isn't the issue here - decrypting it is.

Well said. I feel that's the reason they are not tellings anything. But it's ok. At the end of day we are just going to buy it anyway.

I don't normally comment on this type of crap, but really? Xecuter pushed it down people's throat? Are you retarded or something where you can't do something on your own? Maybe you are in another reality than I am in, but I do not remember being forced to use or buy anything. I have done a lot of things the "hard way" and I really appreciate any and all of the tools, products and software made by various people and groups. Team Xecuter, podger, geremia, maximus, xkey, wasabi, freeboot, schtrom, tiros, c0z, tmbinc, xorloser, etc, etc... The list goes on and on, who cares stop crying about this product or that product or they did this or they did that and grow up. Everyone builds upon others and in the end you do have choice to be thankful for.

Normally I would just remove posts that could lead to flame war but this is spot on saying it as it is.
Nobody forced anybody to buy anything they dont want to.
Now back on topic.

Agreed and glad you did not remove it.
On Topic, yeah I have one of these drives and the new MOBO to go with it in a slim bought over a month ago.
K-Mart actually paid my guy a Penny (yeah Im not gonna go into detail as to how he does it but its 100% LEGAL (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) just so i could have a box with all the newest shizzz to mess around with when the time came.You guys have a way to dump it I'd be happy to attempt to with your technique and provide the dump to you to help with decoding.
-
benefit is these drives are installed in glitchable 360's. Decrypting the encrypted firmware will not be a problem. Once decrypted it should be easy to reverse the algorithm to re-encrypt.
Its the next batch of drives that come in the corona model boards with no glitch ability.
as for the flames on TX and the other groups - they are out to make the cash not single-handedly hold the scene up.. Of course there are more exploits. RGH was sat on for a year before it was disclosed to ANYONE.... They sell whats 'public' easy, or marketable to capitalize on, while the private methods stay just that way - so your 'public' method thats commercialized can continue... as each one gets closed (spear dead due to new MS action) they have another method to reveal.
From the sounds of it MS didn't do any further advanced hardware protection (than a locked SPi) but they did add an encryption like the original hitachi drives had.. For sure there will be a spear or unlock board to get past SPi lock (maybe wrong) - but if you have the right component (cap or resistor or diode bridge or whatever) you can make your own for pennies... Maybe a corona hack will come out and you will have to use an elf file to dump/flash your drive right in the xbox to force the sales of NAND-X and CoolRunners V2 combination they are set to release? who knows.
It can be a very safe bet that the D4S drives are very close to the D5S. its not like this drive came out of nowhere....
Has no one on here took an economics class? basic business. Why sell the ferrari at $10,000 when people will buy kias for that price?

Who said corona is unglitchable? It was apparently designed pre-RGH.....
If anyone decrypting the new FW needs someone to contribute a reasonable chunk of CPU WU's then I might be able to help. I'm guessing the kernel guys will make short work of it thru something similar to RGH but using SMC instead of Hana ;-) Maybe they can just figure it out somehow by looking at the update and how it decrypts it... I look forward to seeing what our cluey(er) scene member's come-up with on that one.
My guess is that it wont need anything much more than existing unlocking, but we will need perhaps some extended way of decrypting and then re-encrypting etc.. they prolly went with extending their hashing system somehow to make it more unique (like silent DAE.bin upd) and more painful to put back looking legit (I could speculate more here but for obvious reasons I wont)
(sorry fer straying off topic here...)
Monopoly implies there is only one alternative, not so .. It's just the ethics of one affect the many... just because you can doesn't mean you should doesn't seem to bear consideration to some, whom by their actions bite the very hands feeding them, if you are one of the many who are bitten, before you get angry remember THEY ARE NOT A MONOPOLY

Anything after August 17, 2011 is likely to be a Corona/1175, which, at present, cant be modded

Is there anything WE can do? Plenty of spare CPU cycles around here if someone set up a Project-X-type brute-force attack on the OFW, if such an attack is feasible?

Just because you want to save the world doesn't mean you can.
-
every1 getting a slim shud be looking at preowned ones as the valhalla can do rgh & have a liteon 0255.
-
It would be nice if they would release the method used to dump the firmware so that we could all look at the encryption
-
NO that would be a foolish idea!
The last thing you want to do is reveal to MS the procedures used to decrypt their newest firmware
You NEVER release your source code or decryption procedures publically. Because if its made public the Provider can see how its been specifically compromised and patch the backdoor holes being exploited and port the techique over to newer drive firmware to ensure they can't be simmilarly compromised.
Give C4eva and Team Executer a little credit. The reason that great relationship hast lasted all these years is because they keep their mouth shut and keep the lid shut on all source code and procedures for disassembly.
Come on guys think first before posting.
Releasing your source code and private decryption procedures is something only an uniformed NOOB would ask. A skilled hacker knows such things must always be kept very private!
EXAMPLE:
How you think we so sucessfully NOZKT'd or hacked the old DirecTV receivers for nearly 8 years right under Dave's watchful eyes?
Because, we never released the procedure or source code for decrypting or dissasembling their reciever's firmware and thus for 8 years every new DirecTV receiver/model was compromosed the same exact way; Thus forcing them to finally replace all satellite cards and all STB receivers in 2004, since our NOZKT hack was 100% unstoppable. If it had been released them Dave could have easily patch all firmware updates to keep us out or at best keep us cronically repatching firmware to spoof around it and keep it working.
This is why you NEVER release source code or decryption procedures.

While that's true....well, it's a hard situation. I've always known the scene to be open and sharing. But with the ability to patch/fix on the fly, it's hard to make that call so easily now. I remember back then when Linus was going on about how closed-source stuff kills innovation, but at the same time, being closed like that prevents the wrong people from knowing. It's a catch-22.

quote on c4evaspeaks.com
Lite-On 1175 DG-16D5S LT+ v3.0 IN PROGRESS
Hide content Hide version details
This version adds support for topology data in place of AP2.5 replay data for all XGD3 and AP2.5-active XGD2 backups. *NOTE: For drives that support AP2.5, all backups containing AP2.5 replay data will need to be patched or re-dumped and re-burned for compatibility with v3.0.
iXtreme LT+ v3.0 for Lite-On Slim retains support for the use of truncated backups, although it it strongly recommended to use full XGD3 burns made with a compatible Lite-On iHAS drive flashed with the iXtreme Burner MAX fw.
In LT+ v3.0, backups remain the same layout, but require new "AP2.5 topology data" in place of the older "AP2.5 replay sector" that was used in LT+ v2.x and older. Burned backups made for v2.x will not work on v3.0, and vice-versa. In the case of v3.0, the firmware would be looking for nonexistent topology data on a backup burned for v2.x. For v2.x, the firmware would be looking for nonexistent AP25 replay data on a backup burned for v3.0. Either way will not work, and will flag your 360 by failing AP2.5 challenges outright.

So until now there isn't any way to can dump not flash the 1175 original firmware.
Correct?
