C4Eva is the man....

I've been going on the IRCs and forums like this1 for about 2 weeks, I'm sooo happy, good thing it's the lite-on that got pushed back with 1.61, at least better for me....

but c4eva said FW was not detectable

And he hasn't retracted that statement. He just said that this new firmware will be more efficient and indistinguishable in all aspects from the original, which i suppose means it will be impossible to tell apart even in vendor mode, bypassing any fears we had about Microsoft being able to read the firmware? We'll see.

New DVD FW in dev/test - ixtreme LT (Lite Touch)
>> C4Eva announced he's working on a new firmware on IRC:
"[c4eva] new fw in dev/test - ixtreme LT (Lite Touch) - more efficient , minimal patching , all aspects of fw indistinguisable from orig, no more bans, No ETA!"

based on the highlighted it sounds like with the previous firmwares it was possible to see if the drive was flashed or not, it also says "no more bans" which means the firmware WAS the reason for these recent bans...

yeah this is all too much for me. Lite touch? Does that mean that this is not gonna be new revolutionary firmware for the benq, samsung , hitachi? Only for liteon? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining. Im just wondering out loud.

The firmware being non-detectable is clearly in reference to it being read from the flash and inspected. That is probably not happening. It's most likely a flaw in it's operation that was never before recognised because M$ never expolited that feature previously. So another hole plugged, and the mouse again runs before the cat.

You know what, it's moments like this that shows the spirit of the community. The recognition and respect displayed towards the hackers and each other in general would never be represented in the harsh corporate world.

Love yous all!

FAIL... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

"Sorry. ixtreme all versions is/are detectable or their behavior is detectable therefore hence a new FW is being worked on. For those with ixtreme I would advice no further use of 360 until this firmware is released. Until then, god bless 360scene. No technical data was being as to WHY its being detected all of a sudden."

Were you running iXtreme?
If yes, why were you running iXtreme but never booted a backup?

actually he kind of admits it was the firmware by saying no more bans, if the firmware wasn't detectable in the first place how will a new firmware cause no more bans, it takes courage to face up that he had flaws in the firmware and try to detect them instead of being in denial and saying no no no it can't be it MUST be the WaReZ.
good on him for constantly evolving the firmware after some of the shit the so called "scene" has put him through.
