| Short description: | Modding the Xbox360 for fun and..... |
I bought an xbox360 from Vicarious. Because I don't want to use my -ahum- original copies I would like to run backups on this console. I have no idea yet what to do but if you have knowledge or would like to help out, feel free to do so.
The drive in the xbox was a DG-16D2S firmware 74850C. Loads of google hits. Most of them showing a tutorial with the executer mod probe kit thingamajig. We didn't have that so we were confident we needed to solder and hook up a ttl to serial conversion.
We almost messed up the xbox by the soldering which wasn't needed. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU , a case of RTFM. We knocked of a SMD resistor, but we managed to measure it to be 100 Ohm and made a dirty fix to replace it's function. Also we messed up the solderplatforms so now we have a challenge probing the drive. It can still be done with a small copper wire (I'm talking the width of a single strain of copper wire from a flexible UTP cable) by putting it in the hole near the solderpoint. We only need to attach 1 string to get the key.
We still need a ttl to serial which we are going to use an arduino for it.
