what u need!
a unmoded or moded xbox
ftp access to your xbox eg 007 or mech assault save hack or hdd hot swap if you already have the bigfont exploits u can use this to ftp to your xbox just make sure you delete phoenix and bigfonts from the c:/drive and the xboxdash.xbe from the e:/drive and rename all font files and evox.ini back to default!
ok i'm not going to go on about how to ftp in to you xbox as its on just about every tutorial on here
download Audio_Signed_Phoenix_Bios_Loader. i've set up phoenix1.2 its all signed but you need to find the rc4key and 4977bfm your self i cant post it on ***DO NOT GIVE LINKES***
again if u already have phoenix with bigfont hack you already have the rc4key and bios.
now open Audio_Signed_Phoenix_Bios_Loader.rar your have 2 folders c/stuff and e/stuff copy the contents of c/stuff to your xbox c:/drive then open e:/stuff/tdata and replace the fffe0000 thats in your xbox tdata with this one! you might want to back up your old one frist.
now copy the rest of pheonix to your e:/drive you should now have the following in your e drive
boot.cfg with the rc4key in linux.xbe phoenix.raw xboxrom.bin fffe0000 replaced in your xbox E:/tdata folder
and the following in your c drive evoxdash.xbe evox.ini skins every thing else in c should be default!
now reboot your xbox go to music put in a audio cd hit copy then copy again then press A phoenix will boot and then go in to evox all done:-)
now u can use live just turn on your xbox with out useing the audio trick and your ok 4 live
this will also fix the keeps rebooting after xbox is turned off for a long time with font hack and cant boot xboxdash.xbe with font hack as it boots to the xboxdash.xbe first
u can also add a 2nd bios in phoeinx if u want just call it xboxrom2.bin

to the first reply i've connected to live 15 times today no probs you see the only file your changing is the st.db live does not look for this but if you want to be really careful you can put the old st.db back before you go on live then use the 007 trick to ftp back in and put the new st.db back when u want to run backups again

This is fairly close to what I am doing, but I have taken it a step further and have modified the xboxrom.bin file on the e: drive to point to all the evox files (found on c: originally) on the e: drive. Therefore you have an untouched c: drive. Check out the tutorial by Tutu for a step by step on how to modify the xboxrom.bin file with XBTool - it really does seem to be the best software hack right now...
Thus far I have had no problems with XBox Live - but as mentioned in other threads, this could change at any given time depending on what M$ does...

so far ive moded 5 xboxs with this v1.0 v1.1 v1.2 no probs the v1.2 was fresh out the box and already had the live dash on! one of the v1.0 xboxs was sent to me with a bad tsop and a matrix i used the matrix with the 4034 orginal bios to fix the tsop and phoenix to load the 4977 bios it works fine on live to
i've sent the xbox with the bad tsop back now but ive been thinking can phoenix fix a 100% bad tsop plz dont flame me i know it prob wont work because if you boot with mod evox can only see the mod but my idea was 1.put orgnal bios on matrix
2.install audio phoenix
3boot to ms dash take out matrix then load phoenix and flash tsop with evox
if anyone wants to try this plz post results
also dont tell me to use matix tsop bios it only works if you have atleast 1x256k orginal bios on the tsop i've tryed it shit loads of times

When I connect to my xbox using hdd driver, I don't see an actual C: drive or E: drive. Instead I see a bunch of folders like audio, fonts, system, udata, tdata etc. Could someone explain how to determine which folders are on the c: drive, and which ones are on the e: drive?
