Raincoat Flashing Tutorial Options

[hangover]

I have searched the forum and the web but cant find a single comprehensive guide on how to flash a winbond TSOP using raincoat , i have an AID disc but all i've read says that it wont work.

[Trebz]

Heimdall gave me a guide for this some time ago. I'll try and find it when i get home from work and post it here.

It was a bit rough and ready as Heimdall amended it whilst he was helping me.

It might get you up and running.

Thanks, or any other method for flashing a winbond chip will do. I have splinter cell and a usb adapter and a flash drive that works but i cant find a decent guide for that method either.

this is the giude i used way back when http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=61901

it uses the 007 game exploit, but the raincoat section still applies


oh yeah, if you have vista or windows 7 youll need to get putty for telnet http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatha...y/download.html

Still using XP on my main pc and i dont have a 007 disc that will work but i do have splinter cell, the box i want to flash is chipped but i want to remove the chip and use it to repair other xbox's that i have. Chip is a Xenium and if i could get a bios for it that will allow me to remove the dvd that doesnt read at all. Heimdall told me what to use but i cant find any seeders for the Hexen file.

Not wanting to confuse matters but i did say i'd pass you Heimdall's info. It may not be of help as Lordvader has posted you some info.

This info was for my old 1.4 which had a Winbond on board, my 1.4 motherboard is now dead so i did not manage to run through the tutorial. I have recently used the EvoX dashboard approach to TSP flash my new 1.2/1.3 Xbox, it worked faultlessly. I managed to flash both Ind 5003 and X2.4981 to a Hynix chip. I was actually shocked at how easy it was with the EvoX dashboard.

From Heimdall:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK.

The easiest way to TSOP is to softmod first. I know it sounds crazy, but it's true! It's not the quickest method, but it only adds about 5 minutes to the process, and it's worth it because it's reliable. It also works without the need for burning DVDs or CDs......!!!!!! I've broken this into sections.

1. Get The Files

Everything you'll need is available on Xbins:

- Krayzie 1.1.1 gamesave
- EvolutionX dashboard 3935
- Your preferred BIOS, plus the tools to configure it if you go for X2.4981 or Evox M8+ (or M7)

If your current MS dash isn't 5960 then you'll also need to update your current dash to make the softmod work, in which case let me know and I'll talk you through that. Let's assume that it is 5960 for the time being.......

2. Softmod The Xboxa

Load the gamesaves (there are two for Splinter Cell, you need both) onto your Xbox hard drive using the MS dash. Run Splinter cell, load the linux profile, the exploit will trigger. Follow the instructions to softmod the Xbox. Copy the backups from your Xbox to your PC when it prompts you to. Again, while it may seem perverse (given that you want to use EvolutionX dash to do the flashing), install UnleashX as a dash. The reason is that UnleashX has a file manager, while Evox doesn't, and you need a file manager.

3. Configure The BIOS

I can't stress enough that you need to make sure you use a 256k BIOS that works on a 1.4 Xbox, because anything else will leave you needing a chip. For iND.BIOS.5003 and X2.4981 you're safe with a 1.4, but for Evox M8 you have to use the version that DOESN'T have 1.6 in the filename. The copy I got from Xbins is EvolutionX M8plus Bios.rar, and the BIOS you need is M8plus.bin, NOT M8plus_16.bin.

Now, because you're having trouble burning DVDs you'll have to take a bit of care with the next step. Other than the warning above, nothing you do should brick your Xbox, you'll just have to rerun the gamesave exploit to get access to fix any problems. Essentially you need to configure your BIOS so it knows where to load your dash from. The softmod has already put the UnleashX dash at E:\Dashboard\default.xbe, so select that as your first dash. For iND-BIOS.5003 you just edit the config file:

DASH1=\Device\Harddisk0\Partition1\dashboard\default.xbe

For X2.4981 and Evox M8+ you run the config tool, load the BIOS, and edit "Boot Partitions And Executables" to point

to E:\Dashboard\default.xbe as the first dash. Also select your preferred disk configuration - for one large F partition select "Partition 6 Takes Rest Of The Drive", for F and G select "Partition 6 Takes up to 137GB / Partition 7 Takes Rest". Also uncheck the "DVD Drive Check" box, then save the BIOS - give it a sensible name so you can find it in the next step!.

If you want to use a different dash you just install that wherever you want on your hard disk, and change the BIOS configuration to point to that instead of UnleashX. It's also worth having a fallback dash - I use
DASH2=\Device\Harddisk0\Partition1\Dashboard\EvolutionX\evoxdash.xbe

(E:\Dashboard\EvolutionX\evoxdash.xbe)

because I leave Evox on all my Xboxes after step 4.

4. Put The Flashing Files Onto The Xbox

Create a directory on the E drive to put the Evox dashboard in - mine's in E:\Dashboard\EvolutionX\. Use ftp to copy all of the Evox dash files and directories into that directory. Put your chosen 256k BIOS into the E:\Dashboard\EvolutionX\BIOS directory on your Xbox. If you are using iND-BIOS.5003 select either the .06 version or the .67 version, depending on whether you want F only, or F and G.

5. Flash The Xbox

Now you're in the home straight. Use the UnleashX file manager to run the evoxdash.xbe you just installed - E:\Dashboard\EvolutionX\evoxdash.xbe. Select System Utils - Flash BIOS, scroll down to your BIOS, and select it with A, and press Y to flash.

When it's done flashing the Xbox will shutdown, and when you reboot it will load your flashed BIOS, and UnleashX will load - but this time the splash screen will be different, and the Xbox LED will remain green.


6. Things That Might Go Wrong....

I can only think of two things that might go wrong.

A. You might have a Winbond TSOP, in which case you'll need modified steps 4 and 5.

B. You might have a flash type that's not in the standard evox.ini, in which case you'll get this error message:

Manufacturers ID 09 Device ID 00
!! Flash Not Writeable !!

To fix that you just paste this into your evox.ini on top of the existing Flash section:

I dont mean to be ungrateful but since i dont have a 007 disc the above is pretty much useless to me and there are no seeders to the Hexen file so i cant use that, also i said that the xbox is chipped.

raincoat is raincoat no matter how you run it, you wanted a guide on flashing with raincoat, there it is

now if you need help running raincoat, thats a different story

since the xbox is chipped easiest way to go will be a softmod installer, look for frosty's rescue disc, you can install a softmod from that, disable the chip and it should load the softmod, from there (assuming you have soldered the write-enable points) you can use eurasia flashdisc to flash the TSOP, just get the disc (google it) and burn to a cd-rw, load it, it shoudl eject the tray and you load another cd-rw with the bios you want to flash, named bios.bin (same as for a modchip with cromwell) after that load frosty's again and rebuild C without the softmod and your done, you can remove the chip for use in another xbox
