Using Xbox Live With A Chameleon Chip Installed, how do I do this Options

[Kaos_e]

I am about to install a chameleon chip on my xbox, but before I do I would like to know how I can play on Xbox Live without having to open my xbox and turn off the chip manually. I heard something of an option on the dashboard that will turn it off for you, I believe it was called the TSOP. Any info will be appreciated.

Thank You

If you've installed it correctly, and you've used the jumpers to select mode 4, turing it on via Eject disables the mod chip, turning it on via the power button uses bank 0, and pressing both at once uses bank 1

This assumes you connected the "P" and "E" wires to Power & Eject.

Ok thanks, but in case I do not connect the P and E wires, is there another way that I could disable the chip?

if u do not want to solder .. u can also use Evo-x dashboard to switch to the tssop

Wait- the eject to turn off chip function can only be accomplished in mode 4?!

I thought this was in all the modes...

I have heard of this before but was unable to find it in the Evo-x dashboard, can you be specific as to what I do to accomplish this, I do not want to make a mistake when it comes to this kind of a matter. Thanks

You need to add specific lines into your EvoX ini. Here's mine for example:

As you can see, under my "Chameleon Settings", there are options that say "Disable Cham"-that's used to turn off the chip.

Thanks for the code. so after I turn off the chip does it turn on as normal the next time I turn the xbox on?

Nope, I accidentally left my chip in mode 1 after programming and the Power and Eject buttons dont have any effect on which bank it boots.

You have to be in Mode 4 for the Power and Eject buttons to do anything (at least with the firmware in my Chameleon).

Cheers

When you turn-off your chip, it will quickly reboot with the chip off. The next time you turn on your xbox though, it will be back on.

I used your evox.ini just as its posted here but when I pick "chameleon settings" it goes to a blank screen. Im in mode 2 right now with my matrix, no solder mods. Do I need to be in a different mode for the chameleon settings to work? Im using evox ver 1.8.3752 and x2 bios 4977
