Team Xecuter Xbox 360 Firmware Hack Update -- Posted by XanTium on March 20 15:00 EST
Team Xecuter(info) posted another news post about the Xbox 360 Firmware Hack. If you missed the earlier reports about this hack, go here and here. From teamxecuter.com:
[QUOTE]
We have opened up a new forum dedicated to Xbox 360 Development
http://www.teamxecuter.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=69

We have made some progress with a new read/patch/write app and no doubt you will all be plugging in your drives to your PC and having some fun shortly - all for free too as no modchips required (and yes we still want to play!)

Here is what we envisage...
* Connect Xbox 360 DVD-ROM to PC
* App to update firmware with magic code
* Connect DVD-ROM back to 360 - and away you go

Also this site has some killer information: http://www.kev.nu/360/dvdshort.html [posted yesterday on x-s, more info on what it is here]

Obviousley the only use for this is piracy - hence you wont see any modchips (not from us at least - however they wouldn't be needed anyway - however we do have a few cheap tools to make life much easier - more on that soon). Still a long long way off from unsigned code - but it's a start....

Thanks to The Specialist for reviving the scene! We understand he doesn't want to release anything due to possible backlash - but there are many of us who would - and will.
Keep your eyes on our 360 forums for updates...

BTW: Qwix(info)2 Rules! :-)

I love xbox live. I wouldn't mind trying out this hack, but frankly I do not think it is worth it. I can wait for a chip, no matter how long it take. Having live greatly outways this hack.

Yes , thats why i love Team Xecuter , good quality chip on XBox great minds , this patch is not for piracy people , yes it does run backups , but you must look far more than that , one of the games must have an exploit to enable homebrew , one of us will find it soon.

Linux , Emulators , Homebrew apps , homebrew games are just around the corner.

Yeah i hope they can somehow make it possible to switch between an untouched drive-image (for live) and a patched one.

You'd probably need two flash chips. I imagine someone could make that possible and start selling premodded drives.

odds are you'd get banned from live
or they could even go so far as to make it unable to function properly until you revert to the original firmware

This is awesome. I knew the chip-makers would be paying attention. XEcuter definately has the talent to get this up and running...

Personally, I am going to wait for the hack to be out a while, and see what happens before I open my 360. Good news today!

i think this is so funny. if they can get it to work by just putting the dvd drive into the comp and flashing it bill will go crazy. everyone will have the firmware hacked. i like the idea of backing up my games but still would rather be playing of some type of hard drive. its nice to be able to buy a game open and put it on the hard drive never to open the case again. thats some killer work from them.
