Globe 360 Diagrams for Toshiba-Samsung and Hitachi -LG Posted by XanTium | July 7 00:49 EST

The team behind the Globe 360(info) DVD FW chip for the Xbox 360 (a dual-FW type of mod with DVD Drive-key 'Bypass') released their installation diagrams from the Hitachi-LG GDR-3120L and Toshiba-Samsung TS-H943 drive: [QUOTE] Added installation diagrams for Samsung and LG/Hitachi drives.

Thats alot of stuff to solder!

[chinozzz]

Holly freaking nightmare to solder...

[xboxexpert]

Yea man, after a closer look at this diagram I dont know if even I can solder directly to the TSOP of that chip.

Same as a PS2, no big deal..although aslong as we don't know how Micorsoft is going to fight back this firmware hack its kind of pointless to install a firmware chip when just reflashing the dvd chip does the same thing.

Its not that hard I am pretty sure you can do it xboxexpert (if you have done ps2's) but I don't think its worth it to do this since you need to cut a trace.. what if you want to remove it when/if there is a real modchip out ?

[xboxexpert]

Oh yea PS2's are the exact same...but not close together like that. Atleast PS2's skip one or two pins then solder...skip....solder.



For someone inexperienced this is ownage..

I might be installing these if Team Xecuter does not do better/easier than this

You would think that they could make a clip "like the dms4 E.Z.I" uses to fit over the chip.....but yea thats too many wires I might try the nme one....just to see what its about...lol..lol

[Varung]

this looks a lot harder then the PS2 all the PS2 Connections are larger you have more room + skipping pins.
I think only on V3 PS2 has small Connections like this and thats like 4 pins.
this would take few hours to do, the Samy one looks OK to do but it's still too much work.

my biggest problem installing a chip in my ps2 wasnt the points, it was the god damn dms 4 chip that i had to exchange 3 times before i got one that worked 100%.
In any case, yeah knock on wood, but i dont see any reason for this chip at this point

[Heet]

OMG so many people are going to fry 360's. Ive done a messiah and that makes those look mickey mouse.


Good luck fellas is all I can say lol.

[TeaTime]

and you prefer this solder nightmare instead of the NME-360...

[DaddyO21]

woah!

lets hope Devil360 or the anonymous hombrew guy give us something better than this.
