Free60 JTAG/SMC XeLL Hack for Jasper-16mb Motherboards Options

[Poopchute]

Someone correct me if Im wrong but...cant a person do this JTAG hack while they have a 7371 or lower kernel...Then Upgrade to a 8xxx kernel and then be able to play wave 4 games? Its just if you upgrade before the hack then youre screwed...

I am WELL happy to see this release and excited that hopefully the 256 and 512 might get released someday too (as mine is 256).

Just a pity that the bann thread is nearly 50 pages and this thread you can count on one hand

I bet everyone wish thay had a moddable console now instead of a banned one (I now have both ) - Dam you MS

They're up on xbins, now.

I'm starting to get really confused on what type of Jasper I have.

I bought a brand new arcade 360 from walmart, (no HDD, just a controler, and some game I can't remember off the top of my head) 2 days after the first reports of the jtag hack to enable homebrew back in August.

First off, I know for a fact that my 360 is a Jasper. I know this from doing the power voltage check near the barcode on the back of the 360. My numbers matched what was described as to having a Jasper.

Now, as for telling if I have 16mb, 256mb, or 512mb, I have no clue.

And here's another confusing part. I read online that the Jasper has an internal MU (memory unit). I read that you have to goto Settings, and Memory, and it should show up. So, with no HDD, and no external memory card inserted, I went into Settings, and Memory, and nothing was there. There was no icon of the 360 machine, with any description or anyhting. The screen was just blank......

So, do I have a 16mb, 256mb, or 512mb??

Thanks for the help.

p.s. my dashboard is 2.0.7357

You have a 16MB Jasper.

WRONG! Updating to the 8x dash will also change the bootloader code to one that doesn't have a vulnerability (at least, that we know of).

where are the installation diagrams for the jasper jtag? can't find them anywhere online

[Poopchute]

Can anyone confirm that its really out for the 256 and 512 on xbins? Is that for real?

[lenselijertje]

Yes it's real, now i need something to read/flash my nand, and no lpt cable because i have a 512mb nand so it will take ages to backup.

heres the info:

Finally the Jasper JTAG Hack is here

This is XELL (Redline99's XeLL) inserted into 6723 Jasper-Kernel.

Don't wonder about the Filesize, its correct like that. It just flashes the beginning of the NAND so your console specific data like MAC adress will stay.

Of course you should have a working backup of your NAND before you proceed.

*** NOTE ***

It's for the Large Block Jaspers, 256MB and 512MB

*** NOTE ***

Just flash with:

LPT
nandpro lpt: -w256/-w512 jasper_6723_hack_for_256mb_512mb.bin 0

USB
nandpro usb: -w256/-w512 jasper_6723_hack_for_256mb_512mb.bin 0

JTAG wiring for reading/writing nand is the same on all board revisions.

Wiring for Xell to run is the same on all non-xenon consoles (same wiring as a falcon or zephyr)

Yes you can, but you need to do a Dual Nand boot, with a cygnos v2 or a 16mb xD card. You also need the rebooter. Keep in mind that you cannot reboot into the latest kernel yet, only 8455 i think.

[lenselijertje]

cygnos doesnt work with 256/512mb jasper consoles (yet), but they are working on it

i'm building a jtag flasher with usb, because reading a 512mb nand file using lpt port would take too long.
I read with usb it takes only about 1 hour

[MasterGouken]

Great news! I've got a 512mb jasper just waiting for this

[miragui]

Just flashed my 16Mb Jasper. Now I've got my Cpu-Key

[lenselijertje]

just flashed my 512MB jasper

Too bad only linux works, will have to wait for hdmi and homebrew support for jasper console

[cocker80]

just flashed my 512MB jasper

Too bad only linux works, will have to wait for hdmi and homebrew support for jasper console

Tried to flash my 256mb jasper and all i get is a black screen, did you use the same wiring diagram as the falcon?

Thanks HotKnife420, straight to the point short n simple.
Now all im waiting for is the Cygnos v2 512mb Jasper support and im sold

I have heard about unsigned XEX being able to run on homebrew 360's , and being able to play 360 games from USB HDD... then again this is not yet public, or might never become public.

Off topic, I can understand how much time and money goes into the work that's done to get this point, but what is the reason for not going public?

Is it due to M$ being able implement a fix, and effectively shutting this vulnerability down? Or is it an issue with more time and research?

I really respect these intelligent people and thank them for their coding, technical skills and info released so far. But I personally don't fully understand why it's kept private at the moment.

I guess that they have their reasons and I don't deserve an explanation, but I'm just curious as to why.

How would i tell the size of my NAND mate?
