Not had any time at all to work on this - so we knocked this together last night to give budding coders something to have a crack at
pls no questions - if you now what you are doing all your answers will be on this page
This hasn't really been tested and may need adjusting - but it basically controls d0 and a15 similar to the matrix for flashing your tsop
TBH i dont know why this hasnt been released to the scene before now as the code is really really simple

some info that this code was based on (found on xboxhacker.net)
Programming the Onboard TSOP using a X2PRO or X2LITE.
This can be done and has been done on 1.0 boxes.
1) Connect TSOP Write lines (See matrix instructions)
2) Ground A15 (T1 on the matrix instructions)
3) Program X2Pro with EvoxMatrixTSOP bios
4) Turn power on and after 1/2 second turn DIP switch 4 off
5) Wait for EvolutionX to come up
6) Remove A15 Ground
7) Use EvolutionX to Flash a 1 meg bios to TSOP
Make sure your Evox xbe is named and placed somewhere that the EvoxMatrixTSOP bios can find it. I used a CD-RW with Slayer's 2.0 disk and Flashed 4974 onto the TSOP.
Look at the TSOP Flash Matrix Instructions floating around for pin locations etc.
This works with both the PRO and LITE but ONLY on 1.0 boxes until a EvoxMatrixTSOP bios is released for 1.1.
BTW, After you remove the A15 ground but before you flash the TSOP, if you use EvolutionX to backup your Box, you will have a copy of the orignal bios from your box. But you must do steps 1-6 first before you do the backup or you will just backup the X2.

You really don'y need the PIC or the Code to do this. Just follow the directions below the code. Turning the X2 off after you turn on the Xbox is not that hard to do. It just takes a few times before you learn when to do it. After that, its easy to repeat.
Just remember to use a boot CD or have Evox on your hard drive in a place the EvoxMatrixTSOP bios can find it. Slayer's 2.0 disk works great for this, Just flash the TSOP with the Bios on his disk, then you can copy a different Bios to your harddrive and flash that.

It says to turn off switch 4 on X2 Pro, can i aussume i can just take the On/Off jumper off the X2 Lite and uflash it with the X2 4976.02?
nexus2
Apr 8 2003, 07:56 PM
You just take the jumper off the Lite. You need to create a 1 meg bios image with 4 copies of 4976.02 in it. This is what I have programed in my TSOP and it works great.
The Lite is a little scary to use, you must program it with the EvoxMatrixTSOP bios to do this. If you can't get Evox to Boot (it may take a few tries to get the timing down.) then you may not beable to reprogram the Lite back to a work Bios. You can't run a box with the MatrixTSOP bios. It is only used to flash the TSOP.
But it does work. Several people have used this method with a Lite and Flashed the TSOP.

This is all good if you have code on your tsop..,but what if there is no code on the onboard tsop? Ive tried this on my 1.0 that I flashed with emigah and hosed. I forgot to disable 15,21. so I bought the x2 . Box fires up with any bios but the Matrix_tsop. flip dip number 4 ...1/2 second into boot it goes into the on/off cycle mode with red /green flashing button. Timed the switch 4 a hundred times. Am I just missing something? Oh and I barowed a buddies Matrix and the whole proccess acted exactly the same. also I was doing the t1 to ground. Any help is apriciated:)

has to be a working bios on the onboard rom to do wthis method
only other way to fixed a hosed rom is to take it off and programme manually (but of course 99% of you are not going to do this or dont have the tools/skills)
so basically you just need to fit a mod and use the bios on this
if you want to use XBL then i recommend selling the box (with the mod) and getting a new one
perhaps not wanted you wanted to hear tho bro ?

Hippo, your code does every thing your say it does. I've done quite a few tests with it and the flash enable works well, the D0 enable works well. The power to most modchips the way they are wired up is still active on pins 25 and 32 even if 3.3V is not supplied to them by the Pic of the usual power supply on the board. To completely disable the chip you need to isolate those two pins from the rest. The led doesn't work real well because I think a 220ohm resistor might be a bit high. I will look into that later on tonight.

^^^^^ Personally I feel flashing the TSOP is crap. If you can't afford the $1.79 40LF020 then you tried to buy it from someone who marked it up too high

The led doesn't work real well because I think a 220ohm resistor might be a bit high. I will look into that later on tonight
^^^ drives 3.3v at 15ma and no problems so far. The chip uses 10ma.
Hippo, your code does every thing your say it does.
^^^^ Finally a man of reason. To disable the chip pull 22 and 24 high and use 10k to ground same as the homebrew switch I'm thinking. That's why I reserved pin 2 it's already set up on the pcb's I had made up. It's all tested on XBL thopugh and okay as is.

I 100% agree with you
We've been saying this from day one ("we" are Xecuter btw in case you hadn't realised)
This is simply for those that want to screw around with it
However it still does not detract away from the fact that the post you started really was nothing to do with this particular thread - the code you've made is child play but we never included it on the Xecuter design due to the fact that software enable / disable isnt what we feel "hard" secure - so people may have logged onto XBL with their mods still enabled. Don't say this is crap as its happened to many many people - you only have to read around.
Keep up your input to the scene.

No additional functions other then you no longer need the X2Pro installed to play backups, imports, etc... But also No more XBL
Yes it is reffering to the On Board Ms Bios. Its not a Rom but rather a flash rom chip.

PsiDOC
May 11 2003, 08:48 AM
The reason for the 30 odd errors are because the forum will not allow the necessary Tab spaces that are needed for Mpasm assemble the code correctly. Anyone that is familiar with the layout for MPasm will be able to edit the code up into an assemble-able in a couple of minuites.
Just 1 question though Ubergeek........
According to my calculation the D0 line will be disconnected after approx 1/4 second not 1/2.
In the Long_ subroutine you use the 8th bit of TMR0 to trigger the Decrease count register, so this means only bits 0 to 6 (0 to 127 in decimal) are counted in TMR 0.
This means for D0:
(t0pre * TMR0 * Count register) / Pic instruction clock (1Mhz or 1000000)
(255*128*8) /1000000 = 0.261120 seconds, which is only 50% of what you state on the file.
Obviously the quick fix is to change the count register to 16, however I am just curious. Is the 1/4 second correct?
The A15 line disconnects after about 43 seconds, so that seems fine.

I think the real question is that if you already have an x2lite, or a pro, or any solder-in mod ... why would you want to flash your TSOP, unless your box is already banned from live. Then when Xbox-Next comes out, your box will have no resale value. Just my .02.

heh heh yes i know that now found that out yesterday also complex's loader which is cool now supports every version if u use a plugin wit the original 1.0 version. dunno if u will know this but ok so u do the exploit by putting boot.cfg pheonix.raw and default.xbe on the xbox hard drive via the mega x key memory card and then u should have a iso of the pheonix loader 1.3 files on cd or dvd right and run that program and load the new bios and then u could take that out and the effects will be permanent right. and then lets say i wanna run doomx from a dvd r i could put that in and it would run ok right? also do u put your bios file which u name to xboxrom.bin in pheonix boot folder imagebld folder or in the root where the 3 main files for the exploit are
thanks in advance and just in case above all else i patched and basically signed the default.xbe just to make sure everything goes ok.

Is there a flash_tsop bios compatible with 1.1 mobo's now?
why use the matrix tsop bios? just ftp a exploit like audio_signed_phoenix_bios_loader once its on your hdd take out your mod load phoenix and flash your tsops works on 1.0 1.1 1.2 & 1.3 but 1.3 only holds 1 256k bios

uhm 1.2's are 256kb bios like the 1.3's
However - always check the mobo & tsop itself just in case.....
I had a 1.2 that was really a 1.1:
Jan 2003 date, serial ending with 30xxx - but when opened up had this strange thing inside and seal/sticker wasn't tampered with or been opened:
1.1 mobo with the normal single row psu connector
samsung dvd - was reason why I bought it
8gb western digital h/d not the usual 10gb black seagate or better white 10.2gb seagate
(h/d was made in Nov 2002 like samsung dvd was so this must have been some last bit of 1.1 they put together they had lying around)
didn't check the tsop coz fitted cheapmod in there but would have been a 1mb even though the date and the S pack box would have implied this should of been a 1.2 with it's atx psu and 256kb bios
you can flash a 1.1 tsop if it's a commonly used ST or Hynix type of mobo
though I normally fit a lpc cheapmod on there with the header pins on ver 1.1's if the LPC holes aren't usually filled in with solder

are you disabling the modchip 1 second after power on?

The whole chip?
I thought it was just the 4th DIP switch.
Well, anyways I tried both.
When I turn the chip off after one second it tries to load my TSOP and just frags... (trying to fix bad tsop)
Should I keep trying, or is this not going to work to fix the bad tsop?
