Xbox DVD Firmware Hacked

Posted by greg

source: xboxhacker

Looks like Thespecialist was able to successfully boot a backed up DVD on an original Xbox without any modchip or softmod - just using custom hacked firmware for the 8050L dvd-rom drive. The great news is the GDR3120 drive (in the Xbox360) runs a similar firmware version. This may open up a few possibilities!

I already did that the second day after I got my 360, so I don’t know what backup programs everyone else uses, but I didn’t have to do anything to the firmware of the 360 disc drive

I already no how to do that without any hacked software or soft or hard modded xbox. All u have to do is have nero start smart and/or a dvd menu so that the xbox reconginezes it!!!

yea… I am jus waiting for a mod chip or a soft mod or something that will allow me to play backed up games.

I really loved Call of Duty 2 game. I thought it was truely next-gen because of the smooth 60 frames per second motion topped with amazing graphics. I thought Splinter Cell on Xbox was the best game, both in terms of graphics and fun but when i played splinter cell yesterday, Icouldnt believe how crappy it looked and felt. That feeling is what i call a true next-gen feeling that Call of Duty 2 made me experience.

Icant wait for both the mod chip and other similar games to come out and i pay just $2.50 at family video to rent and burn it.

That time, i will say loudly and proudly,

FUCK YOU MICROSOFT!!!

ok im not a fan of the xbox but i dont hate it. but what i do hate is bill gates and microsoft. There such wankers always doin shitty updates wivout tellin you. Also now microsoft said there going to challenge apple wiv a portable media player. I mean come on there wankers, apple has only jsut started to become popular again and microsoft wont give them a chance. Microsoft are just scared of competiion!

The only way hackers would be safe from Microsoft is if they stoped sharing the exploits and hacks. This way it would be private to everyone but yourself, and microsoft wont know about it unless they discovered it themselves. That’s the best chance right there. It then also leaves the hacking community dry, so it’s a pain in the ass to work with ever time it gets patched up, you have to find another way around.

yea…

i havent updated my xbox 360 since i purchased it. I havent comeonline with it so mine is still a virgin, fucking microsoft’s 1″ dicky update will not come anywhere near my x360…

come to think of it, if they are releasing updates… that is only effecting the HDD, right?

So modders still have a chancewith the actual hardware… not the software in the HDD…if that is right, then we will soon see a modchip!!!!

Hurray!!

If an Xbox game only lets you see the vidoe files on a PC, Then how the hell are you going to do it with an xbox 360 one
