Bump for Snaakkee....he just modded a 360 for me with wonderful results.

He is truly a talented "engineer" AKA Mad Scientist?

He's fast too.

Not that SNAAKE needs another endorsement, but I just got my Xbox back from him and it works perfect. He got it back to me in about a week(that included a Holiday) so turn around time was fantastic! I'll defiantly be using him for anther xbox in the future. Thanks SNAAKE -

now that Megaupload is down it's gonna be a hell of a lot harder to get the goods for modded 360s. Sucks!

My original 360 was modded by drive firmware. I got as many games as possible then realised I only played on a few and didn't really appreciate the game.
Also lost live as I was banned.
In the end got another 360 and left that standard which I prefer. Got live and I appreciate the game more. I never buy a game when it comes out. Id rather wait till a birthday, Xmas or wait until it's been out a few wks and get it on eBay for a big discount as someone has completed it.
Then again, I have a ps3 that is modded so have the best of both worlds.

slims are so much better/easier to deal with. dissembling/wiring is easier too.

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #86 on:** January 25, 2012, 11:13:08 pm »

On the topic of slim modding, do you just use the 50cm wire that comes with the tx cool-runner? I've got mine all modded up, and i'm doing an 8cm wire to the TX slim POST QSB, thinking i'd try out the different lengths to tweak the boot times. Currently I'm at about 20s on a 47cm wire, and it's fairly reliable on the 20s, but I'm really hoping on getting down to 10s boot times. Any suggestions?

Hopefully some time soon I get a chance to take it all apart soon and really benchmark the different lengths better. From what I've heard, the full 50cm seems to be the best so far...

SNAAKE · « **Reply #87 on:** January 26, 2012, 12:51:31 am »

use the included wire. the blue one is longer for a reason. it supposed to help boot slims faster. mine is almost always instant and sometimes about 5 sec.

I love the TX coolrunner. comes with the self stick pad and all colored wires cut to size and tinted

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #88 on:** January 26, 2012, 01:32:27 am »

Yeah, I've used their wires for everything, except for the POST wire. Something doesn't sit right with me, having that much slack wire around. I feel that the serpentining is a much better solution. I can still get the desired 50cm with the QSB. Another reason for concern is that having the full 50cm wire, it's actually susceptible to cross talk from some of the nearby capacitors that provide higher voltages for the cpu. Something you should keep in mind during installations. It will help avoid the sometimes sporadic boot times.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #89 on:** January 31, 2012, 02:21:13 am »

yeah I know about the wires but that sounds like a myth lol. never really ran into any problem with wire placement.

that phat xbox with falcon V3 never glitched. apparently its not possible at the moment. from what I hear it has a "split CB" with dual bootloader or something. glad this is not the FIRST system I tried because that would have been very discouraging. the very first slim I glitched went smoove

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #90 on:** January 31, 2012, 05:06:51 pm »

I'm sorry I'm hijacking your thread. At least I can say you have a very reputable amount of knowledge. One of the best on here, for sure!

For anyone interested, here's a picture of the problem area you should avoid running wires around. I think it only really applies to phats, tbh.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #91 on:** February 07, 2012, 01:06:06 pm »

slims are...sexy

my brother just gave me a free xbox because it came with his dell laptop. glitched this in like 40 minutes w00t!

check out buy/sell it will probably be up for sale. trying to see if I have any use for a second console(or another arcade cabinet lol)

joeH · « **Reply #92 on:** February 23, 2012, 06:50:34 pm »

Not that it's needed by now, but wanted to say that I had a Xbox 360 Slim JTAG'd and everything works great! Thanks again!

SNAAKE · « **Reply #93 on:** March 15, 2012, 03:39:11 pm »

peep my mgs theme for freestyle dashboard. anybody wants a custom theme I can do it for a fee. its time consuming but I can

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #94 on:** March 15, 2012, 04:49:55 pm »

I used gamespy back in the day for Halo tunneling, and then switched quickly to XBConnect. Towards the end of halo one tunneling, the earlier versions of X-link started gaining popularity, but Kai missed that boat.

It's actually really great if you can set up a DD-WRT with the Kai daemon. No need to have any PCs running, just let the router handle the tunneling.

But back to your question about if I ever use it? Only if I really want to tunnel a classic game with a couple friends. We never sit and play randoms on it any more.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #95 on:** March 15, 2012, 07:41:03 pm »

what is this "tunneling" business? I am guessing you can only play games with system link support features like halo and racing games? or ANY game?

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #96 on:** March 16, 2012, 10:08:09 am »

Yeah, your client (xbc, kai, etc.) links up over the internet to anyone running the same program, and that's what creates the link (NAT Route/tunnel). You can play any system link game over the internet. Sould work for any console with network support, including handhelds.

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #97 on:** March 16, 2012, 10:31:46 am »

Yeah, since xbox live came out for Halo 2, there hasn't really been many people at all on Kai, but it's still the "most populated" that I've found.

It's really only fun if you've got other friends you can't LAN with, or that one player doesn't have Live.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #98 on:** April 01, 2012, 05:30:03 pm »

newest batch of tx coolrunners are beast. dont know if they changed anything or whatever. did a falcon and 256mb jasper. both boot in like 2 seconds.

chillinwater · « **Reply #99 on:** April 09, 2012, 07:55:23 pm »

What can I do with 3 older xbox360's all displayng rrod, one was fixed before, not by microsoft, not by myself.
Is there any trade-in value to these "SNAAKE SKINS" or any other options?

-3for1 trade + $ for a jtag

-fix 1 and jtag keep 2 + $ ??

I live in California so shipping would suck to NY.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #100 on:** April 09, 2012, 08:19:37 pm »

I have no idea how to fix any redrings lol..

I will let u know if any interest at all. all of are hdmi? only real use I may have are the dvd drives assuming they work. know which dvd drives?

chillinwater · « **Reply #101 on:** April 10, 2012, 01:28:04 pm »

Sorry I dont.
I assume I can pull the info from the label on the back. One of them may be hdmi capable but they are all older so I think no.
(Gotta go look at them in storage)

I have to correct myself on two of them, they were sent back to Microsoft while still under there extended warranty\repair policy, but have since rrod'd and were no longer covered.

It brings a tear to my eye if I have to just throw them out...ahh the memories!!

Donkbaca · « **Reply #102 on:** April 10, 2012, 01:31:20 pm »

Don't throw them out, ebay them, you will at least get something for them

Snaake-

Have you setup a coinops Xbox?

I have a spare Xbox that's apart and has a solderless chip (it's flakey)

Interested in a permanent install and a hard drive upgrade. I can provide Coinops files

yeah I have my own xbox with coinops. its just transferring the files. same as any other emulators.

PM sent with all the info.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #105 on:** June 20, 2012, 08:17:22 pm »

oh forgot to bump.

dont update your dashboard to the newest june12 dash. it blocks the RGH hack. for phats its probably permanent. BEWARE!!

SNAAKE · « **Reply #106 on:** June 20, 2012, 11:05:34 pm »

yeah XS has been dead for a while. they never update the front page anymore.

rgh3+new coolrunner is supposed to defeat everything. meaning even corona boards(slim xboxes after aug2011) can be RGHed

dont know about phat xboxes. personally I dont like working with phats.

DillonFoulds · « **Reply #107 on:** June 23, 2012, 12:23:50 am »

Keep an eye on XS, a former mod is returning (HSDemonz). Not a particular fan of the guy, but he has no life from what I recall, so he'll get the job done.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #108 on:** June 30, 2012, 02:03:31 pm »

actually I was wondering whatever happened to HSDemonz lol

404 · « **Reply #109 on:** June 30, 2012, 03:32:24 pm »

XS will be back up with more news and a forum upgrade soon.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #110 on:** July 05, 2012, 04:22:55 pm »

coolrunner 3 looking good. its supposed to glitch everything including all new xboxes with "corona" boards

SNAAKE · « **Reply #111 on:** August 06, 2012, 10:41:59 pm »

lol "OLD" jtag is so eZ now. with all the software/hardware improvement over the years. I just did one in like half hour

The Habbler · « **Reply #112 on:** August 15, 2012, 12:44:51 pm »

Do you still have to have the "Blade" dashboard to do a JTAG? I have an Elite 360 with the avatars dash but it hasn't been updated in months. I also git a 20gig pro with the HDMI port from a friend recently. Not sure what model that is, but it still has the blade dashboard on it. I want to mod one of them, possibly both. Which model do you think is easier to work with?

SNAAKE · « **Reply #113 on:** August 15, 2012, 09:20:43 pm »

blade dashboard should be jtaggable.

other one needs RGH with the coolrunner chip. function is same for both other than the 2-5 sec boot time for the reset glitch(rgh)

PM or send me an email I can set something up for you.

customjoystick @ gmail.com

koolmoecraig · « **Reply #114 on:** August 25, 2012, 06:50:42 pm »

I've been out of the scene for a while. Please excuse my ignorance.

Can a 360 be modded to play MAME or is that just the original Xbox?

Thanks

SNAAKE · « **Reply #115 on:** August 25, 2012, 07:40:57 pm »

^ yes it can be but there are requirements. you need the RGH hack with the chip.

date for the slim xbox has to be august2011 or before and dashboard 14719 or before.

phat xbox needs hdmi port and dashboard 14699 or before. most jaspers with 14719 still works with RGH2.

so you gotta let me know what I will be working with.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #116 on:** April 28, 2013, 01:27:14 am »

damn I forgot to bump this thread lol

still in business. also I am able to glitch/rgh/jtag any dashboard version for slim xboxes as long as they are made around august 2011 or before. working on everything too but so far I have that clear and ready to go. spent few hours today doing an xbox with newest dashboard and things worked just fine.

happyfunball · « **Reply #117 on:** April 29, 2013, 09:36:05 pm »

so i have an xbox i've had for years and I bought a modchip about a year ago with the intent of modding it myself and never got around to it. my intention was just to use it to emulate older consoles.

if i sent the whole pile to you could you do the job? I'd have to go see what modchip it was but when i ordered it there weren't many types left.

I can go look if this is a doable thing and the price is reasonable. probably not something i'd ship out for a month or so tho.

SNAAKE · « **Reply #118 on:** April 29, 2013, 10:47:07 pm »

there is no modchip for the xbox 360. what you may have is the development board like a tx coolrunner. if you are including the chip then I will do the work for 60+ shipping. check your dashboard version anyway and dont update anything just to be on the safe side. and it has HDMI port?

and from what I hear(recent finding), any phat xbox with hdmi port and any dashboard can be jtagged/RGHed now with new team xecuter timing files. I am gonna try a phat xbox soon and post result. already figured out slim.

jmike · « **Reply #119 on:** April 30, 2013, 09:06:09 am »

In case anyone is hesitant about having Snaake do any mod for them don't be, I bought an xbox 360 slim from him and it works great. I actually used it in a bartop, (which he also did the marquee for).

Btw Snaake, I just got my hands on an old xbox and would like you to mod it. I'll send you a PM later tonight.
