Re: Extend The Life Expectance Of Your Modded 1.6... for rea

The man has spoken, but he didn't say anything. The reply needs to contain something like "the concerns are unfounded because this current is within spec", or "it's unfounded because X3 only holds the line for a few seconds on boot", or even "we understand the problem, and BIOS 1960 will address it".

Saying "there's nothing there; pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, and by the way our competitors suck" is no reply. Tell us why it's not a problem. And whether or not your competitor is a genius has nothing to do with whether THIS product has a problem.

I was going to buy an X3 tonight. I guess I'll wait until tomorrow to see if there's a real answer, otherwise I'll have to look elsewhere.

I've been looking at a lot of the forums lately and the only peeps that have responded right away about this issue (and in like 8 mins after posting, not 30 postings later and with no real answer) is from the Xenium makers. So what's the deal Xecuter? Or are you like many others, not caring about your supporters and going to sweep this one under the rug?

Remember what he's said earlier. We're not his customers. The modchip resellers are his customers. We are the resellers' customers. So obviously any problems we have should be taken up with the resellers. :?

ok but if we don't buy this modchip, the resellers don't purchase it too, and teamxecuter don't receive any money... :wink:

I will buy an x3 chip, but today i think to buy an xenium modchip (they respond to this topic in minutes and contundently) or smartxx v2 (when they do an explanation).

Re: Extend The Life Expectance Of Your Modded 1.6... for rea

funny how the seasoned members whome have used and loved the Xecuter range arent complaining, ive also yet to see a SINGLE person who's xbox has died for any reason other then a shoddy install.
Also funny how ALL the people bitching about "oh he didnt answer this, oh he dissed that", all have less than 5 posts.

Fact remains, X2.6 and X3 are the best modchips around, i have installed every possible kind of modchip into peoples machines in the past, and ever since the X3's release, i would say that 7 our of 10 installs are x2.6/x3 2 out of 10 are smartxx, and 1 out of 10 is xenium.
i've very rarely installed duo's or cheapmods, and even then its because the people who wanted them were cheapasses that didnt care about quality as long as they could "play certain games".

i swear you guys need to chill out, you all bitch about wether or not the xecuter range is effected by this "issue", which imo, sounds like something only a cheapmod would.. and when xecuter himself, says that its horseshit, the xecuters arent effected, you STILL bitch because he didnt say it nicely.. well i for one prefer the no bullshit blatently clear version, as apposed to the iced over sugar coated crap.

so, if he doesnt reply to you how YOU want, your not gonna buy an x3?, pfft, thats your problem, so the resellers wont move ONE unit, and youll end up with a lower quality modchip, and someone else who knows wtf theyre doing will buy the x3 that you did not.

idle threats mean jack sh*t man, if you dont like the xecuter range, or dont like how the facts are presented, go to another mod groups forums instead of sitting around here trolling.

</vent>

large increase in bitching newbs lately.. perhaps a "cannot post in certain forums until you have 5 posts or more in xx forum" is in order ?_?

Re: Extend The Life Expectance Of Your Modded 1.6... for rea

and is not easy respond us if the modchip have that problem or not? in xenium forums they respond in a few minutes. I consider X3 the best chip for XBOX, but if it die my 1.6 XBOX i prefer install one Xenium Ice for example. :wink:

if i had a version < v1.6 i purchase a X3 modchip, but with 1.6 XBOX i install one modchip that it don't break that XBOX in several months.

if teamxecuter members, sais me that the X3 don't have this problem, I'll buy a X3 modchip, but if they say nothing, I'll buy a Xenium Ice, it is easy.

Re: Extend The Life Expectance Of Your Modded 1.6... for rea

you cant use "it's" to describe more than one object, for example, 2 large red balls, "It's too big", doesnt work, instead "They're" is used.
It's pretty obvious he is talking about the so called "Issue" when he says it's horse sh*t, so do you wanna go back under the bridge and wait for the billygoats?

So I just wanted to hear:

A) yes, this may be a problem, you have to live with it.

or

b) no, this is just bull****, ignore it.
You yourself asked for it, but instead he said horse and not bull, happy now?

Re: Extend The Life Expectance Of Your Modded 1.6... for rea

gah, tbh i would like a more comprehensive answer too, i plan to buy an x3 for my own xbox (ive modded a mates v1.1 with it) i liked it

BUT, i dont wanna have a fried xbox in a few months time, what has been claimed is completly plausible, we were given a techical explaination of the problem, and an equally technical explaiation of why its not a problem, or if indeed it is, how to best fix it, would be nice.

i would have no problem adding a resistor to the Lframe, if i need to, but i would like to know if i do.

and not just a no, and explaiation would be nice, to put my mind at ease.

As for all you fan boys ect, why bother with all the flaming horsecrap, defending X3's to the bitter end like its your f**king baby, if theres a problem with the chip, there is a problem, nothing is perfect.

i have no doubt that the x3 is the best chip, thats why ive chosen it in the past, and want to continue using it, but it is not at all unreasonable for the community to want a properly defined answer as to wether or not they need to wory about the longevity of their xbox.
at minimum there is £140 of eqipment at stake, surely that is reason enough to warrant a slightly more detailed response from the admin?

The case may well be, that the stress caused by the chip simply wasnt considered before, and the team are working as we speak to find out if there is, indeed, a problem, but for christs sake, berating anyone who asks is helping no one.

i look foward to a comprehensive response from the team.

why do you need a more comlete answer, have you stopped to think that he didn't answer right away because he was investigating it, maybe testing it out on a spare xbox? he said it is horse shiat and I believe it. the whole proccess seems useless, read my first reply. anyways, i think this should be locked before an ungodly flame war breaks out over these 6-post attention whores

Re: Extend The Life Expectance Of Your Modded 1.6... for rea

I don't think this is a issue at all, Look at this quote.

:Quote:
"For those interested, I measured 62mA and 68mA on two different 1.6 xboxs - to put this into perspective a standard 3.3V 74LV series IC output normally operates at a few mA, and has an absolute maximum rating of 25mA (I am comparing with other generic electronic components as I obviously don't have the actual xbox component datasheets ...) "
:End Quote:

He even admits that he don't have a clue about what he is talking about.
He may be experienced with electronics, but he say he does not have the datasheets on the actual components used. And if he has looked on similar generic components as he claims, he should have given info on exactly what components he was looking at so other can verify this.


I haven't read through the whole thread on Xbox-Scene accoring later comments yet,
So if anyone have any arguments i've not read yet, feel free to answer this post. [/u][/b]

can i be any more clear ????

its bullshit marketing ploys by other people. TRUST ME !!!!

ffs you'd think you guys would take my word for it.

we pinch lframe for a few milliseconds with 0v - its absolutley not needed any more than that.

besides i have been testing x3's in xbox's for almost a year now - i have a clue ok ?

Thank you

That is the answer I was looking for.

For those of you that complained about the posts on this topic from new posters: duh! Of course the people who are just shopping for chips -- the people new to the scene -- are more interested in hearing the answr to this.
