freeboot - Zephyr problmes

[Mrbuzz102]

Ok

I have managed to get my cpu key fine. with xell which boots fine when wirtten to the xbox, my problem is when i write the freeboot (i have used jtagtool and also Freeboot maker) once its on the consol there is no booting.

Im not sure where im going wrong man with no name has been helping me out along the way but im totaly stuck now.

I noticed in 360 flash tool. you can extract parts like SMC and extened kv ect from the nand bin file.

Here is the steps i am taking, in jtag tool
Device type - USB
Console Type - Zephyr

In advanced tools my imgages of my nand dumps return :
1024 block(s) in nand image
0 non-matching block(s) found

In driver / options
Check for updates - yes
Auto compare nand - Yes
Alternare SMC points (Yes / No ) I have tryed both points on the board with same result
DVD drive installed - Yes

KV INFO

Kv type - 2
CB -4558
Serial - ***********
ID - **********
DVD-key - **************** bla bla
MFR DATE - 14/7/2007 (but on consol on back is says MRF DATE 15/7/2007

I have clicked Extract KV and saved it.

When i


I put my CPU key in the freeboot section and clicked create BIN saved it sa FreeBOOT.bin

The i open up my nand-x in cmd

cd nandpro

nandpro.exe usb: -w16 freeBOOT.bin

Images writes to 03FF when i turn on the consol nothing. black screen.

but if i flash my original NAND dump onto it the computer loads fine?

Many thanks in advance,

Buzz

some use falcon smc, this is what i'd do
extract you untouched smc run it through smc util this will give you a 100% working smc for your console, then use fbbuild.

I am getting this error when i build my freeboot image

By SMC do u mean open my nand in 360 flash tool and select the option Extract them extract the SMC?

i have 2 smc files now SMC_enc.bin and SMC_dec.bin

 

[big_ted]

use smc_dec

you must run it through smc_util for the hack to work.


once you have done it, run it with this command to find where the wiring is set in the smc.

smc_util analysis input_dec.bin

AUD_CLAMP = CC DB1F1 = C0 ARGON_DATA = 83 TRAY_OPEN = CF

i have changed my jtag points its no longer on the alternate ones.

I tryed this

Wrote XBR_Zephyr_8955_3b.bin which i re-named XBR.bin to the consol.

then i got my nand dump and extracted

kv.bin
and
config.bin

I then wrote the kv.bin and the config.bin to the xbox using commands

nandpro -w16 kv.bin 1 1
nandpro -w16 config.bin 3de 2

the xbox now boots but takes me to my 7371 nex dash board.

Update.

ok i used freeboot maker

made a file updflash.bin

injected my kv and config

flashed to nand.

turned on to get consol setup. with dash version 2.0.12611.0

on re-start its now booting into free60 blue screen every time i turn it on.

where do i go from here.

cheers for all the advice.

problem is now when i copy and paste the code folder into my content folder then go to the dash board the xex 1,1 is not showing up in the game libary?

if i go and look on the xbox hhd it says in games xexloader saved game 60kb but its not showing in game libery

[big_ted]

make sure your using the live version (not xex or iso) and it's on your m$ hd at
Content\0000000000000000\CODE9999\00080000
