hey this should be a quick question to help finish setting up Xell, i would like to change the boot button for Xell

so i created a copy of my updflash.bin and opened it in xeBuild GUI
went to advanced options selected use custom XeBuild Settings

I then went to the xeBuild Settings tab and went to Page 2
and changed the Xell button options to the Power button left the others on default
(that way eject button would boot pass through on **** but would still boot into the FSD instead of xell and i could boot normally with the guide key on my controller and the power button would boot Xell)

hit Save xeBuild settings

i then loaded the newly created file

i then got my CPUKey from my cpukey.txt

generated the hacked image
i then opened in J-runner
Chose my updflash.bin
set options to R-jtag and aud clamp
left the rest alone and hit write to nand

never got any errors but nothings changed ive tried a couple of times with no luck ive even disabled the eject key function any ideas?


Background pc Info-

You can do all Xell customizations in J-Runner. Open your original NAND and do it all from there (with your CPU key).

If it doesn't work, post your updflash.bin log.

I see no updflash.bin log, just nand reading and writing in that log. Post the log after you set the xebuild options and create image. at the end of that log it should tell you your cpu/1b1/dvd key and what button xell is set to boot from. I really dont see why you would need to change the default. Honestly, I always wanted to be able to build the image without xell, considering you can use xell launch to and dashlaunch to set it up so all you have to do is hold a button down and it launches xell. I also wouldnt mind getting my hands on a Green and Black Xell like the TX RGX ECCs that were released when the bootloader code was leaked. I like the way that 1 looked better. It is much easier on the eyes, and reminds me of my linux terminal. :)
