Team Xecuter: New Jungle Flasher, New Firmware, New SPUTNIK Unlock
>> From team-xecuter.com: [QUOTE] A busy week ! * We have collected all of the bug reports surrounding the last release of Jungle Flasher and they have all now been fixed and are in testing as we speak. * New versions of the 0272 firmware have also been found and this will address the issues some of you are having with Open DVD / Play DVD errors. be patient. * The new AP2.5 challenges have been captured and there are differences which we can work with. Expect news soon.
SPUTNIK360
Thanks to some Russian guys, there has been a trace cut / solder backdoor hack discovered for unlocking the SPI status of DG-16D4S MXIC chipsets – kudos to those guys and thanks for opening some previously unseen doors. Unfortunatley most of the drives are Winbond, but this is a great platform to start from.
Naturally we will move this to the next level and have branded this the SPUTNIK360 hack in honor of our Russian colleagues. We are currently working on the more “in the wild” Winbond version with a number of well known associates.
The latest Jungle Flasher (with the bug fixes) also includes full support for SPUTNIK360 SPI LOCK / UNLOCK hack together with the X360USB PRO, so there will be no need for extra 3rd party software and you can be assured of full compatibility with the quality that you have come to expect from Team Xecuter and Team Jungle.
We will keep you updated….. [/QUOTE]

Official FAQ for xKey360
>> The xKey Team posted the official FAQ for their upcoming xKey360 ODD emulator device: [QUOTE] Configuring xKey - Fats xKey requires a dump of the original firmware from your drive. This is copied to the xKey's SD card, when the xKey boots the firmware file its analysed, the drive type is identified and the drive key etc. are extracted.
If you have CFW You should have a backup of the OFW (or all the information to recreate one) and it is this file that is used to configure xKey. There is no need to reflash your drive with OFW.
If you have a stock drive a dump must be obtained using available tools (we recommend the Maximus Lizard 360).
Configuring xKey - Slims xKey requires the file set (dummy.bin etc.) that can be created with available tools, these are copied to the xKey's SD card. When the xKey boots, the files are analysed, the drive type is identified and the drive key etc. are extracted.
If you have CFW You should have a backup of the required files and they are used to configure xKey. There is no need to reflash your drive with OFW
If you have a stock drive a dump must be obtained using available tools (we recommend the Maximus Lizard 360).
Firmware Dumping At launch xKey can't dump the drive firmware. Updates, planned for shortly after release, will allow xKey to perform this task for you. There is no need to flash your drive and 0225+ owners can enjoy all the benefits of xKey without the hassle of swapping PCBs or waiting for an unlock hack [/QUOTE]
