InFeCtuS Modchip Adds Xbox360 Flash Mem. Access
>> We received this email from Team InFeCtuS about their versatile multi-platform InFeCtuS modchip. They now made it possible for the InFeCtuS to access (read/write) the Xbox360 NAND flash (were dash/kernel/... are stored). At this moment it's not very useful for the normal end user (as downgrading the new 4552 kernel isn't possible atm due the eFuse MS blew up), but it's a cheap and easy way for developers and researchers to read/write and soon on-the-fly patch the Xbox360 NAND flash - so they can experiment as much as they want:

Here in attachment the diagram to connect INFECTUS to the X360 NAND Flash.

We spoke with some hackers about a way to give a good tool to try to trick the eFUSE... right now INFECTUS is like a PROGRAMMER... in the next weeks we want to add a "patching" utility.

We want to use the onboard flash of the INFECTUS to store some strings of bytes that INFECTUS can patch on-the-fly on the BIOS.
The idea is that the developers will have a nice tool that can be used to store data strings inside the flash of the modchip, then tell to the FPGA to replace on-the-fly that strings when requested...
The user can define what the "conditions" are to allow a patch on-the-fly, like "wait this byte and overwrite it with XXX bytes" etc...

I hope you understand our idea... it will not be so simple to do but it is possible, and with this nice tool the developers and hackers have an unbelievable and cheaper way to try what all what's impossible! FUCK THE eFUSE... and I'm sure is possible! ;)

Tomorrow a new version of the PROGRAMMER will be released with the new options to manage the NAND X360 FLASH.
