That wasn't xor's program, as I said before. Whatever's in the Shadow Complex is totally different from the program that was running on the kit a the time. BTW. I removed the link as my server can't handle too much of a load on it.
Okay, so someone developed a malicious xex for some odd reason. Kinda sad :\ 70 percent xex sent, let me know how it goes.
ill let you know as soon as the tv becomes available (im at my granpas house in az so only 1 tv available) but the first one worked so no reason why the second one wouldent but ill let you know
No offense but to that person that said he's only trying to help, I'm aware, but when someone that actually knows this subject, when I tell him what he's doing is incorrect, and he's too ignorant to correct it, then I'm not going to bother helping more. I'm not gonna bother reading the four pages here because it's all just drama and more drama.
the dramas gone and the problems been fixed by patriot so nothing to read. and i changed the speed to 70 patriot, its slightly faster, thank you
I would agree and say that you do know the subject pretty well. I think this bad shadow complex alpha came from someone named Dimished. Anybody know of him? I bet the people that put out the file to mess up the kits didn't get who they were intending to hit, instead got others in the cross fire. Glad that tyler and the others got their fix. Good job to patriot for being a help instead of saying that it couldn't be done. Hawk
The code sets the CPU and GPU fan speed, as stored in the SMC config block, to zero. It does that by first reading the block using a Kernel function, changing the block itself, recalculating the checksum, and then writing it back. The value it sets the CPU/GPU fan speed to is hardcoded at zero. It's really easy to see in the disassembly. If you change that value to 0x7f, fans should be set back to auto. I'll leave the exact modification itself to you as an exercise. (no, seriously: I don't have an affected console, so I don't really feel like trying)
Thank you for the info Timbic. I didn`t realize I was that much off, I am beggining to understand how this works now, good find.
Also to xenon, i`m sorry i`m a little bit new to this, it just looked like I got somewhere, but by reading the posts in this topic most people have been teaching me. If I ever find something and you don`t this it`s right please tell me agian, but next time don`t call me ignorant. Thanks ~ambi0
No offense, you were being ignorant, so I feel it's fair if I state it. You were editing an output string, a part of the string more specifically that's a placeholder for a decimal-type value.. The text %d is replaced with the actual value, it wasn't a value itself, it was a placeholder.. My main point was, when everyone told you you were wrong, and you yourself can acknowledge you're new and not too knowledgeable about this, you really should listen to others.. As you didn't help what so ever with the situation except add to the amount of useless information in the topic. It's ok however, shit happens.
