Hi, Can you help me to repair a bad flash on my Debug Kit Can I use modchip DuoX2 to repair it ? Big thanks (sorry for my english language i'm french ^^)
AFAIK you boot via modchip, once booted remove/disable modchip and then reflash xbox and it will flash back to the original bios. Or if it's got 2 banks and the 2nd bank isn't effected, make the onboard flash use the second bank?
Then get a modchip, boot, turn off modchip and flash tsop again. but check google and these forums for more details like maybe good bios for tsop and if custom dash, shadow tsop is off.
For whatever reason you can't just pull the modchip after booting and have it flash the TSOP. Gotta have a 29 wire modchip. At least last I checked that was the case.
Big thanks for your answers ^^ For resume a duox2 can works on my debug or not ? Only 29 wire modchip ?
If you boot off LPC, the tsop is unavailable. 29 wire chip doesnt use LPC and disconnecting it is similar to hot swapping the TSOP - which is why you can flash like that. personally, I would just remove the tsop and reflash it - but you need tools/skills to do it.
I always figured the 29 wire modchips were a TSOP replacement on a PCB. Thing is there are no installation diagrams for anything >1.1 making them currently useless for anything but 1.0/1.1. I should know, I've got the Enigmah and X-Tenders on hand.
This isn't true! You can simply find the TSOP flash method and flash the onboard TSOP after booting with a modchip. Less wires and it does the same result without having an entire seperate bios chip
The tsop is unavailable after you boot from a LPC modchip - even if you completely remove the chip while the console is booted. If memory serves, the matrix modchip did something a little different (messing with address lines and D0) and had something you could do - but good luck finding one of those and pretty sure it only worked on 1.0 consoles? Its been awhile =/
