I actually got my start in xbox scene. And as a matter of fact, it is quite trivial to escalate to HV privs on an XDK. P.S. swizzy you realise that if you modify a signed xex it looses its signature right? -adrianc
@adrianc hmm, it can? but i mean if its a unsigned xex and then use it to sign it then i'll possibly work? thanks!
There is no such thing as a xex signing tool because we don't have the keys to sign with. To get a xex signed, you need to submit it to microsoft for certification. And also be a licensed developer. -adrianc
Explaining properly, we know the private DEV xex signing key. We DON'T know the private retail xex signing key and this is what adrianc is talking about.
So I take it we don't have access to anything like the ADK? No one here knows anything about the underlying APIs? (Save that they are C#/XAML under the hood). I'm assuming that Microsoft keeps this one pretty close to the chest, which is a shame.
