    Possible to dump Xbox One game builds?

    Apologies if this isn't the right sub to ask, but there's some private builds of the game "Destiny 2" that can be downloaded from Dbox. Was told by a few that it's not possible to dump these in a way someone could extract the game's packages.

    But there might be someone here more experienced with this. Is there someone that's a expert on this I could potentially talk to that could dump these?

    Hi everybody I've recently been FTP'ing games of both Xbox 360 and OG Xbox variety to my modded Xbox 360 running Aurora but I have run into an issue. I'm trying to copy over The Hobbit for OG Xbox to my hard drive on the 360 but every time I try to copy it over I get hit with error 550 file not found and it's stumping me. Has anybody else run into this issue and if so what was your fix? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

    Help with The Simpsons movie game and others.

    Hi everybody. I'm trying to get a copy of the Simpsons movie game to work on my modded Xbox 360 that is currently running Aurora. It's weird I have Xenia on my PC and it plays the Simpsons game with ease but when I FTP the file over to my 360 Aurora won't pick it up and put it in my library. I've dug into the rar file and it shows only Audio ts and Video ts folders with video files in them. There aren't any .xex files that I can see and I am stumped. I've been re-wording this problem to google for over two days now and I'm still coming up dry. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? And if so can somebody please explain my fuck up to me please?

    Play Simpsons Hit n Run on RGH?

    So I have an RGH3 xbox. I wanted to play Simpsons Hit n Run because it's my favorite older game and I came into an issue. The plan was put a ps2 emulator on the rgh and then get the simpsons iso and load it. I got the emulator on the rgh but then realized the file for the iso is over 4gb so it can't go on the xbox's HDD. So what are my options? How can I play Simpsons Hit n Run on an RGH3?

    Installing Xbox One Hardware on PC

    Hey, y'all! I do PC building as a side gig, particularly with repairs and detailing beyond the traditional "plug and play" assembly. I.e., modifying graphics cards, etc.

    I recently disassembled an old Xbox One that hasn't worked in years. In retrospect I assume it was either a power supply issue which I could have easily fixed, or a motherboard/CPU/APU issue which I can't. I salvaged what parts I can and am wondering the feasibility of installing them on a standard PC. Below are the parts I'm curious about and my thoughts/concerns on each. Any advice on any part would be welcome!

    Hard Drive: This seems to be the only part that uses standard connections; it's a Seagate drive with SATA power and data transfer, so I should be able to easily install it. I am concerned that it's "locked" based on how much Xbox hardware is, but don't know much about how to circumvent that. Can I not just wipe the drive and use it as new?

    Wi-Fi Card: This appears to use a 9-pin USB header rather than PCIe standard. I'm not sure if it would work with a PC without specialized drivers but worth a try. It also had another small cable which was only attached to the metal inner chassis of the Xbox. Is this just a grounding cable? Not sure what purpose it served.

    CPU cooler: Doesn't use standard 4-pin PWM header but an alternative I've seen on older motherboards that I should be able to get an adapter for. My main concern is whether or not it's bracket would fit an ATX motherboard, but that's an easy check or a trip to a 3D printer from being solved.

    Finally, the real killer. The motherboard/CPU/APU. Doesn't use standard power supply but I can just use an Xbox one. I've heard online that it's BIOS will not work with NTFS and that it uses a secure boot loop that I can't workaround if I tried to run Windows. Is there any way to flash it, any community-made BIOS out there to run Windows? I think it would be a very neat idea to have an "Xbox" PC. But my understanding is that it also doesn't use standard RAM and I'm wondering how much incompatibility I'd see. I don't have the knowledge to make my own drivers, so that's out of the question right now.

    Spitballing an idea to try see if it's possible. Official Xbox Battery charger.

    I've got a whole heap of the official Xbox batteries and it's always annoyed me the Microsoft never did a charging cradle for them.

    I have an old controller that my dog chewed up when he was a puppy I use purely as a battery charger. My idea is to find a diagram for the motherboard and shave off everything that is uneserersary and then create a small 3D printed dock to hold the motherboard and battery.

    Any info that people have on how the battery charging circuitry works and maybe even how the charge indicator on the old style cables work would be awesome. I've never really done any kind of modding but I think it would be a cool project to learn more about electronics and 3D modelling and then maybe share with others. I'm sure there's a heap of dead controllers lying around with stick drift

    Is it possible to port a xenia cheat to real hardware?

    I would like to port a burnout revenge cheat that allows to use debug menu, with him, you can access all the tracks (shame that burnout revenge don't has single events) and another cheat that unlock all the crash mode cars to play in the races, but I didn't found any advice, help or tutorial to do it on internet, can anyone help me? I saw a Brazilian guy that ported the inner view cheat from flat out ultimate carnage mod into real hardware and I think this cheat will be kinda similar to it

    Trying to open Xbox live brings me back to xbmc4gamers dashboard.

    (As the title says) every time I try to login to Xbox live I get brought back to xbmc4gamers dashboard. It doesn't matter if I try to do it in-game or by loading Xbox dash.xbe. I should metion that I used this harddrive in another console and swapped it to this one. Not sure if that would cause any potential issues.

    new to modding help please

    hi all thanks for reading my post! i am new to the xbox modding community, as i just softmodded my V1.0 xbox last night! i was so happy. however, tonight, i removed the old exhaust fan and put in a nexus fan, thinking it would make my xbox quieter. it didn't really do much unfortunately. i think the noise is coming from the ancient 8GB hard drive. so i tried upgrading it to a 2.5" 80gb hdd using Chimp, but when i try loading chimp it just goes to a black screen. i used a video on youtube i found from Archades Games, did everything he said, the new HDD is approved on the xbox hard drive compatibility list site. so i tried hooking up this 80 wire IDE cable i bought last year, and it was longer than the original cable, but the plugs were not in the same place as the original cable, no matter how i tried folding it it wouldn't work. one end of it broke off on my HDD and the connector got stuck in it, luckily i was able to take it out, so i threw that cheap dumb cable away. so wondering if anyone can help me upgrade my old HDD and can recommend a better 80 wire cable where the connectors are in the same place as the original cable preferrably? sorry for the wall of text but thanks again for reading!

    Xbox stuck at “loading ind-bios” screen

    Hi

    I bought a modded Xbox on eBay a year ago, after moving to another house my Xbox stopped working, when I try to turn on it keeps stuck at loading ind-bios screen, I opened the console and put another hdd to see what happens and now shows me error 13 no dashboard

    Probably my hdd died right? The dvd drive is faulty and struggles to load an original Xbox game, what I need to do to save this console?

    Thanks

    It’s my first time 👉👈

    I have an MW2 Edition 360 coming in that I’m planning to JTAG (first time modding a console).

    I have no concerns about busting open the console and molesting the internals, got all the tools and I know how to solder.

    But…I don’t know what to do after? Can someone point me in the right direction in terms of what programs to download and how to get into downloading games and mods to the console?

    I would really love to mod this Xbox in a similar style to this guy here: https://youtu.be/vEs4mset-b4?si=K-rLadNIjA_YunqA

    Help with ModXO: CerBios Logo Appears, then boots to Vanilla BIOS

    Hi everyone,

    I'm having a problem with my original Xbox 1.4. I installed a Raspberry Pico ModXO. The CerBios boot logo shows up, but then it goes to the vanilla BIOS. The Xbox sometimes needs 2 or 3 tries to start, but sometimes it boots on the first try.

    What I've tried:

    • Tested all LPC header pins for continuity.
    • Checked the 5V pin for correct voltage.
    • Tested all connections on the Raspberry Pi Pico and measured the resistors.
    • Tried running Prometheus OS on the chip, which boots fine.
    • Reset the Raspberry Pico to factory settings and re-flashed CerBios.

    The Xbox still boots completely into the vanilla BIOS, even when the DVD drive is not connected. This wouldn't work without the Raspberry Pico installed, so I believe the Pico itself is fine.

    This is actually my first Xbox mod, and aside from doing an Xbox trace repair before, I don’t have much soldering experience. So, my ability to figure out what’s wrong is pretty limited, and honestly, this whole process is driving me crazy.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Is it possible to use my Series X gpu?

    Hey everyone,

    I’m a computer engineering student currently training a machine learning model for a final project. Using my laptop, I estimate the training will take two weeks, but I know my classmates with computers equipped with high end GPUs are able to shave this time down to days if not hours. My idea is this: is it possible to somehow use the computing power in my series X (or original Xbox one) with my computer? I’m just throwing the idea out there, would certainly be easier than dedicating my laptop to training for a couple weeks and maybe missing my deadline. Open to any ideas about this.

    CPU modding Xbox

    I would really want my rev 1.6 Xbox CPU modded to 1.4 ghz. I am not very experienced with hardware modding. Just got some very basic soldering skills. I have no idea where to start. Is there anyone in Europe (preferably Scandinavia) that can help me with the mod? Please :-)

    Swapping version shells

    I have a modded 1.4 Xbox. But I but a dead Halo Xbox for cheap. I confirmed that the Halo Xbox doesn't work and gutted it. The Halo Xbox is a 1.6 motherboard. The insides of the shells look really similar. Do I need to alter the inside of the Halo shell in any way to make the 1.4 motherboard to work? I also don't want the 1.4 motherboard not to be grounded. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
