Hi Guys. I received the Hyperkin HDMI cable today that I ordered a few days ago. Unfortunately it didn't perform any better than the Pound cable, in fact I think the Pound cable is better. I have five XBOXs; three v1.0s, one v1.3 and one v1.4. All of my XBOXs have the Conexant video encoder except for the v1.4 which has a Focus video encoder. Of the five systems I have, two of the v1.0s work well with the Pound cable and the Hyperkin cable, (no interference or noise in the signal). But with one of the v1.0s as well as the v1.3 and v1.4 there is noise and interference with both the Pound cable and the Hyperkin cable, although it's worse with the Hyperkin cable. Also, when I called Hyperkin today to discuss this with them and ultimately request a refund, they were quite rude. I had high hopes for this cable but was left very dissapointed. Just wanted to share this with everyone incase you were considering getting one. I wouldn't recommend it.

i order 4 of them by accident but have put one of them in a 1.6 xbox and it works great no issues

Never seen that before, but a quick google says it’s to do with the terminal process. So I wouldn’t worry about it.

I bought a few some weeks back specifically to use in my 1.6's, yet to put them in but they look like they are legit and are both well made and well packed. Incidently they are also on Aliexpress and are cheaper,probably because the eBay seller is buying them from there and reselling them,

Hi @KaosEngineer, Sorry for the ~1 year lag... I left off this in frustration then, but want to come back to thank you. Your last post mentioned about the need for the SD AV cable and that actually did the trick - the "blank screen" attempting to boot the backup/recovery FlashBIOS 3.0.1 was due to my use of the HD component cables (duh). Once that was resolved, everything else was "as expected" - I managed to "erase"/overwrite the 2x 1MB 3924 with 4x 256KB ROMs, then re-flashed 1MB bank #1 again with 3924 and my Xbox was working again, replete with all my saved games, profiles, et. al. still on my HDD... Thank you so much, @KaosEngineer!
