Damo-NZ Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Hi there I am new to modding Xboxes, i have watched a number of videos on the subject . I plan to look through all the forum topics to guide me , my biggest hurdle is knowing what tools, leads and software to have so it makes the process easier. I have four Xboxes, two have been soft modded by the previous owners (one has an extension kit with three HDD's internally and has an Akira 2 mod chip), one standard Xbox and one Pal Crystal Xbox version 1.5 I plan to TSOP all of them if possible. My soldier skills are good, i have installed mod chips in my PS2, and Gamecube. I have also modded my Dreamcast with an IDE Reborn and have an IDE drive in a custom built DC table top arcade. Any help on where to look for info would be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 1.4. No one has a 1.5. TSOP flashing is definitely the way to go though. It's incredibly easy to do and there are numerous tutorials for it online. Make sure you are removing your clock capacitors from any non-1.6 Xboxes too. Leaving them in means death for the Xbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority of them are, yes, but a small number of the PAL ones are 1.4. His could be either, but my mind just went to 1.4 because 1.4/1.5 are the same. He very well could have a 1.6 though and be claiming it's a 1.5. It's not like we all haven't seen that before.

Damo-NZ Posted January 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Thanks for the links, here is a photo of my serial number along with the Focus chip. I broke the seals myself nearly two years ago when i first looked into modding the Xbox to put into my Kiosk. It could be a 1.4 like you guys are saying 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help on where to look for info would be much appreciated For the softmodded ones, I would suggest downloading rocky5s softmodding disc. It can update olds softmods, and it's the best imo. Love the extended case, that's something you don't see every day. Sent fra min SM-G930F via Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just grab the Quick Upgrade tool from his GitHub/Google Drive and use that instead. Spare the DVD drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
