meandu Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 Hello again, I got another Xbox with another problem. It`s a box manufactured 2003 (so no 1.6 I guess) and it`s a SmartXX built in from 2004. There are several banks flashed with some BIOS files (see picture). There was only a 160GB IDE drive installed so I decided to change it to a SATA 2TB. I made a FTP-copy of the files from C and E. I used FatXplorer to prepare the drive and copied all previously saved files to the new C and E drives to the new partitions. After that I got error 21 after boot. The only working Dash is the EvolutionX but it won`t recognize the F and G partition as it should. I formatted F and G 927GB each but as you can see in the picture it shows only F and not even the correct size. I think the flashed BIOS version is too old. When EvolutionX boots up it shows Xecuter2 below the green xbox logo. Wich BIOS do I need to flash SmartXX and how do I flash it? I need your help again Regards.

sweetdarkdestiny Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 Here is everthing you need incl an LBA patched 256kb EvoX m8 plus bios: https://1fichier.com/?75d4snkzs4y4vi1nrkbz You need to connect your XBox to your PC and remote flash it with the RemoteFlasher software. And ofc you can flash any other bios like the iND5003.67 XISO, iND5004.67 or Xecuter2 5035.67 if you like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meandu Posted January 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 do I connect my xbox via crossover LAN cable to flash remote? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetdarkdestiny Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 You can do that (I do it that way) but if you have your XBox connected to your router in the same network, that will also work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaosEngineer Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Which version of Windows are you running the Remote Flasher on? For Windows 10, is the Remote Flasher application allowed network access through the Windows Defender Firewall? NOTE: Even though the application listed below is named SmartXX Remote Tool v1, the SmartXX Remote Flasher v5.0 was installed on the computer.

meandu Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Thanks for your replies. Yes it`s true I`m german. I thought my bad english had told it to you before I`m using Win 11 and Comodo firewall (Win firewall is deactivated), I allowed Remote Flasher in the firewall rules. I already found the german version of RF before and even the germen pdf tutorial. I also have the necessary OS files (latest beta). The RF just won`t find the Xbox while it is runnung in the bank1, bank2... screen. I`m gonna try another computer where I have Win7 running (I used this machine with the Nano USB Flasher) and will report after that. So the point seems to get RF find the xbox... I already have the BIOS flashing and Dashboard booting problems solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unter Win 10/ Win 11 hab ich das nicht getestet (Wobei Kaos ja sagt läuft). Auf Win 7 x64 funktioniert das hingegen alles problemlos. Ggf. wäre von DVD updaten eine Option.

meandu Posted February 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 @sweetdarkdestiny can you please help me updating the Smartxx Firmware? I tried it with DVD but I don`t know what to do in the SmartXX menu. And the RemoteFlasher won`t find the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetdarkdestiny Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 So far I found out that you don't use the remote flasher to update the SmartXX OS. You need to connect your PC -> XBox though the web browser. Then you will see a web interface of the SmartXX. https://imgur.com/a/ndDPMyD And I found another (german) manual : https://docplayer.org/35066466-Anleitung-zum-einbau-eines-smart-xx-v2-in-eine-er-xbox.html It didn't expain the flash but it shows you how to set up the connection though the browser. How ever, I will check that in a couple of hours because there is no life before coffee, coffee and more coffee... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetdarkdestiny Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Ok found out how it works. So open up the smartXX folder from the download (Post #10). Step one : Rename the " SmartXX OS 3408_beta.bin " to " update.bin " Step two : Power up your XBox and wait for the SmartXX menu. Setp tree : Launch the " tftpclient.exe " which is included in one of the downloads. Enter the IP the SmartXX display and select the "update.bin" file. Step four : Press upload and wait till the SmartXX has updated the Firmware. Press any button like you see on your TV screen. After the reboot your SmartXX shows the new FW version. EDIT DL for the new FW and the Tool : https://1fichier.com/?me87ihveit7divqhf8vt Edited February 10, 2022 by sweetdarkdestiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meandu Posted March 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 connecting via browser works but how to update SmrtXX OS? Connecting with your provided tool does not work, there is always a "timeout" error. I tried 3 different systems (Win7, Win10, Win11) all with the same error. What can I do to update the OS? Currently it is Build 3245. How can I update it with DVD? Is there a way? Or a working tool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetdarkdestiny Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I did it the way I wrote above with the exact same tool from above. Used a crosslink cable XBox -> PC. You cant use the browser for the FW update. The provided tool is THE firmware update tool. And I did it on Win7 x64 which worked perfect. So I assume, we have a case of PEBCAK.

meandu Posted March 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 no it`s not me. I used brandnew crosslink cable between Box and PC (works fine with my PS4 and my other OG Xbox). I set IP to 192.168.1.38 while xbox is 192.168.1.37 I can connect via browser so connection works fine. The tool does not work and gets the timeout error. I deactivated firewall and antivirus in windows. I use Win 7 64bit. I also tried a Laptop I have with Win10 and my main PC with Win11. All get the same error message... Any ideas?

sweetdarkdestiny Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Well..... Here is the proof of PEBCAK --> https://youtu.be/tpP3HJFYLxc I have reflashed my smartxx, using the download above and filmed all that. See your self and tell me, again, it's not a case of pebcak. PS: SD is online but for the HD version YT need some minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
