Xbox 360 reset glitch hack v1.00

1- List of folders and what they are for:

\common                      : Common files between slim 360s and fat 360s.
\common\lptjtag_programmer   : Schematics for a simple cpld programmer using PC LPT parallel port.
You need to power both the programmer and the CPLD with 3.3 volts.
\common\imgbuild             : Python script to build a NAND flash image.
\common\cdxell               : Replacement CD that runs Xell, CDjasper is for jaspers and CD is for anything else.
\common\xell                 : Xell image, reset glitch hack version.
\fat                         : Files for fat 360s.
\fat\glitch48nofullpost      : CPLD code, one for each hardware revision.
\fat\wiring                  : Schematics and pictures.
\slim                        : Files for slim 360s.
\slim\glitchslimnodp         : CPLD code.
\slim\wiring                 : Schematics and pictures.

2- Basic procedure for fat 360s (zephyr, jasper)

2.1- Program the CPLD using Xilinx Impact, a CPLD programmer of your choice and the JED file for
your 360 hardware revision.

2.2- Wire your 360 using the schematics and pictures located in /fat/wiring

- If you are using a CMOD board, don't forget to remove R2 and short R3 on it.
- Wire ground with thicker wire.

2.3- Build the NAND image, eg for a jasper the command should be something like:

python common\imgbuild\build.py original_nand.ecc common\cdxell\CDjasper common\xell\xell-gggggg.bin

(You need to dump your NAND prior to that)
(If you don't have a jasper, you'll need a copy of a stock plaintext jasper SMC (v2.3) )

2.4- Flash the resulting output\image_00000000.ecc using the NandPro +w command.

3- Basic procedure for slim 360s (trinity)

3.1- Program the CPLD using Xilinx Impact, a CPLD programmer of your choice and the JED file for
your 360 hardware revision.

3.2- Wire your 360 using the schematics and pictures located in /slim/wiring.

- If you are using a CMOD board, don't forget to remove R2 connect upper pad of R2 to lower pad of
R1 on the CMOD.
- Wire ground with thicker wire.

3.3- Build the NAND image, eg the command should be something like:

python common\imgbuild\build.py original_nand.ecc common\cdxell\CD common\xell\xell-gggggg.bin

(You need to dump your NAND prior to that)

3.4- Flash the resulting output\image_00000000.ecc using the NandPro +w command.

4- Enjoy your hacked 360 =)
