360Lizard: The Wait is Almost Over - No-Cut, No-Solder Solution for (phat) Lite-on
>> From 360lizard.com:
[QUOTE]
The 360 Lizard device is in its last stage of completion, we have the production completed and all materials have been received. We are currently setting up the inital firmware and testing every unit to ensure the end user receives a top quality item. The reseller shipments will start early next week.

We also are proud to announce a major break-through, The NO-CUT/NO-SOLDER solution for (phat) lite-ons is here and built into the 360lizard device. This is the real deal, NO CUTS, NO SOLDER, NO GLUE-SCAM, this is a complete and tested solution, we will be posting full details really soon. (you know the copycat and mouse game) is why we will not give details until resellers have stock.

This feature will require an extra accesory that will interact with the 360Lizard , please contact your reseller to find out their plan on providing this tool. Since the accessory was not originally part of the standard 360Lizard kit some resellers may or may not include it while others will charge an additional fee for the add-on tool.

Thank you for your patience, we apologize for all the delays. Many thanks to the people who chose to support us.

Thanks to all people involved on this project, such as the research team, factory, the production team amd the many helpers we had to assit in the setup and testing. This is been a very long week spending several hours to ensure you get a perfectly working 360Lizard.

JungleFlasher to fully Support Xecuter x360USB PRO
>> From jungleflasher.net:
[QUOTE]
The JungleFlasher Team are proud to annouce we have been embedding full support for the upcoming XECUTER X360USB PRO. This it the most exciting thing to happen on the flashing scene since JF hit the scene over 2 years ago.

The neat device will simplify flashing for all users. It integrates seemlessly into JF. It shows as I/O port 0x0000, nothing else changes, everything else works as it always does.

The real advantage as we see it:
* Compatibilty: one device, not 1000's of different vendors.
* Support: it works, if you have issues, it has been seen before.
* Installation: Plug it in, ta dah, you're ready.
* Interoperability: works on all current windows OS, signed drivers, no messing.
* Portability: you can take it with you, it's tiny, smaller than a credit card.

This device has been a pleasure to work with. We couldn't have done it better ourselves.

NAND Flasher 360 v1.0.0 for Xbox360
>> Trancy of modcontrol.com ported the NAND Flasher 360 App now to the Xbox 360, so, NAND Flasher 360 is now also an xbox 360 executbale/homebrewapp for xbox 360 consoles with JTAG/SMC hack:
[QUOTE]
NAND Flasher 360 for Xbox allows you to read and write the Xbox 360 NAND on the xbox 360.
It includes the french (thx to gx-mod bugess), english (thx to mountie xxl modcontrol.com) and german languages thanks to a language.ini file which is editable (we hope, that someone will make a spainish translation which the translator can mail to hitman43 /AT/ modcontrol.com).
NAND Flasher 360 for Xbox displays some informations like the nand size, SB revision, mainboard revision and the app has of course the ability to remove Badblocks directly like the PC counterpart NAND Flasher 360 for Windows v1.1.0 does.

What is the NAND Flasher 360 for XBOX?
The NAND Flasher 360 is a NAND -flash program for XBOX 360 (XeX Version). With this program you can update to a
new version of freeboot within minutes. The Data gets verified for each extraction and writing step. Bad blocks
automatically get moved to the appropriate positions (Bad block management). This works for the small as well as
the larger NANDs (16/256/512MB).
Information on the hardware and NAND is also displayed.

Features:
- Simple, easy to use interface (a lot of the more complicated stuff gets done automatically)
- Displays information on the hardware and NAND
- Possible to easily add additional languages
- Bad blocks automatically get relocated (for all NAND sizes, 16/256/512MB)
- Verification process which results in very safe, virtually error-free read and write processes

History
v1.0.0
- Ported from "NAND Flasher 360 for Windows v.1.1.0 "
