We will also introduce partial flashing possibility by then so that you can do certain “fixes” as well now using the Cygnos Toolbox. Programming, which is then a 64Mb partial flash takes merely 2 to 3 minutes.

Preliminary tests on the prototypes give us less than 10 minutes on dumping a full 512 Mb image and about 5 minutes for the 256Mb version.

This will not be a firmware update but rather another hardware revision. We hope to release this before mid February. We have this already running on prototypes in our lab and we are finalizing tests. Many people are asking each day about “big block support”, meaning the Jasper versions with 256 and 512 Mb NAND flashes.

The installation manual has been updated to give you a better understanding about installing a Cygnos360 v2.Ĭygnos360 V2 for 16Mb NAND 360s is available in many countries around the world now with more shops and install-services coming in. Instead of the resistors or diodes, we are directly talking to the jtag port with appropriate voltages rather than with an approximate value. In addition to that, we have been able to get rid of the necessity to solder resistors or diodes to perform the JTAG hack which further simplifies installation, leaves less room to make mistakes and increases success rates of launching the exploit. The new toolbox is also available which fixes small problems and makes flashing even more reliable. With the new firmware v1.03, programming takes 24 seconds and reading 28 seconds.

We have significantly increased the flashing speed for 16Mb xbox 360 NANDs. We have made major improvements to our Cygnos360 v2 Firmware which is now in 1.03 final. We have not held a winter sleep either and continued to further improve the Cygnos360 V2. Looks like it’s going to be a good year for Xbox 360 enthusiasts with all those neat applications coming in on almost a daily basis now. We have also release a new version of the toolbox (Version 1.09, see the download section)įirst of all, happy new year to everyone and welcome to 2010. Next week more stores are going to follow. Revision F is already on the way to some of our resellers which will stock them end of this week. It is now in its 6 th revision and we are proud to used each step to make it more perfect.

The Cygnos360 V2 is faster, more reliable and easier to install than any alternative solutions. The images created are highly reliable as we have implemented error checking during the transfer. Reading a full 512Mb image takes less than 10 minutes, a 16Mb image less than 2 minutes. Our tests show very fast programming and reading times. The reasons for this are, you don’t really need the dual NAND feature anymore on the home brew stuff and it allows us to make one version that fits all Xbox 360 versions.Ĭygnos 360 V2 is now available for Xenon, Opus, Falcon, Zephyr, as well as all different Jasper versions (16, 256 & 512). The new version does not carry a secondary NAND anymore so it is a single flasher, not a dual NAND. Cygnos360 V2 Ref F fits nicely onto the underside of the Xbox360 mainboards and connects to the Jtag port via quicksolders (no resistors or cables needed here) Take a look at the photo, you will see on the top right the new quicksolder pads that sit directly on the jtag port.) In addition to the added support for big blocks the new version ads more quicksolder pads which means less cables are required. The new version is now able to read and program also the so called “big block NANDs” which are the 256Mb and 512Mb mainboard versions if the Xbox360. We have finally released our “big block NAND” version which we labled Revision F.
