After nearly four months of wait, the next hack for Xbox 360 is finqlly being released! Named R-JTAG, this hack is developed by the famous Xecuter team, pioneering of the same scene although its philosophy was more or less challenged in those past recent years. The information on this new feat is finally beginning to be more accurate as a ticket has been dedicated to him on the official website of the TX.
Apparently far from being a simple clone or a version 3 of the Reset Glitch Hack, R-JTAG seems to be a feat based on an anachronistic (or almost) JTAG. However, we know that the JTAG requires a very low kernel. The only alternative solution to the launch of unsigned code on the Xbox with dashboard higher than 7371 is then, to this day, the RGH v1 or v2. But as most technicians have found to their delight, the RGH 2.0 on Fat does not give brilliant results, especially with the Falcon motherboards. The Slim are lucky to be promoted. But then, what to do for these Fat incompatible JTAG and sadly allergic to RGH?
Therefore the R-JTAG revolution is coming in. This new feat brings what was sorely lacking to the JTAG format: the support of all kernels. It is also compatible with all motherboards of Fat consoles only. The boot time with this hack are more respectable because they are similar to the ones of JTAG and RGH 1 and therefore are between 0 and 10 seconds. You will surely understand that the Slim is not supported but is it really a tragedy, I do not think so.
It only remains to wait quietly until the official release of R-JTAG, the date has not been disclosed but we can assume it will be soon. In the meantime, here are the characteristics of the R-JTAG in list form:
- R-JTAG comes in two flavors – a starter kit and an ultimate kit with all the bells and whistles
- The first release will support Zephyr, Opus, Falcon, Jasper
- There will be a Xenon only version
- Boot speeds are similar to JTAG and RGH1 (from instaboot to 10 seconds)
- Full POST Monitoring with RATER and JRP v2
- Dual Nand works fantastic with the DemoN – especially for Stock / Hacked Nand setups
- No more need for RGH1/RGH2
- Works on the very latest dash/kernel versions
- Solid, reliable booting
People who have tested this feat seem forward the idea of very promising results, as you can read it below:
-
There are a extremely large portion of instant boots! considering RGH1
and RGH2 were beyond useless on this console – Its fu##in awesome!
-
My Jasper has never taken more than 15 seconds to boot. I've been using
it for months now with an older, unrefined version of the hack. So
yeah, its pretty good.
- With RJTAG Falcons are now more reliable than Jaspers…..again. We're back to RGH1-type days.
- My Split CB Falcon would never boot with RGH2 – it now boots between 7 and 15 seconds every time
- Jasper 512 .. wouldn't boot at all with RGH2 – now check out my these Rater timings with RJTAG – WoW
Finally, I leave you appreciate this good news with these two shots, one of the starter kit and the other one of the ultimate kit.
**MAJ 01/05/13 at 13h20** :
The announcement of the team has had a lot of reactions and there are many who say that this feat is actually a mixture of two other hacks: it would be mainly based on the RGH and would operate some features of JTAG. Xecuter let us swim in the dark.
Otherwise, the price of the kits are finally known: R-JTAG Starter Kit MSRP will cost $ 34.95 and R-JTAG Ultimate Kit MSRP $ 54.95!
The team RGLoader released the new version of their nand builder for consoles Jtagged or Glitched, which, unlike xebuild, does not boot on a kernel retail (the standard Microsoft dashboard), but on a Kernel Devkit.
With this, you will be able to convert your retail console into devkit and have access to the basic functions of Devkit. Changelog of this version:
Added 16202
-RGLoader.xex now dynamically targets 14719/15574/or 16202 (16197 may be incomplete)
-Drag and drop load on rgbuild gui
-Reserve space for payloads in FS area(fixes bootanim overwrite by patches)
-RGBuild will now accept any kernel version as valid

/ - | Features | - \
===================Custom Boot Animations=======================
Set 'Boot_Animation_Path = \SystemRoot\RGL_bootanim.xex' in rgloader.ini on your hard drive root, and place a bootanimation wmv on the hard drive root named bootanim.wmv and it will play this movie file when the xbox boots.
NOTICE:
The only way we were able to load wmvs was by waiting for the kernel to fully load before running the boot animation. This doesn't make a lot of sense, and does increase the boot time by a few seconds so we are working on a way of replacing the normal one. If you do not like this delay, feel free to switch back to the regular animation by:
-Delete 'Boot_Animation_Path' from rgloader.ini on the hard drive root.
-Set 'disable_bootanim = 0' in options.ini, and rebuild/flash your nand image.
================================================================
=========================Corona RGH=============================
RGLoader has been updated to work with 16MB corona motherboards.
================================================================
=================Retail Profile Encryption======================
This enables use of retail/live profiles on the RGLoader devkit kernel. The devkit kernel handles profiles differently from retail so there is a chance it will corrupt your profile. This mostly effects live profiles. Do not enable this if you have live profiles on your hard drive! Backup your CONTENT folder first if you want to experiment Wink
NOTE: This is a beta feature and the bugs will be fixed soon.
Usage:
Set Retail_Profile_Encryption = 1 under [Expansion] in rgloader.ini
================================================================
======================JTAG Support==============================
When building a jtag image, you must supply an already jtagged NAND. This way any customizations to your SMC will be kept and also if your crc does not match it will not matter. (this will not be necedsary in final release)
NOTE: When an already patched SMC is supplied, the builder will say (unable to patch). Just ignore this.
XELL HAS BEEN ADDED TO JTAG IMAGES! Smile
================================================================
================Flexible Systemroot Patches=====================
(hard drive free installs!)
We have added a new feature to replace the E90 error that gets thrown when
the hard drive is missing or files have been misnamed. If any errors occur during its attempt to remap systemroot to the hard drive (wrong folder name, hdd unplugged, etc..) it will boot into minimal NAND only mode where the devkit launcher dashboard will still boot. This means that a hard drive is not necessary to run RGLoader! This also means that you can just flash the image on and use minimal mode to copy
and setup the hard drive files for the full installation using xbox neighborhood. It is not recommended to use the minimal mode, but it does work.
================================================================
=====================DUMMY KV Generation========================
To protect you from getting your keyvaults banned, we have added an option to options.ini for creating a temporary dummy KV. This sometimes introduces a lag when going to the dashboard and some xex caused by the xbox live connection timeout. If this annoys you, just disable it in options.ini and we will get it fixed soon.
================================================================

While Sony announced the PS4 a few weeks ago, in a rather disappointing and incomplete conference, it is the turn of Microsoft to release its new Xbox. No official information has been revealed so far, but all indications are that the giant american will do everything to put its competitor ever down.
The official date of this new release will be in May the 21st 2013 at 7pm (French time) on 'Xbox.com website or via Xbox LIVE, directly from your console. The LS report will be of course writen the same day: the appointment is made!
After the arrival of x360 POA v1.0 almost a month ago, SoulHeaven and Librasoft had announced the upcoming release of their new product, x360 SpiFlasher V2.1. Compatible with all motherboards currently available (including Corona 4g), it also allows the programming of most available Glitch chips.
Regarding the dump speed, it is equivalent to Nand-X, about 2min10 for Nand of 16Mb for the Corona V2/V4, less than 5 seconds for the one of 48MB. You can already order it from Librasoft for 49 € in immediate availability.
The drivers are the same as the x360Spi Flasher V1. The documentation should soon be online.
After x360 CQA For DNA v1.0, SoulHeaven and Librasoft are offering us now their new product dedicated to Corona V3 and V4: thex360 POA v1.0. The X360 POA is the cheapest PostFix on the market, offered at 8 € TTC.
SoulHeaven is taking the opportunity to announce within weeks a new product: x360SPIFlasher v2. It replaces the x360 Jtag To USB and x360 Spi Flasher and also loads a Nand Reader.
It is therefore compatible with all chips Glitch for programming the chip as well as all models of motherboards for the nand dump: Xenon, Zephyr, Opus, Falcon, Jasper, JasperBB, Trinity, Corona v1, v2, v3, and v4. The x360SPIFlasher v2 also has a big advantage compared to other competing products, but this information will be revealed in due time.
Aurélien07, member of Logic Sunrise, announced, via the forum; the arrival of its amended version of the skin originally created by hacklink: Metro Black. Followed by many people, the availability of this skin will make many happy, me first!
The first screenshots have emerged on the topic started by hacklink, that you can follow in this link à cette adresse. This new version takes into account the new version of FSD, the 735.

While since several weeks, Squirt team had not shown up, she announced, via her official website, the arrival of a new version of its Squirt Programmer. This version 2 is expected to arrive to retailers in late March for a price of around € 25 (€ 5 more than the V1 one).
News of this V2 are few but essential. The add on the programmer of a transformer with 8BIT power from 3.7V to 1.8V will allow for example to do like the "MISS" function of the CR3Pro, which aims to optimize the boot time of the console.
Dear Users, we are happy to introduce you "SQUIRT PROGRAMMER V2" This new version add a simple but very useful IC on board, an 8BIT Power translator from 3.7V to 1.8V. This simple IC open the door to connect the SQUIRT FTDI interface to any device. The release date: End of march 2013 Cost? About 5 eur more then standard version What are the possible application? -Connect to the POST BUS of x360 for debug and RGH optimization (like

Since the leak that had earned the Team Xecuter a little clarification regarding their method for the use of DGX, the team updates its program to get rid of this module to dump your keys on CPU on any dashboard.
- Added DGX to RGX Conversion XSVF's
- Added TX released ECC files For use to obtain CPUKeys on dashes greater than 14719
- Removed Write DGX Options (now writes correct ECC dependant upon nand loaded/selected)
- Added Menu option to write new ECC files if you havent loaded a nand
- Added Ability for LPT to write x128 XSVFs
- Added Protection check whilst using JR Programmer (in case you stupidly try to write a XSVF to CR3Pro)
- Moved Trinity XSVF radio button into RGH2 group
- Fixed bug creating image without nanddump.bin
- Fixed bug on Custom XeBuild Commands
