Maximus 360 FW Toolbox v3.1 with Garyopa Hitachi-LG Xtreme v1.7 Jitter-FixPublished by endless on Thursday, May 10, 2007 Tagged: Homebrew, Xbox 360, Garyopa, Maximus and C4E released a new Xtreme firmware + flashing tool for Hitachi-LG drives with the Disc-Jitter fix added and some support for v79 firmwares:
Maximus - 360 Firmware Toolbox(homebrew info) v3.1 (with Garyopa Disc Jitter Check)
Big Thanks to C4E for his ideas on the Disc-Jitter check and to Garyopa for the implementation on Hitachi versions
WHATS NEW ON V3.1:
* Added: Hitachi Xtreme 1.7 (Disc Jitter Fix)
* Added: Smart Hack Patcher now works for all Production Drives V40 thru v79
* Added: Correctly show and handle of keys for Hit79 drives
* Corrected: Bug displaying Samsung FW as spoofed (display error)
* Corrected: Several other bugs
* Improved : Checksum checkup when dumping
* Added: OCX's included on the release (they are available on Microsoft site anyway)
Release Notes:
On Xtreme 1.7 the F900 core and Stealth FW have been removed. This could be seen as a Step Back, but indeed is 2 steps ahead.
By one side we are trying to build one solid application (toolbox) that would make easier the future Hitachi Releases (which currently its a pain because of all the variations) and by other side it incorporates Disc-Jitter check fix for Hitachi drives.
The F900 core needs more work and can be easily incorporated on future versions along with other goodies that already are under development (media-stealth, single layer support, etc).
The Fw Stealth was a good idea but it has been proven that the fw could be readed by other means, indeed the newer versions (78+) does not have the need to implement stealth so I think it will not be used anymore.
WHAT IS NEXT ON FUTURE TOOLBOX VERSIONS ?:
* Direct dump/flash of 79 drives
* Smart Hack Patcher configurable by script (avoid hard coded rules)
* Restore and Patch Wizards (for totally noobs)

WHAT IS IT ?
----------
A graphical tool to handle several common dvd-drive firmware tasks. This is the better tool you will find. You can copy-paste the keys from one firmware to another not matter if they are different vendor (samsung or hitachi) and not matter the version of the FW
Allows SMART PATCH for rolling code firmwares (Hitachi 0078) and also Direct Flash on all drives, even the nasty 78 drives.
RAWDUMP does not work fine with SIL chipsets yet, be aware of use the validate checksum feature to avoid bad dumps and bricks. We
will be working on SIL chipsets later.
The flasher/restore appears to be rock solid now, also very easy to understand, so this could be the base to flash future firmware releases, even on the 78
FEATURES:
---------
- Direct Dump and Direct Flash over all versions of GDR3120L drives even the 0078 FK drives.
- Allow copy-paste of the keys between firmare not matter if they are crypted or not or if they are different vendor or even better, not matter which version of Fw (46,47,59,78 etc)
- Do common firmware tasks with a mouse click
- Supports Samsung and Hitachi firmwares All Versions
- Shows Vendor, ROM version and also if its CRYPTED or NOT
- Allow crypt or decrypt the files
- Shows the 16 byte Keys not matter if the file is Crypted
- Allows adding of TAGS to a KEY like Owner, Serial No, Date. (Dont worry, the tags are not saved onto firmware file)
- Fully Integrated with Windows Context Menu (like winrar)
- Fully Supports 512 KB firmwares (2 banks)

hacked versions. (Samsung on FFE0, Hitachi on 37F0) In case of 512 KB roms will only show for bank 0

WHAT IS NEXT ON FUTURE TOOLBOX VERSIONS ?:

Options-Enable Windows Context Menu. Also RAWDUMP does not work fine with SIL chipsets, be aware of use the validate checksum feature
to avoid bad dumps and bricks
Some USB 2 SATA Adapters hangs at the moment of dumping, use a
Native Sata PC
