Watch in HD. In this video series, I will be demonstrating how the JTAG hack is executed on an Xbox 360. This tutorial assumes an intermediate level knowledge of electronics.
Please take note of the following requirements to complete this project:
– A PC with an LPT port.
– A CAT5 cable.
– An LPT printer cable or male connector.
– A soldering iron.
– Reasonably good soldering skills.
– An Xbox 360 with a Xenon motherboard and a dashboard revision below the 8xxx series.
– Torx 8 and 10 screwdrivers, and optionally, a flathead screwdriver.
To identify your motherboard, you can refer to the diagram below from 360-hq.com:
If your board-side power connector matches the first image and you do not have a HDMI port, you have a Xenon motherboard. Please do not ask me about dashboard downgrades, assistance with the 10th perstige glitch, or if there is some way to apply the JTAG hack to an updated console. If your dashboard version number starts with an “8″, you will not be able to apply the JTAG hack under ANY circumstances.
Regarding 10th prestige:
This is all but impossible to achieve now with a JTAG Xbox 360. Any Xbox 360 signing into Xbox LIVE with the JTAG hack will be BANNED within MINUTES. There is no way to avoid this. Please make sure you understand all of this BEFORE you PM me, as the volume of messages continues to increase!
