The Cygnos 360 v2.0 is a 3-in-1 device for the XBOX 360, it is a JTAG interface, a downgrader and a full multi kernel switcher. Cygnos v2 360 allows you to do amazing things to your 360 console including; running keyvault which in some cases allows you to:
- change console region
- change DVD-ROM key
- change serial data from console
and many many more!
run FREEBOOT to allow you to run homebrew, other operating systems any many more things on your console, play games from your hard drive.
Enable the console to switch to different region codes, so you can play NTSC Games on a PAL console and vice versa, without needing the CPU key.
Retrieve the Key Vault from Jasper and Falcon motherboard revisions, and retrieve the DVD Key on a main board with a non-venerable kernel.
Manufacturers feature list:
- downgrade Xbox360 (production before August 2007)
- switch between the kernel on your Xbox360 and the kernel on Cygnos360 V2 (for example for region-code switching or switching to homebrew/exploitable kernel)
- no lifting of CE-pin or cutting of traces neccessary
- protect your data by storing offline information on the Cygnos360 V2 NAND-flash and avoid banning (dirty-NAND concept)
- directly downgrade on the Cygnos360 V2 NAND-flash
- easy quicksolder installation of Cygnos360 V2
- Cygnos360 V2 firmware can be up- und downgraded to any version in the field
- built from high quality components
- downgrading takes 1h15m on average on a middle-class PC
- reading from and writing to NAND-flash takes less than a minute each
- easy to use
- a reliable solution for downgrading (Xenon mainboards)
- run Linux (Xenon mainboards)
- read and flash your Xbox360 and Cygnos360 V2 NAND-flash in less than one minute
- Infectus is no longer needed for any of the functions
The Cygnos360 v2.0 has an onboard NAND-flash memory and the external addon (included) allows you to flash it with a PC via USB. With the external switch you can also easily switch between the motherboard and Cygnos flash memory, so u can switch between the lastest MS kernel and an exploitable kernel to boot Linux via the King Kong exploit. Or you could also have 2 kernels with a different game/video region for example. Another possible use is to have the lastest kernel on both and if you're concerned Microsoft keeps logs/flags on the NAND of what you play when you're offline ... u can use the cygnos flash when playing offline and the motherboard flash when playing online.
The device has everything you need to flash/read the flash memories, get your CPU key (needed to make a modified or manual-downgraded kernel work) and also includes all hardware to perform the Time Attack exploit on your Xbox360 (which allows to still retrieve your CPU key even if you're on a kernel newer than the exploitable kernels). However remember the Time Attack only works on 360s before Microsoft changed the GPU (which are all non-hdmi consoles and those made before ~August 2007) which can still boot on kernel 1888 (needed for the Time Attack).
*** This device is for development purposes and has no warranty express or implied against any damage that may be caused to your console. Compatibility may change as new kernel's and dashboards are released as well as new hardware revisions. |
