What are they?
They are Blown Efuses which let you access your nand to write new firmware.Such as Xbreeboot. . Also once you install Xbreeboot you can run unsigned xex's and let you download free dlc's and games. You can of course do tenth lobbies also.

Where do i get one? There are many trusted and verified sellers on the site that can sell one to you and have it shipped i no time.

Do you recommend one? No if your a just gonna use it to host lobbies and think about making a profit dont. You will not get a full experience of a jtag and or the real purpose of one. YOU WILL NOT MAKE A PROFIT OFF THIS. Unless you are selling your jtag.

Prices? There are different types of jtags here are the prices of all of them...
Xenon: $150-$175
Zephyr:$150-$200
Falcon:$200-$250
Jasper:$250-$300
There is an opus but no one buys it.

What is the difference? Xenon and zephyr are the oldest type of jtags that came around 2005 and are known for overheating(well xenon is) but xenons take bothe types of kvs Type 1 and type2 (ill explain later).
Falcon is the 2nd generation and is known to be better than the first 2
Jaspers are the newest type and are known to have been fixed of RROD(red ring of death)

What are kvs? Kvs are files that pretty much unban your jtag and let you go online. Jtags do get consoled banned and come console banned unless you pay extra for an unbanned one. (if comes unbanned will eventually be banned in about 4-6 hours). Kvs are pricey and only last a certain time.

How much are kvs? Usually around $25-$30 shared and $60-$80 unshared no i do not sell these nor do i sell jtags.

What is the difference between shared and unshared? Unshared is your kv and your kv only so tends to last longer approximately 4-6 hours possibly longer. A shared kv is shared between 3-4 people at once so tends to lag and last only 1-3 hours.

What do you need besides a kv to go online? Your Nand dump/ Flashdmp.bin and your cpu key.

How do you get these? Ask jtag seller for cpu key and for your flashdmp.bin you will need a file called flash360. And you also need a transfer cable.

Download flash360, Drag and drop the media folder and flash360 into your hard drive. Go on jtag, play flash360 and backup your nand. Put hard drive back onto computer and it should be on there. You also need 360 flash to to extract or import kv and unban nand.

Also to run stuff on your jtag even offline you will need something called xex menu which can easily be installed onto your jtag/hard drive. O and i dont suggest buying a jtag until after the new freeboot comes out if a new one does come out which should be after black ops. I only suggest this if you plan on ever going online or plan on going online and dont know how to install the new freeboot IF one does come out.

[COLOR="Red"]What else to know BEFORE BUYING ONE


There has been an additional development in the never-ending battle thats Microsoft trying to keep its gaming method closed to unauthorized use. Xbox-scene reports that a new hack called freeBOOT permits the Xbox 360 to upgrade for the newer kernels, but allows the choice of rebooting to an older kernel in order use the JTAG exploit and gain access towards the hardware.

A jtag is an xbox that allows run homebrew code on an Xbox 360. Exploiting this hack makes it feasible to boot a Linux kernel in about five seconds. Weve long been fans of the homebrew work done with XBMC on the original Xbox and hope that advances like this will lead to that end. We want this simply because the older hardware cannot handle high definition content at full resolution but the Xbox 360 certainly can.


Other facts:

A Jtag also comes console banned(meaning you cannot connect to Xbox Live). You can however buy a Jtag that comes unbanned(it is only unbanned for a few hours). If you get banned or it comes banned you will need a KV(Key Vault) to unban it. Another thing is that soon this month or early next month Microsoft will be coming out with a new dashboard update which will kick Jtag's offline even with a Key Vault. If you are looking to go online anytime soon, DO NOT buy one.

Key Vault:

A Keyvault is the part of an Xbox 360 that makes each console unique. It is the part of the Xbox that Microsoft uses to identify which console is connecting to their servers. There are specific details located inside the Keyvault that makes it so important, one of the main details located in the keyvault is the serial number.

The reason Keyvaults are so important to JTAG's is because you can use them to unban your console. You can swap a keyvault from another unbanned JTAG into your JTAG and then your box magically becomes a different console according to Microsoft.

When a Keyvault gets banned, it doesn't ban just the console, it bans the Keyvault, which means every console using that Keyvault becomes banned,YOU CAN NOT MAKE A KV. But you can extract one.[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Blue"]Where can I get a jtag?
Always look on the site before looking anywhere else. I will post legit sellers threads below. If you are legit post below your main thread ad I will verify.

Types of Jtags:
Xenon: 1st type of jtag(cheapest)
Zephyr:2nd type of jtag(same generation)
Falcon:3rd type of jtag(2nd generation)more updated
Jasper:4th type of jtag(3rd generation)best type but also most expensive.

DO NOT:Buy a Jtag for just mw2 lobbies
With the new dashboard you wont be able to go online. Starting November 4th.

Benefits:
Downloading games for free and getting them early.
If new freeboot comes out will be able to go online

.also all dlc and xbla games are free as well , NO more disks , games can be stored and launched from an internal drive , usb-hdd & usb thumb drive

games can be made region free ( there are some jap titles never make it here many enjoy )

emulators : mame , sega , nes , snes etc

hacked games : modded default xex's with trainers and modded files inside the game

alternate dashboards like freestyle dash

being able to ftp over to 360 from a pc via xex-menu or freestyle dash : grab a game save or profile to mod , or inject some new dlc or xbla game , or dump a full 360 game over to drive without touching a thing physically[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Magenta"]A JTAG allows you to run Unsigned Code that was not written by Microsoft and is not authorized by there systems, not just home-brew as Microsoft do that as well and it can be run on a stock xbox

A Key Vault (KV) is a bin file that is located in your Nand of your JTAG, your Nand is what holds a lot of information including your dashboard version, you can swap out KVs with other decrypted KVs this makes your JTAGs console ID different when connection to XBL

Out there in the world there are unlimited amount of KVs for JTAGs to run off of, the only problem is that these KVs are inside the xboxs Nand, and Nands are encrypted with 32 Hex code which has millions of permutations, from a stock console you can dump the nand easily and you can extract the Enc KV but you need the CPU key to decrypt the Nand and most importantly the KV

Q. How can i tell if my xbox is JTAGABLE?
A. If you're xbox has the dashboard 7371 or lower then chances are you can JTAG the console. However, there are consoles that appear to have 7371 but have a patched CB. If your console has a patched CB then the JTAG hack has been disabled.

Q. How can i check my CB?
A. Dump the nand and open in Degraded.

Q. How can i tell what CB is JTAGABLE and which are not?
A. Exploitable CB versions: (credit for this goes to Eclipse Modz)
1888, 1902, 1903, 1920,1921: exploitable xenon
4558: exploitable Zephyr
5761, 5766, 5770: exploitable falcon

Zephyr: 4571, 4572, 4578, 4579
Falcon/Opus: 5771
Jasper: 6750

Q. How can i do the JTAG hack?
A. Follow theses tutorials:
1. By Eclipse Modz: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

2. By L14M333: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Q. How can i tell what motherboard i have?
A. Look at your power outlet on the xbox and compare to this picture.
Resized to 70% (was 865 x 342) - Click image to enlarge


Q. What are the differences between the motherboards?
A. Xenon- No HDMI, first xbox produced. Tends to overheat very quickly. Has 90nm CPUand 90nm GPU. Produces ALOT of heat.
Zephyr- Same as Xenon, but this one has HDMI.
Falcon- Has HDMI, Doesn't overheat as much as the xenon but still gets kinda hot. First, actual motherboard revision when dealing with infamous RRoD problem. 65nm CPU 90nm GPU
Opus- An opus is just a falcon without HDMI.
Jasper- The first REAL breakthrough against the RRoD problem. This xbox sports a fancy 65 nm CPU and new 65 nm GPU. However, Jaspers are quite rare and go for a lot of money.

Q. When were the xboxs manufactured and how come they come with different power bricks?
A. Xenon- Launched November 2005, uses a 203w power brick
Zephyr- Launched July 2007, uses the 203w power brick
Falcon- Launched September 2007, uses new 175w power brick
Opus- Launched June 2008 as a replacement for RRoD consoles, uses 175w power brick
Jasper- Launched September 2008, uses new 150w power brick

Q. Can i use a 203w power brick on a Jasper?
A. YES, xbox 360 power bricks are FORWARD compatible, not backwards. Ex. A 203w will work on all motherboard revisions. However, a 150w will only work on a Jasper and nothing else.

Q. What is the latest Dashboard?
A. As of right now, the lastest dashboard is 9199.

Q. Where can i find a list of ALL dashboards?
A. Here you go: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Q. Can't i just downgrade my kernelto 7371 or lower so i can JTAG?
A. No, this is the most annoying question ever. No matter what your friend, uncle, bother, god, jesus, allah, or a tiger tells you. The answer is no.

Q. Why can't i JTAG anything above 7371?
A. Because "Microsoft" have private keys stored on the NAND, CPU, GPU and so on, e.g the "GPU Key". But all kernels above 7371 removes those keys (AKA "E-fuses") and makes it impossible for us to read/extract those.

Q. Well, why do i need Xell?
A. You need Xell to get your CPU key.

Q. Why do i need my CPU key?
A. To install your rebooter. Ex FreeBoot 0.032

Q. Why do i need a rebooter?
A. A "rebooter" is needed to be able to boot up into the "hacked" kernel of your chose to then enable features such as: "Homebrews", "Unsigned Code" and direct access to "NAND".

Q. But if i use the latest dashboard update(Kernel) wouldn't that disable the JTAG hack?
A. No. That's where the "rebooter" comes in, It boots up the modified kernel allowing you to use the latest dashboard and still do all the stuff + more, mentioned above.

Q. I just bought a JTAG and hosted my lobby so i can be 1337 for my buddies, how do i unban?
A. In order to unban, you need a new keyvault.

Q. Where can i find one?
A.You would either have to get them by "blackmarketing" or extract them by your self from unbanned consoles (Please notice, to be able to extract a KV, you need to be able to "JTAG" the console.

Q. I got KV, now what.
A. Now you are ready to unban. Here is a tutorial on how to do this: [Tut] Switching out KeyVaults (YOU WILL NEED XeXmenu)

Q. How do i install XeXmenu 1.1?
A. Here you go. VERY simple. Download: Here

Q. How can i host modded lobbies?
A. You need a default_mp.xex with the latest title update, a patch_mp.ff, a brain.

Q. Where can i find these?
A. The default_mp.xex is considered warez, so i can't post it here. However, go to deany95.com/shares > Shares > All xbox 360 files > Games > Call of duty modern warfare 2> Xbox 360, and there you go. To get patch mp.ff instead of clicking "Xbox 360", click patch_mp.ff's.

Q. How do i insert them?
A. Download an MW2 iso, again this is warez so i can't post it. Anyways, download wx360 and open up the mw2 iso you just downloaded and click "Extract all", this will extract all files from the iso to a folder you want. Now, just drag and drop the default_mp.xex in, if it asks to replace click yes. Then drop the patch_mp.ff in, this time you should not be asked for replace or no replace.


Q. What if i want to get halo on my jtag and do an aimbot?
A. Do the same as MW2, but for halo you need a modded default.xex which can be found on deany's website, deany95.com/shares. Just drap and drop in a follow the ftp process to your jtag. You DO NOT NEED a patch_mp.ff

Q. How and why do jtags get banned so fast?
A. Basically Microsoft tracks down an Xbox'x KeyVault in order to ban it -this is how they get banned. They get banned so fast because what a Jtag does is run script that is not allowed so Microsoft will pick up on it really fast.

Q. How do I install XboxReBoot?
A. Here's a tut. Thread

Q.Is there anything a certain jtag can do that another one can't?
A.No, they all do the same thing.

Q. How do I downgrade from freeboot .32 to .30?
A. Here's a tutorial I posted to game-tuts: Thread
If anyone has any suggestions please post them, i will edit the thread.

Q. Where can I buy them?
A. Well this site doesn't support B/S/T but TTG has some legit sellers and I bet you can find one off of ioffer.

I am inclined to believe that you have copy and pasted this.

Why?

Because you posted prices twice.

Posted two links to Sevensins,despite there being stickies on TTG on how to do the Jtag Hack.

I'm not saying you didn't write all of this.

I'm just saying I do not believe you did.

Edit: Hmm,you have edited it and added red text..

You should have put that there first really,and yes,the codes are slightly different.

I don't go on 7s so I don't think I need that thread considering the original is on GameTuts.

If you need even more proof look at the dates of them, and message me on both accounts. They are me.
