I can't watch the video right now, but my interest is piqued.
Is "hacked" being used in the "uh oh" way or used in the "useful jailbreak to run homebrew software" kind of way?
Hopefully it's the latter since my OG Xbox's usefulness increased 1,000% after running the MechAssault save file hack to softmod it.
Jailbreak.
Important to note: this exploit is not persistent, meaning you’ll have to redo it anytime the console is shut down or crashes. The 360 doesn’t suspend, so unless you leave it on you’ll be doing the exploit a lot.
In addition it’s only successful 30% of the time, so you have to try the exploit multiple times each time the console boots.
Great progress though - hopefully it leads to something more permanent.
Good to know. Yeah, definitely a great start.
With its capacative power button and where I have it placed, my dogs are really really bad about hitting it with their noses and powering it on/off 😆
I also didn't watch the video. I've watched two about this already though and it's not persistent between reboots. But, other than that, it's pretty useful. You can run homebrew to directly answer your question.
