Maximus - FIRMWARE TOOLBOX V4.0

Maximus - FIRMWARE TOOLBOX V4.0
Published by endless on Tuesday, July 10, 2007

New toolbox has been released to complement iXtrm Hiachi v1.2 firmware.

Nfo Follows

The credit on ixtreme firmware is for Commodore4eva, I only ported to
Fw toolbox to support all variants of 78/79 drives (and upper).

SPECIAL NOTE ON FLASHING HITACHI 79FK DRIVES:

Sorry for the confusion that the "79 flashing" video have caused, that
video was uploaded by one no-more-beta-tester without my permision. I wake
up this morning flooded by tons of emails for congratulations and I feel
the need to clarify the situation.

It is possible to flash by software the 79 drives but needs the previous
installation of a physical device (as the one proposed by team xecuter).

Click the read more link below to view the entire story..

Hardware devices will be needed until a better solution arrives (our
research never stop). Me and some friends have developed also a small
device to allow the flashing, the info can be accesed here:

Back on topic:

WHATS NEW ON V4.00:

- Added: Smart Hack Patcher now implements ixtreme 1.2 (thanks to c4e)
- Added: Now Supports 100% BENQ Firmwares (spoof, key changing, etc)
- Added: Option to Restore Original Firmwares based on any dump you have
- Corrected: Several other bugs
- Added: OCX's included on the release
(there are available on Microsoft site anyway)

Release Notes:
On Xtreme 1.2 the F900 have been removed (and fw stealth for 78/79
drives is also removed since those drives does not need it)

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.

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.

News-Source: http://www.xbins.org

The update feature built into firmware toolbox, is not working currently, so you will have to download the app if you need it.

You can find it at the normal places, or use this xbins app, to get it yourself.
