Aladdin is a great chip! you can boot in 3 modes MS bios, protected Xecutor2 bios and unprotected, I usually don’t tell people about the unprotected mode! You install Evox on your hard drive, not the chip.

ihaveanosebleed > i've got alladin advance and want to update my bios i'm supposed to hold power button for 2 seconds yeah? to do this but the green light doesn't flash and i know someone that messed up their chip doing it what am i doing wrong or any1?

[ihaveanosebleed]

Why do you need to update the bios? I don’t own an xbox myself I’ve just installed a few of these chips and leave the Evox software to the owners, I don’t even have a crossover cable. I would say if you don’t need to update, don’t do it!! What BIOS do you want put on it? If I ABSOLUTLY had to update one I would find as much info as possible first. The Aladdin Plus chips have the bios socket so one could probably do a hot swap flash if they got in big trouble. Hopefully I’ll never have to do anything like this. That’s why I don’t tell people about the unprotected mode.

because i have the evox m7 on the alladin chip and on my xectutor chip i have the 4981 and alot of games are giving me dirty disc error don't matter i'll take it to the bloke that chipped it

i really don't rate the evox m7 that much not with the new games anyway
my opinion sorry if i've offended anyone about it

Well, the newest bios block from going on xbox live on accident. And you could change the color of the X, or what name the xbox boots to.

[seaneyb2003]

yea i like that bois i prob usially forget to disable the mod lol.

[ihaveanosebleed]

So is the Aladdin advance plus a decent chip or not? I’d like to know that I’m not installing a piece of junk on these Xbox’s. I haven’t heard any complaints yet so I assumed the stock xecutor2 Bios was working fine. If they do need to be reflashed what do you pro’s recommend for this chip? I will flash them on my next install if the upgrade can be justified.

THE INSTALLER I ASKED SAID HE USED THE M7 BIOS IN THE ALLADIN ADVANCED

The Aladdin is now dated! Most suppliers (including us) are now running down their stock of Aladdins in favour of Applex V and DuoX.

DuoX can be found in the same price range as the Aladdin but is easily the best of the 3.

whens it released?

[Hull_chipper]

Tis in the shops now m8

[seaneyb2003]

wicked i see u sell it how do u solder to it though through wires caus there pads do u drill holes in it or something.

[Hull_chipper]

Lol, they're holes not pads m8 Just lay the chip on the board, then flick solder from across the room & see if you can fill all the holes in one hit

You dont need to remove the motherboard like you do with the Aladdin, it only uses 2 wires which are both on the top of the board. It also uses a 1mb flash so you'll always keep pace with future developments.

The best feature I think though is the boot sequence, it's the opposite way around to the Aladdin & Applex V. A quick tap enables the chip instead of the long press required by the others (I know its not hard but ask a 7yr old which he prefers).
