Dumping Xbox / Xbox 360 security sector ranges

[iR0b0t]

Because it should not skip any sectors besides those in ss ranges, i would say.

Requiring manual input of ss ranges is silly, it should allow input from ss_sector_range txt or from ss.bin directly.

Is there a way to try this by manually adjusting the sector ranges (in the txt file generated from the SS.bin) with freecell?

Still doesn't work.

Yes. if reading error occurs out of the ss ranges, its sector is bad.

I think so too. Btw I found this https://web.archive.org/web/20081221213 … ng_pref=en

Code: Select all

where ss.bin is a raw dump (2064 bytes) of data @PSN 0xFD21E

We may get the ss.bin by xbox raw dumping without kreon drive... I'll try it.

Yeah I guess we never tried that before.. Can PSN 0xFD021E be approached as a sector number?

Code: Select all

donde ss.bin es un dump en bruto (2064 bytes) del PSN 0xFD021E

I googled '0xFD021E', and it seems this value is correct, not '0xFD21E'.
'0xFD021E' is the lead-out area of layer 1.

Forgot to show you the logs back then. It works (though, the SS ranges are unstable), but for some reason the dump itself always has different sizes, why?

Because reading error occurred out of the ss range.

But shouldn't DIC keep the total image size? Padding the bad blocks with zeroes or with 0x55 or something else?
