flashing magic3's

[mat72]

I was wondering if the chips on the magic 3's(baught) are flashable or just OTW. ie, if the 3.1 code gets released, can i upgrade them?

I've the same doubt!

Have you received any answer???

[hhh]

it is (re)flashable. But don't expect 3.1 to be released soon

[Kid Buu]

Same goes for 3.5?

[IceWind]

The magic 3.1, is already out.
And you can buy modchip with it already.
A few sites have it, but is avaiable.

Regarding the re-flashability

How can i do that?

you can reflash it , but u need a SX programmer , and then you also need to put a resistor on anothert point , because the points have swapped to accomodate sleep

Any more details robot, such as which points for the resistor etc.
thx

some programmers you can program with the resonator and resistor in curcuit

ID take them off program the chips with the 4 points +5v osc1 osc2 and GND

then put the resonator and resistor back on.


depending on which code :

for blackcat code you need to swap points A and Z.

for RCE ICe code you need to swap points A and Z and Reset and W and you would also then take off resitor from reset line and put it on point W

best alternative for ypu guys is to program a 12c508 and wire it with your current magic3.

This 12c508 addon fixes the dvd hang problem by putting the chip to sleep
