eXOBeX released a new version of X360SAM - a DOS-based flasher/key-copier for Toshiba-Samsung TS-H943 drives



Another release, another feature added. This time: disk error checking!
If for any reason X360SAM cannot complete its job (due to a disk read/write error or the disk being full) it will delete the part-made file and stop with an error message. It will also now set the DOS ERRORLEVEL according to why it's stopped:
0 = completed successfully
1 = aborted (disk error, required files missing, unwanted files present)
2 = "usage" screen displayed (not enough/too many parameters given)

X360SAM is a small MSDOS application which will take your original Samsung firmware plus a hacked firmware (such as XTREME.BIN) and will create a new hacked firmware containing the correct DVD key. This is done using Sniperkilla's method (copying bytes $4000-$43FF from the original file).

Also included are four batch files:
- SAMREAD.BAT: This will create a folder especially for that Xbox, read the firmware from the drive, storing it in the folder as ORIG.BIN. It will then use X360SAM.EXE to create a hacked version (called HACKED.BIN), storing it in the same folder.
- SAMHACK.BAT: This flashes the HACKED.BIN file (created by SAMREAD.BAT) onto the drive.
- SAMREMOD.BAT: This does the same as SAMREAD.BAT but without re-reading ORIG.BIN from the 360. Useful if you've used X360SAM in the past, but now you want to flash a newer firmware to the same drive.
- SAMORIG.BAT: This flashes the ORIG.BIN file (created by SAMREAD.BAT) back onto the drive.
