I’m having to replace this thing called a “security chip” because my xbox guide button and turbo button will not work at all…
I was wondering if there was a tutorial or any tips on how to do this properly…
thanks
Xbox 360 controllers are not hackable due to the security chip. PERIOD.
Please be a bit more specific on your controller hack.
uhm, im replacing my security chip in my te stick, because the 1 i have is broken…i cant push my xbox guide button, madcatz sent me a new one…
sorry if u couldnt understand my question.
The security chip is integrated on an IC on the PCB and is not removable. They are probably sending you a whole new PCB which would make more sense. The customer service probably didn’t want to correct you and cause a argument over the phone and wanted the service call over the phone over as quick as possible.
You will need to:
Take lots of photos of your stick insides noting how the wires are put together on the PCB.
Disconnect all the wire harnesses from your PCB.
Unscrew
Replace PCB and screw in.
Hook up the wire harnesses back in place.
And for the record, xbox 360 pads are hackable.
