xk3y Firmware v1.26 Released With Support For The 1175

After a firmware 1.25 release that was originally bugged, the xk3y team has come through with firmware 1.26, which fixes all the bugs that users were experiencing. Of course, support for the Liteon 1175 drive has been added, along with AoE support. Installation remains rather simple, outside of the fact that you have to perform the Reset Glitch Hack to your Slim, in order to pull the necessary files from thet system. If you're willing to do that, have it working and remain faithful to your ODDE at the end of it, then feel free to get going with your preferred method.

Once you manage to pull your DVD key and 'fwcrt.bin' file from your console, you can proceed with getting your xk3y updated:

1. Extract the three files « rootfs », « uImage » & « xkey.cfg »

2. Open xkey.cfg with Notepad and configure it if needed.
2.1 Add the three files to the root folder of a Flash Drive or HDD. (Make sure to « eject » the drive properly from the PC, it may otherwise cause corrupt files)

3. Connect the Flash drive or HDD to your xk3y remote and wait for the xk3y to start the update.
3.1 The remote OLED will now display « UPDATING – PLEASE WAIT » for about 35 seconds. (Do not turn off your XB360 or disconnect the remote while updating)

4. Once the update is completed, the OLED will display « UPDATE COMPLETE – RESET XBOX » Reboot your xbox and the xk3y should now be updated to the latest firmware.

5. That’s it! Continue to enjoy using xk3y with the new features!

NOTE! If you use the same drive as you store games on to do the update with, then its recommended (not needed) to remove the « rootfs », « uImage » & « xkey.cfg » from the root of your drive after a firmware update. Since keeping them there will cause the xk3y to check the files if they are a newer firmware version then stored on your xk3y micro SD card, and because of that take longer time for your HDD to be recognized.

After all of that, you should be good to go. If you are a registered xk3y user, you can pick up the 1.26 firmware below.
