Xbox One Hack – Is Team Xecuter working on an Xbox One mod?
Those of you who have been on the Xbox scene for a long time probably know Team Xecuter. Team Xecuter is behind some of the most popular hardware mods for the Xbox 360.
Although exploits have been confirmed for the Wii U and the PS4, The Xbox One hasn’t seen that much hacking activity lately. Partly because it is less popular than the Ps4 so far, but that might not be the only reason.
I recently blogged about a year-old technique used in Indonesia to load the Xbox One with pirated AAA games. In the comments of that article, people mentioned that Team Xecuter might be working on some Xbox One hack, so I got curious and decided to verify.
About a week ago, the administrator of Team Xecuter’s website posted the following:
We have a few DoDo birds running around our TX HQ right now.
I would love to share a picture of them, but they are very shy birds, and I don’t want to disturb them as they are busy working on new product for something that is called One…..
That was as a reply to somebody stating that Team Xecuter’s products were similar to Dodo birds: extinct.
So, it seems Team Xecuter are working on the Xbox One, but the admin added:
Sadly, the way it stands i see in my crystal dodo bird ball, that wii u and ps4 will have products for it before xb1.
I personally am upset about that, but lets face the truth xb1 is in second place, only thing that might save it is TX!
When people asked if this was because of better security measures on the Xbox One, he replied:
more like better lawyers or MIB people, already two of my close friends are behind bars because of the XB1, that never occured with big ‘N’ or the crab ‘Sony’
So to summarize, Team Xecuter are apparently working on Xbox One hacks, have already something (prototypes?) in progress but can’t show it yet, and they expect that PS4 and Wii U will be hacked way before we see anything for the PS4. That’s, err… not really committing much?
People have mentioned that Team Xecuter have been trying to get more attention lately by dropping similar “we’re working on a XBone hack” statements, but that no proof has been given.
What are your thoughts?

Cool. Probably getthing a xboxone soon maybe.
Don’t bother if you have a PS4 or PC. I use mine for a Time Warner digital cable box and little else
Wait a minute, you can get arrested for modding a console? For *** real?
Apparently from xbox yes
Well I do mean that you changing stuff that would be with other people’s accounts right? and be able to get “free stuff” without paying correct?
Much more likely to get it from ‘facilitating crime’ laws. If you run a business that sells tools that help thieves steal games then you definitely don’t stand much of a chance with a judge in most countries… especially if, unlike PS3 the hacks don’t have any ‘other uses’ like OtherOS or Homebrew.
It’s hard to argue homebrew when the console arch is x86 and thus any homebrew would work on PC.
Eh, it’s TX, they release something when it’s ready. No use in them building up hype if it’s not even close to being ready. I rather have something released that can run unsigned code thoigh, even if I have to pay for it. Just being able to pirate games seems pointless now when you can do that on so many other playforms.
Being personally involved with people who worked on the previous chips and hardware for the xbox360 I can tell you that…
#1 team xecuter was sold to a third party a bit ago.
#2 none of the originally team are working on anything other then controller mods currently.
#3 from that end of the spectrum no movement has been made.
#4 Yes it’s because it the security of the console, the only reason anyone has ended up in jail or sued is due to using stolen kits, stealing kits, hacking publishers, or other things….
There’s a single person I know with minor experience trying to mess with the Xbox One but not one person has made any sufficient or worthy movement on it… Barely anyone even has an activated devkit who is both experienced enough and interested in hacking the console.
Typo. 2nd last paragraph. “Anything for the ps4” should read “anything for the xb1”
With all these news articles about having system hacks and not putting anything out there, I feel as if people would believe me if I created a Console called One4U that plays Xbox One, PS4 and Wii U games with backward compatibility for PS3, PS2, PS1, PSP, Xbox 360, Xbox, Wii & GameCube….it also has FORWARD compatibility with the ability to reflash the firmware on it for when the next Xbox comes out, PS5 and Nintendo NX. Not only that, when you’re finished playing games on it, you can push a button and it will go make you a burrito and bring you a beer
It’s called a PC XD
I think the OP means that there will be hacks on PS4 and Wii U before there are any on XBOX one, but he didn’t say that (second to last paragraph).
Great News for xbox one, tx had done a great job xbox 360 on the rgh side lets hope something similar is coming for xbone.
Why would anyone waste time on a no games box?
Utterly stupid comment, as much as I dislike the xbox it has plenty games for it, the only reason it got so far behind on sales was the stupid high price, the forced kinect at launch and the stupid drm before launch
heck, who cares… They are trying to say theyre working on something but actually have nothing at all to contribute to XB1.
I dont know whos worse, someone whos trying to get attention for nothing or those who have something but dont release anything…
Then theres those who report about it as if theres news when there isnt…
By the time anything is out majority wont be able to utilize any of it anyways since we’ve all updated already and those with spare systems on old firmware will have a shiny paper weight for a long time to come from the looks of it..
Wheres the Geohots out there who arent scared to actually release something for PS4?
geohot is scared lol ask him to try and break the ps4 and see what he says
All i can say is i use TX product for long 13 year and until now they still work,i’m 100% satisfed about TX products,and also is the only team that release a good quality dual nand xboxlive product for xbox360 with dswitch support and hight quality hw & software. also all time that i ask help to they in theyr forum they always helps me ,also i like about they that they give userfrendly easy product and also they give it with good quality box and support hw stuff.
I hav use also trinand trident matrix,dual nand squirt etc. but TX dual nand demon is really the best and the beast.
Well, they are not that friendly on there forum, and who the heck knows what is dswitch anyway 😕 It was never used by anyone. Other dual nand solutions are much cheaper and more user friendlier and also more reliable. I had like 3 demon chips DOA out of around 50. Which is not a very good ratio. What 15432 did was much better, enableing dal nand on ace v2 and ace v3 chips, doing rgh 1.2, all for free basically. While I have to admit and acknowledge tx for what they did in the past it seems to have come to a full stop since 2015 in essence.
It won’t come from the original Team X people as they have ceased to be the website was sold to Max Louarn of divneo paradox maxconsole etc around 18 months ago.
The orignal TX admin Paul Owen is now in America and was involved the rip off deal with Cronusmax. If you want to know more just ask me I know everything
Hey Gary, I doubt you’re ever going to check this again. If I’m not mistaken, you’re Gazza from ChannelTech? I finally got one of these newfangled Xboxs, so I thought I’d check out the state of all this, and was surprised to see your name along with Paul’s here. I remember way back, installing both of your PS2 chips, and him moving on to Enigmah and Xecutor semi-discretely.
Interesting and unexpected trip down memory lane. Hope you’re doing well.

Your blig is motivating me personally, I want to learn to build such website online
Xbox One Slims are encrypted, part of the problem is decryption TX has already bypassed everything else except the M$ wall. Currently the best methods are browser exploits and use of developer mode. What people want is hardware decryption for stuff like jtag, even if that were possible with todays generation of consoles 99% of all consoles would be locked out because of day one updates. It stands to reason you can’t even log into an Xbox One without going through a setup screen, surprise update installed.
