I Bought a BROKEN Xbox One Dev Kit - I Let Out The Magic Smoke! This is the first time I've been able to work on an Xbox One Dev Kit (XDK). Before I even get it open I can hear something rattling around inside. I love being able to take apart something new so I can figure out what's wrong and (hopefully) get it working again.

I love to seeing hardware mods in retail devices. Definitely do that M.2 video
yes
Please!! YES!!
absolutely
Yeah👀👍
"If you wanna see..." YES. The answer is always yes. :D
Lol, noted!
@@Tronicsfix Came here to say this, too! PersonallyI love to see different things.
We're all such nerds for this stuff but it's so fun to learn
Haha, true
Most definitely yes
i liked the slower kind of pace on this video compared to recently, would love to see the m.2 mod you mentioned, cool video subject in general as well
Glad you enjoyed this one!
@@Tronicsfix can you fix my dji air s2 water damage?
@@brokebroke5950 I don't think he is doing repair for people
I definitely want to see if you can put a m.2 in a retail Xbox
I might have to try it out!
@@Tronicsfix please do please I'm begging you
The OneX works well with a regular SATA SSD installed, an m.2 SSD likely wouldn't run noticeably faster.
@@Tronicsfix Please do it I want to see it pretty bad subscribing now dude!
@@Tronicsfix then ?
These videos have become a massive part of my week. Every Friday I finish work early to take my little girl to ballet. She goes off into a separate room and I’m left for 30 minutes to just relax and enjoy some me time……these videos are uploaded at around 4:15 uk time and I’m sat watching by 4:30. Thanks for keeping me entertained in my chill time 🎉
So great to hear. Glad you like them. Thanks for the comment
Same, except I sneakily watch it at work most weeks.
Definitely try that retail mod (and any similar mods you know of). A LOT of folks wonder about that stuff, but we lack the hardware to execute. You've got a boneyard of supplies!
That cracked display would have been really hard to detect before the magic smoke!
Ya, I can see it when I watch the footage back but I never would have noticed it otherwise. It was a very small crack
I would love to see that M.2 video. Now I want to try it myself! Would seem like the hardware portion would be simple - it would be a matter if the software would be set up to recognize the presence. Sounds like a fun experiment!!!
Never would’ve I imagined that fixing electronics would become therapy sessions for me , but from one electronics engineer to another : keep up the great job, as long as you keep uploading I will keep watching.
Xbox Project Scorpio(Xbox One X) Devkit.
There is 1 HDD for Retail and 1 SSD for Build Deployement.
The OneX was supposed to have an M.2 Inside for faster load times but the idea was dropped because of price, that's why there is trace, the PCB of Devkit and Retail is different.
Apparently, someone tried to populate it, but it does nothing, the Software just doesn't care.
The Additionnal Memory is for all the Debugging that happend behind.
Activation works with a Token that is send by Microsoft Server when you connect it to internet, each Devkit has Unique ID, Devkit that are not supposed to be used are Blacklisted.
I don't think it could play Games, even it retail mode, but if it does, you actually have a pretty nice Xbox One X Pro because the Devkit is more powerfull in Raw Power than the One X..
I would love to see you try the M2 mod. It would be wild if it worked...
Hey Steve! I’d love to see a performance comparison between the retail XBOX ONE X and Dev Kit. Seems like this one has a lot more/ better hardware.
A massive yes to wether or not to try putting an m.2 drive on a retail Xbox 1.
The broken OLED can be replaced with any 256x64 OLED that has an Solomon Systech SSD1322-Controller on it. After looking up on google I found the CFAL25664B-Y-B1 but there should be some more that fit. So you could get that work. :)
For sure, i doubt it'll work since it might need an m.2 controller but if you compare and add what's missing I'd love to see that. I'm sure Microsoft wouldn't be happy if it worked lol. Great video as always Steve.
We band together and demand Steve tinker with the boards! This video or we riot!
Im not sure it would, from what happend to linus's kit and the kit on reddit, the second the conslole connects to any network it deactivates the console. Prob a prevention system they implemented
@@rubensantos7925 Also the retail software is probably not using that partition even if the hardware could recognize the SSD.
@@Notharius1 the prices are rediculous! i'm glad i purchased 9tb. it looks like buying that ammount now is a $450 price hike. pretty insane! where's the 4tb microsoft, you promised.
That video was rly RLY interesting! Ty Steve showing us this.!
watching these videos makes me want get into opening and learning how to disassemble and assemble everything back fix hdmi ports
I thoroughly enjoy the one off editions he does.. Probably because I never knew they existed but either way well done :)
Loved the vid!
that cracked and smoked component is called COF (chip on film) that directly connect to the glass on LCD screen with its TCON (timing controller) board, you will need to source the COF flex and attach it with specialized bonding machine, OR replace the whole lcd+COF+TCON assembly (not sure how generic they're)
either way doesn't seem viable to do
great video! keep the good work!
I would be really interested on that m2 slot I love this kind of projects no one has done it before so it would be really interesting and a good idea for a video !!
I would love to see the video in which you try to make the m2 slot work on a normal Xbox, that will be awesome!
10:21 Magic Smoke
Lol, yep
Keep up the great work again :)
As someone who likes taking electronics apart I gotta say watching your videos sure is a delight. Keep up the good work!
4:20, you have to try and solder on that connector now! I wouldn't be surprised if it does work, as long as the board still has traces to the spot
Awesome Devkit
Excellent video! Can you see the SSD in the retail mode? if so try and copy a game from normal HD to SSD, think it may be hidden in normal retail mode?
Very nice work. Sad about that tiny screen tho
I think you can replace the front screen with an oled 20x4 that has got the same "model number" but you will have to take apart the entire front.
Edit: not 20x4 but 256*64
Interesting. I’ll have to check that out
@@Tronicsfix its an ssd1322u you can buy it at aliexpress and other sides
@@hannescampidell yes, I commented it but TH-cam removed it
@@hannescampidell make sure steve see this one, would really like to see that console with that screen
@@ph1l1p69 i hope so
Yes definitely want to see if the m2 will work on retail.
I think that would be very cool to populate the m.2 space on the board if you can get that working that would be phenomenal information
For the retail version yes Many of us would love it. So we can use sata and nvme too.
Oh man, you got me out of my seat with that smoke. I was shouting ‘unplug it, unplug it, unplug it!’
Would LOVE to see if you could add the M.2 connector in a retail Xbox One!
am guessing it disables extra ram on retail mode? repairing display with custom one or any extras that dev kit has is kinda mute because you cant test it.
nice vid
Great! I didn't know this exists. 😆 Thanks!
Definitely do that M.2 video please
The retail M.2 video sounds pretty good
Nice job, well done.
Thanks!
Your channel is a cut gem
An m.2 video on a stock one x would be really cool. Seems like a fun experiment.
This isn't an Xbox One (Durango) devkit, this is a Series X (Scarlett) one. The Xbox One devkit had the ventillation on top and had no front panel LCD / buttons.
you should definitely try to make that connector work on the retail version. That sounds interesting.
YES we would like to see it!!
The M2 thing? Yes please. Also do you think it'll run the games better because it has more ram, or is that extra ram disabled in the retail mode?
Wow, the Xbox One Dev Kit is so cool. Can't you ask maybe MS for a display?
Really interested in the M.2 slot, also is there unpopulated ram chip slots too on the retail unit?
I've tried to populate the SSD, it doesn't work mate
Yep, we want to see it.
Steve got the magic smoke haha! I'd love to see the XBone SSD video, do the thang!
A LOT of magic smoke, lol
I'm interested to see what all could be done with the XDK these days, even well after the release o.o been a big fan of your videos for a long time, keep up the good work :)
That's some crazy magic smoke 🤯
Yes. Want to see you populate an Xbox for an SSD. Want to know if it works lol.
Nice job ❤️
Thanks!
Very nice and strange console, it hurts that the display of the console burned, you will find a spare to see it on. Best regards
Never good when your Xbox rattles! This Xbox Dev is in good hands! Funny it still has the clear plastic protector on the back with everything else all scratched and dirty. Lol
I need to send you my ps5🤣 sony said they cant fix it
Contact me on my website or social media accounts. I might be interested
Yes do the mod video!
Would probably be futile to populate that retail board but would be interesting to watch the attempt anyway Steve.
An M.2 slot transplant video would be interesting, but I can't imagine it wouldn't end in failure since you'd have no way of directing the motherboard to actually use it over the SATA connection; as far as I know, neither the Xbox One nor Xbox Series consoles have been successfully jailbroken in the last ten years (easily accessible devkit mode has removed a lot of the impetus to do so). But maybe I'm overlooking something; still, it'd be a neat idea.
Oh yeah, definitely do a video on trying to 'frankenstein' an m.2 onto a retail Xbox. Would be interesting if it works.
I would suggest trying to get this to boot from the m.2 before trying to mod a retail board. (or at least see if it is available as additional storage)
got me a toolkit, arrived in like 8 hours didn’t expect that.
That’s a fast delivery!
I'd definitely be interested to see if an M.2 SSD could be added to a regular Xbox One X.
Yes please see if you can get that slot working on the retail unit
yes try populating the m.2 connector and the caps and try it out
Please play a game that the retail Xbox Ones struggle with, I really want to see if that extra processing power is being used.
Yeah, do the video where you add an M2 port to the retail One X. We are waiting (but not very) patiently for it.
Agreed I would love to see if it works and xbox just didn't add it to cut costs
" YES. The answer is always yes."
. Definitely do that M.2 video
Yes I do wanna see it
“I let out the magic smoke” has gotta be one of the best titles you’ve ever done 😂😂
Ha, ha, glad you like that one!
Yes , please do the M.2 conversion on a retail unit
Honestly thought that was SFX but seeing it was real smoke was kind of hilarious
Ah the magic blue smoke!
love to see the m.2 mod
That wasn't a devkit drive that you wiped, was it? If so, unfortunate. Always dump the drive before you wipe it.
The devkit activation is done over the network, MSFT verifies you're authorized to use the kit and can disable the dev functions if not. This is what you ran into.
XDK was sold without HDD, by electronics scrapyard (I suppose) - they are (almost) always get drives out of devices (and destroy its).
I would love to see you mod a xbox with a new m.2 connector, You could open the gates to all!
You should have tried installing a game to the SSD, and also try and see what happens if you try a dev mode account on it.
I'd love to see you putting the M.2 on an Xbox.
Yes plzzz I would love a video about the SSD connector on the retail X1
Man. You should definitely try to install a connector for a second ssd on a retail console. Imagine the possibilities if it works. 😮😮😮
Yes I wanna see if you can add a ssd to the xbox one. It would be awsome if it's possible by a connector and some caps.
That was pretty cool, did the extra RAM make anything perform better than normal, and were you able to tell what was on the SSD on the board?
no difference, the extra ram is software locked
Yeeess definitely yes !!!
Edit: Does the SSD appear as a storage to install games? That could give everyone the unknown answer if it will work on retail
Love watching ur vids.
I have a xbox one s that has no power. Doesn't even turn on. ????
Populating the m.2 would definitely be an interesting video IMO
Definitely would wanna see if you could get that ssd port working on a normal xbox.
i would love to see if you can custom that m.2 port thing into action
Yes i would like to see that
It will be great, if You try to run this m.2 on retail xox. Cactus_fabG_retail schematic shows that few more components missing than only m.2 connector: to enable m.2, to enable power for m.2, reset, serial lanes caps (etc) and probably reference clock from U35. You run this devkit in the retail mode so the chance is pretty huge for m.2 in retail console.
Definitely do it 👌
Sir. Sir! Why did you not plug that M.2 into a normal PC and check/ dump it's contents?
The devkit and your ip are registered to microsoft to use the xdk mode. I have actual xbox 360 devkits and the psu on those needs to be pretty beefy too...like REALLY beefy. This is basically a fancy retail xbox now.
Makes sense
I figured someone in the comments would know how the devkit mode works. Sad that there would not be an easy workaround but I get why Microsoft would lock it down like that.
@@ryanb509 after the 360 yep
Yes it will be very interesting to see trying to install an nvme ssd on a retail Xbox one x
Yess good idea
In retail mode will it perform any better playing games with the additional RAM ect. or will it only use what a retail system can use?
No; all games already fit into the "retail" RAM and cannot expect any more. The additional RAM can be portioned by developers between adding extra RAM to the title (game) when debugging (so e.g. you can load in debug graphics that won't be there normally) or "tool memory" for the development tools for e.g. framerate profiling.
Yes we need to know if ssds can be out on the board diy
Can you use the ssd? And will double the amount of ram be helpfull?
