Custom SXOS CFW


First of all, I want to thank @Reacher17 to making this possible and everyone who worked on it.
I share with you my Custom theme to use with your "Free SXOS" or "Original SXOS", yes you can patch your proper boot.dat to use with your own licence if you don't use the Free one used by everyone.

Free Licence
XCI loader
4th icones to launch Atmosphere on SX Menu (optional)
Custom Splash Screen
Custom Menu SX

4th icones to launch Atmosphere on SX Menu (optional)
Custom Splash Screen
Custom Menu SX

Here is the tutorial on how to applied my theme or if you want create your own theme or splash screen :

  • Download one of my theme you want
  • Extract my theme on your PC
  • Now you have 2 choise :
    • Free Licence :
      • First you need is to downlaod SXOS_beta_v3.1.0
      • Unzip the boot.dat file and put it on the same folder of my theme
      • If you don't need the 4th icone for Atmosphere, juste delete holder.bmp file on themes folder
        • If you use Atmosphere, rename fusee-primary.bin to boot.bin and put it on root of sd card
      • Rename the boot.dat on boot.dat.orig and launch Hacked-License-menu_sxos.py
      • you will have a boot.dat and a licence.dat created on this folder, put theme on root of your SD card
      • Launch payload.bin with TegraRcmGUI and enjoy your Free hacked SXOS licence
    • Original Licence :
      • Put your original boot.dat on theme folder
      • If you don't need the 4th icone for Atmosphere, juste delete holder.bmp file on themes folder
        • If you use Atmosphere, rename fusee-primary.bin to boot.bin and put it on root of sd card
      • Rename the boot.dat on boot.dat.orig and launch Original-License-menu_sxos.py
      • you will have a boot.dat and a licence.dat created on this folder, put theme on root of your SD card

You need a boot.bin on root of your SD cars, i forgot to mention it, sorry for the mistake :(

Quick question though. Does this support firmware 12 or just up to 11
Only 11 for now :(

Amazing work finally got everything working after days trying to figure it out cause I was missing pycryptodome and it was installing but for some reason the scripts kept on saying it wasn't so ending up doing in a my daughters old laptop and it fully worked love the work being done for hacked sxos and I don't know why it seem to be working better then normally cause sxos original used to crash alot with me but know it doesn't

No, it can run but only on 11.0.1, 12.x are impossible
SX OS boots because the BCPKG2 partition is on FW 11.0.0. Otherwise SX OS would end up in a black screen. SYSTEM partition is on 11.0.1. That's why it shows FW 11.0.1 in the OS. But it doesn't change the fact that it is still on 11.0.0. And furthermore, this spoofing is only for the license. Not for compatibility for 11.0.0+ ;)
So...nice fake.

After research more on this, you are fine. only spoof the version but isn't a true 11.0.1, I don't have SX OS so I can't try, just I see it on YouTube, but yes, it's a fake 11.0.1

I have a source and it works with 11.01 only
You don't have anything. Your source's BCPKG2 partition is on FW 11.0.0 and the SYSTEM Partition is supposedly on 11.0.1. The os shows you 11.0.1 but it isn't on 11.0.1. How should that work? SX OS is closed source/proprietary. This spoofing is for the license. Not for higher firmware versions. Why doesn't anyone get that?

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a patched ROM
