More trident reviews from:
EURASIA.NU ENGLISH
360-GR.COM GREEK
Finally, a clarification on SLIM 14719 dashboard support.
You DO NOT need to update your Matrix Glitcher
Firmware to enable glitching of 14719 dashboard, all you need to do is to reflash
your NAND after having patched it with the new build.py file available HERE or from our DOWNLOAD
section.
Hopefully this will clarify the many doubts people
was having till now :)
Happy hacking!

MATRIX TRIDENT diagram error for
generic Glitcher devices.
Unfortunately due to an error, the diagram to install the TRIDENT for
generic Glitcher devices is wrong.
Installing the TRIDENT according the faulty diagram will not make the
glitch chip work correctly.
The revised diagram is available into the new release of the
installation tutorial:
"Matrix Trident HW Installation
Tutorial v1.1.pdf"

MATRIX TRIDENT manual and other
news.
We have released the MATRIX TRIDENT (PSI) installation
and instruction manual. Also available is the diagram to use the MATRIX
TRIDENT with any other glitch device available on the market.
You can get both from our DOWNLOAD section. (EDIT:
Fixed the installation manual download link, sorry about that guys ! :-) )
We are completing also a software to enable
the easy management of bad blocks when dumping the NAND and rewriting it to
the MATRIX TRIDENT. This software will handle all the work in case your NAND has bad blocks tht
need to be reallocated.
We also would like to inform everyone that the tests to restore
glitch features to SLIM and FAT consoles that have been updated with the
14717/14719 update are proceeding at fast peace.
More tests are required to ensure that every bug has been ironed out,
but we will have soon good news for owners of Glitch devices.

Announcing the MATRIX TRIDENT.
We are proud to announce the MATRIX TRIDENT (PSI), the first TRIPLE
NAND solution available for Xbox360.
The TRIDENT will transform your Xbox360 16 MB NAND in 3 independent
16 MB banks that can be read and write with any available SPI reader/writer
solution using software tools like Nandpro 2.0
and Nandpro 3.0.
The trident can work together with
any Glitcher solution present in the market.
A flat cable is supplied to directly connect it to the Matrix GLitcher II, for enhanced performances.
It features a quick solder board solution for the Trinity slim and an
external switch with led indicators to quickly choose which one of the
THREE banks of NAND to use.
With the Matrix Trident you can assign one bank to the Original NAND,
the second bank to boot a modified dashboard and the third NAND bank to
boot Xell or a second dashboard.
Whether you use it for fun or for hacking purposes, the Trident is
going to be the tool of choice to add extra NAND capacity to your Xbox360.
 
 
FEATURES:

solution to re-enable RGH and Trident Style additional NAND on Fat consoles
is under advanced development.

Announcing the Matrix Glitcher II
We are proud to announce the availability of the Matrix Glitcher II.
Thanks to the hundreds of feedbacks we received from our distributors
and testers around the world, we decided to release an updated version of
the Matrix Glitcher.
Some of the new features
include:
·
Preprogrammed
with a brand new and advanced Matrix Glitching
code.
·
Compatible with
all Xbox360 SLIM and FAT models (except Corona and Xenon motherboard)
·
On board switch
to quickly select console type and model.
·
Future-proof
updateable with external USB programmer (not included).
·
After-installation
fine tuning of glitch timings to better fit each different console
(external USB programmer needed)
·
Unique Serial
code identification for each Glitcher II
verifiable online.
By connecting the GLitcher II to a PC (using the same external programmer
as the one used in the Matrix Freedom PCB), the installer will be able to
cycle through 7 different timings for each console models of the Fat
Xbox360 and 3 different timings settings for the Slim Xbox360.
This will allow the installers to
fine tune the Glitcher II to the best available
settings for each console.
More features will be given with
future software releases, to enable an even more deep interaction of the
Matrix Glitcher II with your Xbox360.
 
Goods are in stock and already shipping to our
official resellers. You can find the nearest one to you on our Resellers page.
 
Installation Diagrams are already available here. A small tutorial on the use of the
External Programmer to connect the Matrix Glitcher
II to the PC and how to use the “Fine Tuning” feature will be available

Hope you all will enjoy this new product as much
as we enjoyed developing it.

Matrix Glitcher
boot times on Slim Xbox360.
A very
smart guy who goes by the nick “ameel” discovered
an interesting and unusual solution to the unreliable boot times problem that all current glitching
solutions suffer from on slim Xbox 360s.
The problem
with glitching slim consoles resides in the need
to send a glitch signal with some very precise parameters that are hard to
control on the simple XC2C64A cpld, especially
due to the higher clock frequency and the currently used injection point.
Increasing the wire length "fixes" this problem probably due to
the added distortion, ringing, etc. that is added to the glitching signal. This will have to be analyzed in more
details with the right equipment.
For the moment being, what's important is that it's a possible fix that
many people seems to be very happy with, so we give our warm
congratulations to “ameel” for this ingenuous
solution!
Original thread available here:
http://www.xboxhacker.org/index.php?topic=17213.0
For everyone installing a Matrix Glicher in
a Slim Xbox360, simply make the wire for PAD A of a length of between 25-30
cm.
Everything else is unchanged.

Matrix Glitcher
copies issues.
We are receiving tons of e-Mail complaining about the presence of
Matrix Glitcher copies present in the market.
Many of these copies are even made with re-marked Xilinx parts.
Unfortunately there is nothing we can really do at the moment except to
help you to identify the copies.
What you CAN do, to be sure to purchase an original product, is to
purchase only from our official reseller list and
to avoid websites like Rambogames and Dealextreme that are offering cheap imitations.
We do stand 100% behind the quality of our products, and we do take
full responsibility and offer a full exchange program for any faulty piece,
but we cannot take responsibility for the issues with the copies.

Want to know how quick the Matrix Glitcher is?
Some people wrote to us asking how quick the Matrix Glitcher is in booting Xell.
Here is a video we found on the web. We believe that a third party
test done by a professional installer is worth more than a thousand words
we could wrote: Matrix Glitcher
Test (Alternate link)
Have fun! :)

We are back.
After several years since we gave our last contribution
to the scene we decided that it was time to come back as we think that
there is still lot of work to be done to bring innovation and quality in
the console market.
After all we do still love this
job too much : ).
A big difference from the past will be that we are
not going to focus anymore on a single console, but we are going to spread
our product line across all the consoles available on the market.
Our first product is going to be based on the GliGli hack. Maybe many do not fully realize it, but
this guy made a hell of an Engineering work to get to that result and I
personally want to congratulate him for having found something that is
worth to be called an “Hack” !
To celebrate him and our comeback we decided to
call this first new product “The Matrix Glitcher”.
If you are asking yourself why, you should
remember “The Matrix” movie:
Trinity: A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the
Matrix. It happens when they change something.
So, are you ready for the change?
