Cygnos360 V2.0 is an add-on PCB that allows you to have more than one kernel version on your xbox 360. Simply install Cygnos360 V2.0 on your Xbox360 mainboard and connect it via USB to your PC. Cygnos360 enables you to conveniently switch between two kernel versions. At the moment, you can have a "JTAG HACK kernel" on one NAND and on the other you can have a 7xxx dashboard. (DONT update to 85xx!) You can also, after obtaining your CPU key use Cygnos360 V2 to switch between PAL and NTSC kernels. This is now also possible on HDMI consoles that have not been updated to 85xx kernel versions!
NOTE: Cygnos360 does not contain any kernel image! It is shipped empty! Cygnos360 does NOT enable "backups" it is NOT for the DVD drive.

Feature summary
Some features of the new Cygnos360 V2.0
- run homebrew kernels! NOW THE EXPLOIT ALSO WORKS ON HDMI CONSOLES!
- "JTAG hack" is integrated into the Cygnos360 V2 firmware
- switch between the kernel on your Xbox360 and the kernel on Cygnos360 V2 (for example for region-code switching or switching to homebrew/exploitable kernel)
- no lifting of CE-pin or cutting of traces neccessary
- protect your data by storing offline information on the Cygnos360 V2 NAND-flash and avoid banning (dirty-NAND concept)
- directly downgrade on the Cygnos360 V2 NAND-flash (THIS IS NOT NECESSARY ANYMORE)
- easy quicksolder installation of Cygnos360 V2
- Cygnos360 V2 firmware can be up- und downgraded to any version in the field
- built from high quality components
- easy to use
- a reliable solution
- run Linux and homebrew
- read and flash your Xbox360 and Cygnos360 V2 NAND-flash in less than one minute
- Infectus is no longer needed for any of the functions
In the Xbox 360, on-board NAND-flash memory stores important data like the hypervisor, kernel, and key vault.
Through installation of Cygnos 360, the onboard NAND-flash memory is complemented with another NAND-flash memory contained on the Cygnos 360 printed-circuit board. Being able to choose between both NAND-flash memories opens up a variety of new fascinating possibilities. The following list tries to give you an impression about what can be done with Cygnos 360:
- choose between a kernel for playing games or a vulnerable kernel for running Linux / homebrew
- play imported games or movies by switching your region code
- run homebrew via the JTAG hack
