The wiring chart below outlines the connections you need to make to connect your Pi to an xbox console. If your Pi doesn't have the same ground reference as your xbox your results may be sporatic. The ground wire is very important! It acts as a reference line for the Pi to tell when a GPIO is high or low. You will need to connect the two I2C pins on your Raspberry Pi to the I2C pins on your xbox/I2C chip, as well as a ground wire between the two. For xbox versions 1.0 - 1.5 it will require 3 wires to be soldered to the LPC port on your xbox motherboard, for version 1.6 it will require a few more connections that are a bit tricky. Once you have the I2C interface up and running on your Raspberry Pi it's time to get it connected to your xbox console.Adafruit has a very nice tutorial on how to do this. The first step in getting PiPROM running is to enable the I2C interface on your Raspberry Pi.PiPROM is also compatible with all versions of the Raspberry Pi! Getting Started It's great for recovering lost hard drive keys for your xbox, or fixing broken motherboards. Once your pi is connected, PiPROM can easily read, write, or erase the contents of the chip. You can either connect your Raspberry Pi directly to your xbox motherboard, or connect it to an I2C based EEPROM chip that has been removed from an xbox motherboard or other device. PiPROM allows your Raspberry Pi to interface with I2C based xbox EEPROM chips. PiPROM allows you to easily read, write, and erase original Xbox EEPROM chips using a Raspberry Pi! How It Works
