  • So I think am not eligible for this awesome Giveaway. And I also hope more such Giveaways come by.

    I never had a Hardware gadgets to mod and thinker about. Here in India I couldn't afford one of those awesome gadgets they costed a lot.

    But more than Hardware Mods I do something called software tweaking. I call myself as a Junior Software Engineer (JUST FUN). I do a lot of experiments with my PC (My World). Some of my small projects were -

    - PacMan (Not just a PacMan but a Multiplayer PacMan using JS)

    - Tweaked a PS3 OS for Overclocking the hardware. One of my friends helped he in adding the water cooling.

    - DevNetHost (A simple software for quickly forwarding ports and also creating micro sites for short term use)

    - A basic LFS image (Linux From Scratch)

    - I often do help some small businesses in my locality put up Google Business.

    My Current Projects

    - R4R (Resource for Resource)

    - XeonAJ-OS (I call it my super intelligent OS)

     

    My XBOX Idea -

    Not really Great but I think it would work right.

    IDEA 1) Me and friends are already thinking to alter the Xbox OS. This OS is almost made like our beloved Windows 10 OS but with a lot of secure enhancement. So we just found some ways to edit the OS image in a emulated environment and reload it back to Xbox One. We aren't sure if this is ever gonna be a success as we have never been exposed to Xbox console's other than a PS3 used some years back. If we win this giveaway this will be our first ever Xbox OS MOD. Xbox One SDK are leaked so modding there software should be a easy start. (From https://www.se7ensins.com/forums/forums/xbox-one-modding.463/ )

    IDEA 2) Well on the hardware side. I love RGBs so adding some RGB extending the power from a internal power supply and connecting it to a Rpi0 for contol which would sync with my Windows PC Gaming theme. Maybe add Another Rpi0 for controlling the power and another wireless controller connected to some more USB connection. And changing the internal HDD to SSD (LATER).

    So what happens is I simple connect Xbox One S to a display do some manual settings then remove the display and just keep the xbox powered.

    And when I need to play some games I can simple send a command to the Rpi0 which will turn on the Xbox and another command to start controlling the Xbox from my PC and another command to start playing a game from xbox on my PC. This is way cool.

    Am sorry I have done a really small Hardware mod with my laptop on which I play Games. My laptop often gets super hot during gaming sessions. I just added a external CPU fan taken from a old desktop. i had also added a extra WiFi card for wireless pen testing.

    I had detached the parts from my PC during holiday break out!

    Software is normally pretty integral to most mods, especially if you are adding an MCU to add features, or in this case trying to mod a system tied to a hardware configuration. Don't be shy of your hardware mod, no one's first build was a beautiful expensive bit of kit with a load of polish!
