Old school back with a 360 slim. Lost touch with mods and flash need help

[The End of A Heartache]

Dont bother buying a NANDx they are outdated, JRPv2 does everything it does and more

uninstall the drivers you have now, follow the instructions here http://team-xecuter.com/forums/showthread.php/85709-New-Xecuter-NAND-X-amp-J-R-Programmer-Drivers and you should have no problems

these are the drivers from TX https://mega.co.nz/#!bwZVjQpC!K9XNvEqqQnyRyzUbz57JS3JQTfVkbz0Cxr61ibSsxT0

Thank you but no change. I did as the site said and deleted the PTL file from system32 and WOW64 after uninstalling and deleting software.

Window did pick up on the hardware and retried to install driver, I then choose the TX file I downloaded from the link you gave me and retried Jrunner

It still will not pick up on the hardware. Though Now WINDOWs does make the connect/disconnect USB sound but NO device is shown even if it shows JRP is connected and drive is shown in device manager.

Do you guys think the jrp is bad?

[The End of A Heartache]

I want to make sure I have everything connect properly

I feel like I need to make sure I am not being an idiot and forgetting something

So I just have the NANDx cable connected to the CR and JRP



I am not sure but something is telling me I should be also using this?


So I read through some of the xecuter forum and found a few with the same weird problem that I am having. Though the same basic solution keeps appearing to reinstall driver with no luck of fixing the issue.

One has even installed window 7 x86 and dual boot with window xp with no fix to the issue.

I don't know guys :/ find of losing hope here not sure what the heck is going on at all with my jrp but the same people who have the same issue even xecuter can not find an answer.

the wire you have connected to the jrp and the cool runner is correct for programming the coolrunner   , make sure the console is off. and the  coolrunner is on slim and  prog.  and then hook the usb up to the pc and you should be able to program the coolrunner.  Make sure that the console is unplugged. from the power brick. you do not want any power to the coolrunner from the xbox.

Trust me Its been unplug. I don't have anything connected to the motherboard other then the jrp to the CR. I set the CR to Prog. and its on slim.

Still I get nothing through Jrunner

I read if you flash the jrp with an old firmware (1.04) that it should work.. Not sure if I should try

[Rodent]

 what firmware are you on know on the jrp?  should work for you , i wont be home till later so I will get with you as soon as i can on skype to help.

I am on the latest firmware 1.05 and I have skype on always logged in. I crash around 12am eastern time but can always stay up to get this working again

I'll flash firmware and downgrade to 1.04 then try again in a few

[Gizmo613]

I Wouldnt Do That But Its Your Stuff. If It Works Then That's Good.

[Rodent]

Ok we figured out the issue he is having, His JRP is working fine, the problem is it will not detect the REV C coolrunner while trying to program the coolrunner.

[Gizmo613]

should check to see if the pins are bent on the jr programmer where you would plug in the cable. i would also desolder all the wires and then try to program the coolrunner.

we checked the pins  they are good. next step  is I am going to send him a nand x and jtag cable to try it if we cant get it to work after he desolders it.

[The End of A Heartache]

Thank you rodent, We have tried it all and for strange reasons still will not detect through jrunner.


I have sent you a PM with my address rodent

Let see if NANDx will take care of the random issue and will let me flash CR. 

If not then it might be the CR that causing the dilemma.

Anyways that it for now I'll keep things posted as it comes

in the meantime more work will be done on my mod.   

[The End of A Heartache]

So I am back thanks go a great dood Rodent I got the NANDx today in the mail trust me I was excited 

With rodent on skype we went down the list of things to make sure everything will work out fine.


So first thing first setting up the NANDx on my desktop. Well I was having issue loading the driver. The system kept telling me "driver is not intended for this platform" So Rodent and I went ahead and did some basic troubleshooting with driver. After a Uninstall of driver with software and reinstall of drive I still kept getting the same message. After a while me and Rodent agree that I must restart the computer. So went ahead and did so after the restart I loaded device manager and reconnected the NANDx which kept telling me code: 18 "driver is not intended for this platform" Quickly doing a quick search I found that I had to go to my system32 folder and locate the PTLUSB0.SYS file and Rename it .sys.old then reinstall drive which I have and it did the trick

Now that NANDx was loaded properly


So now then, after a first try I get the same "device not found" respond back so Rodent directed me to try the RGH2.

Basicly un jump section 1 and switch 3 and 2 to 2 and 1


Another atempt


Loading NANDx to Jrunner


Selecting RGX corona_C as stated by Gizmo some post back (Thank you buddy)


Well still bad news..... Looks like in either case the CR is the issue after using Rodent NANDx and going through jumper setting


Seems that I will need to buy another CR and before installing flash it then instal.

BUT I will have to put the hack on hold while I gather money. Been a slow month of may and starting june 1 its going to be a very wet one hurricane season starts up again.

I would like to express my thanks to Rodent for lending me his NANDx and helping me through Skype really thank you man you are awesome

Gizmo thank you for running me down the price list and helping me on this post also awesome.

Thanks to phantomz0 for his Link for the JrP driver off xecuter forum.

Thank you guys really awesome  full of knowledge and I couldn't get this far without you

I know I know Vision I need to order parts. First selling somethings off trying to get some cash then I can buy my parts. It's a small set back

[Rodent]

I found another coolrunner. I will try to get it shipped out today for you to help you along. 

[ViSioNXx]

Ole helpful rodent!!

[The End of A Heartache]

I found another coolrunner. I will try to get it shipped out today for you to help you along. 

Yes! Rodent you are a savior haha     

thank you Rodent I received the tool today in the mail




So I went ahead and setup rodent the NANDx and CR, as directed by Rodent via skype before I install I need to flash. Well I went ahead and tried to do that after having everything set up and choosing from the RGX corona_c as Gizmo said to use in post back. Clicked "OK" and wouldn't you know, still have the same problem "Device not found" So I left Rodent a PM and thought for awhile. What if I was right and it was my PC...

So i grabbed everything including my Jr Programmer and a copy of Jrunner without my .bin file Went and set up everything at my dad computer. Installed driver for JrP and thought man if this doesn't work I will shoot myself (not really)

After the setup I loaded Jrunner (under admin of course) and crossed my finger.


It was a success! 


I went and chose 2-3 since I have jumper open on section 1 on the cr and jumper from 2-3 to 2-1


So now the only thing left to do is write the .ecc and then see how it boots to get the key


Seriously thank you Rodent and Gizmo for your entire help

Also thank you Vision

you guys are awesome

  cheers have a drink on me (I am sober)

[The End of A Heartache]

So writing the .ecc was direct



So that was quick honestly lol

I guess last thing is to set up the area and start the xell

Now ummm O.o what do I need to do on the board? lol do I have to desolder the coolrunner before I turn it on.

[The End of A Heartache]

For Gizmo I am sorry :/ this is as good as I can get close range.

When I tried to boot to xell this is what I get, 1 strong RED led then 11 red faded flash in a repeat pattern.


the E,F and 3V3


Better look including the bridge to have the E,F


Underside


The oscillator Cermaic

Not sure if this will help.. I am sorry :/ this is as best as I can get.

[Gizmo613]

Make The Wires For E And Fthe Same Length Amd As Short As You Can. Also I Dont See The Point B Being Connected To The Oscillator. Let Me Know How It Goes.

edit: yes you need jrunner to for the network xell boot. the xbox needs to be connected with an ethernet cord to your router. with jrunner running and the console attemtping to boot you will have to hit the scan ip button. this will read the xbox and xell ip address and then give you the cpu key and dvd key.

also you might have to shorten the blue cpu wire, there is an alternate point on top of the motherboard. im at school so i wont be able to look it up for you.

[Modded Matt]

His B goes directly to ground...

[Gizmo613]

the crystal oscillator points should be 1 &4 are power, 2 is ground and 3 goes to point b on the coolrunner.

you do have a 48mhz crystal  yes?

[The End of A Heartache]

His B goes directly to ground...

Pin 3 on the Oscillator goes to B on the CR

Okie I am going to shorten the line for E&F and I heard that if we shorten the line to the underside to 10 cm it responds better. I'll take pictures and post them. I will also check B on the CR and see if my line has broken off. In either case I'll rewire it using the wire use for the phat xbox 360 which came with my CR.

Thank you gizmo I will also run Jrunner and try again

So I went ahead and shorten the wire length

The first image is to show you that I color coded the Oscillator, yellow power (3v3), Green ground, Blue B. I had pin2 to B and pin3 to ground. I had them backwards lol


I used the ruler seen to messure out and cut 10cm for the underside which goes to D


And the rest of the line were shorter to reach the CR.


Thank you gizmo I am going to set up and slide the heatsink back.

Unfortunately in a bit of a frustration I bent and threw the x-clamp away. Do not worry I have the x-clamp fix screw and washer. I need to grind a set because of the post_out board the washer will not fit. I'll post picture later.

[The End of A Heartache]

Well a quick update for now,

Since I bent the hell out of the xclamp and threw it away I went for my xbox 360 RroD fix and pulled out my machine thread screw and washer.


One of the main issue with the fix is the post_out wouldn't let the washer fit right.


A quick fix is to grind down the washer side



Easy fix



I quickly checked over the board and started to test it out. I setup my computer one more time and ran Jrunner and did a network check


I notice that the green LED would stay on for 3 second then shut off and remain off for 5 second and turned back on for 3 seconds in a repeat pattern. I am guessing I need to reflash the CR. Going to set up the NANDx and try RGH2 with RGX and recommended Gizmo cor_C

More update later

[ViSioNXx]

Sounds like it was trying to glitch. did you try turning it on with the open tray button? that is how mine loads xell... I may be wrong but thats my 2c

[The End of A Heartache]

I am going to try that now thanks vision for the idea. I'll let you know if anything happens. No I get the same this time the GREEN LED stays on for 4 seconds then shut off for 10 seconds and turns back on for 4 seconds and off 10 seconds in a cycling pattern.

Gonna have to reflash

[Gizmo613]

That Means Its Glitching. And Yes You Can Use The Eject Button For Xell. Also Do You Hear A High PitCh Noise Coming From The Crystal Oscillator? You Should.

[ViSioNXx]

Cool. I thought that was right.. I almost didn't post in fear of being wrong. Hope this will be wrapping up the saga soon!!!

[Gizmo613]

You Can Turn Xell On With The Power Button As Well, As Long As Its Only The Ecc Thats Been Written. If You Write A Hack Image Then It Will Only Turn With Eject Or Whatever Button Its Programed To.

[ViSioNXx]

Oh Ok. cool. Like I said, I just wanted to offer what little bit of info I could. The osc isnt squeling for him though...
