RGH Bad block was realised after xell not booting

[mafei3033237]

hi there I m here asking for help please!

I glitched my slim console using coolrunner, everything is fine (I ve done several console before) , til I tried to boot into xell to read cpukey, it wont boot, red light on coolrunner is on, green light blink regularly, I tried to re-sodering all the points, and end up same. After 1 hour thinking, I went back to the dos window, and realised 2 bad block was found out there in nand extract stage. Its extracted twice and ended up with same result as below:

error: 250 reading block 2A9
error: 250 reading block 395

I didnt realised them before moving onto next stage, tile I coundnt boot into xell.

I ve read some artile and analised the bad blocks with 360 flash dump tools, it gives follows information:

Then I read martin c s article about how to remap the bad blocks, but I cant clearly understand all the process. And some of them seems not right in my understanding

click here for the article


I have checked lots articles and finally come out this follwing command, if anyone good on this please check it for me please.
1. I need to find the data mis-placed on found location
nandpro nanddump.bin: -r16 395.bin 3FE 1
nandpro nanddump.bin: -r16 2A9.bin 3FF 1
then I got 395.bin and 2A9.bin
2.For mis-placed data need to be placed back to original position
nandpro nanddump.bin: +w16 395.bin 395 1
nandpro nanddump.bin: +w16 2A9.bin 2A9 1
Now the nanddump.bin with bad block should be fixed, and I can use it to creat image_00000000.ecc file and write back to mother board.
Am I right? If anything wrong please correct me.
thanks heaps!

:facepalm:Very sad, using above command, I "fixed" nanddump.bin and created image_00000000.ecc, its not working when I re-flash it into nand.

thats all unneccicary......

If you are unfortunate enough to have a bad block in the first 50 blocks (where the ecc file goes), you'll find it hard to get the CPU key. Ironically, once you have the CPU key, Multi_builder will happily remap the block for you. Before you get there, you'll need to do it manually:

2A9 and395 are not in the first 50 blocks and u wouldn't have to do that. I honestly would check soldering

but the read light is on and green light is blink, its all seems all right , call me a noob, why do you say 2A9 and 395 are not first 50 blocks? whats the first 50 blocks look like?

first fifty blocks only goes to 0x4f how long have you let it sit slims can take some time is your blue wire coiled up?

Let it sit for 10 minutes if it doesn't go check your soldering. Try it in phat mode as well

hi there now I m really confused, in your saying the first 50 blocks will be
0X001
0X002
0X003
...........
0X050

and they are going to 0X4F?

If I got bad block on lets say: 0X0395, does it mean the block 395 is bad? which is out of range 1-50, so it wont effect xell booting?

the other thing I m confused here is:

how to understand information below:

The block ID 0x0046 found @ 03FF

can I understand as : block 46 is bad and the inforamation can be found on block 03FF?

whats the relationship between 0X0046 and 03FF in this case?

The ONLY real time you would have to remap as said would be if it was in the first 50 blocks other than that proper apps handle it and no need to touch in this case your nand doesnt need remapping check your soldering and check if switch is in NOR....

Jesus christ

I try to understand martins article but I couldnt at some points.

its said in step 2 :

Write the ecc file to your NAND as per normal, you will get an error writing to one of the block.

I ve been reading this over 50 times, I couldnt figure out whats the ecc file he mentioned, as I only dumped nanddump.bin so far with bad blocks , does he mean I ll just keep moving to create image_00000000 using multi builder 0.7 and write into the NAND on the motherboard?

also in step 3:

run NANDpro to inject the ecc file onto your VNAND


where is the ecc file come from?
whats the VNAND?


I have no experience on JATG before, only started from coolrunner gitched hack, but I m very keen to learn, can anyone explain please?

I ll be very appricated!!

That doesn't affect you so don't worry about it. The blocks are automatically remapped.

BAD DAY AHH?

Hi there

thanks for you to provide me the basic information of block , I ll go through it first before do any questions.

thanks heaps!!

 

[DayvG]

Welcome buddy, just do lots of research and start over, check soldering etc

Hi there

sorry to bother you again

Information Below:

The block ID 0x0046 found @ 03FF

is from other console I m doing, so this one will be a problem right? or just like what you say: that dosent affect me. But its within first fifty blocks

I havent tried to move onto next stage, do I need to move on and see whats going on or I just correct it straightway?

 

[DayvG]

Use Martins guide to remap that block and you'll be good to go.

why wasn't this shown in the SN's you posted? how many original dumps do you have?

It is better to start another topic for that. Or like more guys telling you. Do it like Martin's Tut.

or if he uses jtag tool or xnand healer it would only take like 5 secs. using the remap bad blocks function instead of using the cmd
