Ok so this is what I did:

1. DUmbed the nand (got 1 bad nand block error but it was same like the 10 times I tried it).

2. Created the ecc file using Multibuilder 0.3. It was successful

3. Flashed the ecc file to the box and that was successful too. (I even tried making the ecc again with pig's software and flashed that too)

4. Programmed the CL too. (again a success)

5. Installed the CL.

6. Even the green light comes on and blinks every 4-5 seconds. (red light stays on)

7. BUT NOTHING ON THE TV. I tried using composite, componenet, AND HDMI but nothing on the tv.

Here are the pics and the video.

Try programing coolrunner with jtag tool and use jtag tool through the process, i have a trinity board too and boots fine. I used jtag tool to make ecc file, program coolrunner writing ecc and freeboot all worked first time. Failing that double check solder points. But dont change anything while using jtag tool, follow it step by step

Not yet. Isn't that while/after making the freeboot image?

I am still trying to get the cpu key

WOW
It works now.

HOW? - My component/composite is on input 2. I changed it to input 1 and then changed it to input 2 and it worked. If I keep it at input 2 it doesn't but if I change it to input 2 after booting the xbox, it does.

I would double check the soldering on the Quick solder board.
Hard to tell from the picture, but the solders look a little iffy.
The solders don't look like they attached to the Mobo.
