Hello guys, I have a corona v3 here that will not boot xell. Getting the glitch light every 5 seconds but just glitches endlessly. Have tried normal and magic ecc/smc files as well as dips 1-8 2-8 3-8 etc and every one was tried with all three post bit number settings. Really confused right now :/ also the switch is set to SLIM. All wires cut as short as they could be and still reach. Pictures will be below. Sorry about the iPhone quality pics, and the orange stuff is no-clean flux btw and it will be cleaned when installation is done and working :D

Thanks :)

Try a capacitor wit recommended settings and if it don't work move post bit and try again then again then put it back and try a different dip setting.
Doesn't look like no clean flux to me. Looks like doodoo.

Yeah logs are needed if asking for help I'm just saying doesn't look bad to me hardware wise. it just keeps glitching because it may need different tuning. as long as he clicked rgh2 and cr4 and used a good nand, then it is probably not a jrunner problem which is why I said to try different settings with caps. :smile:

Console Type: corona v3
Programmer Used: NAND-X
NAND Size: 16
Dashboard version: e.g 2.0.16767
CB Version: e.g 5771
Screenshot of NAND details from J-Runner: (attach an image to your post)
J-Runner log
updflash.bin log (if applicable)
Image of the CR4 XL
Images of close-up soldering to motherboard (attach images to your post)
Detailed Description of the Problem
Was the console working before you started: Y
Do you get a green debug light appear on the CR4 XL chip every 4-5 seconds: Y


Unfortunately I don't have my j-runner logs. I read the nand twice with no bad blocks, then selected glitch2 and ticked the cr4 box, then I click create ecc and then flashed it. In reply to ablegepu I have tried every single dip and postbit combo, obviously leaving dip 8 on.
