Hi guys! Humbly appealing to anyone with a success story with a Slim Corona V4 with Hynix chip pls do share some tips on how to glitch properly this console as I'm already and totally out of idea on why can't i glitched this xbox. Followed TX tutorials to the letter and official diagram as well were followed. Don't know i'f I'm still missing anything so pls pardon me for my ignorance as this is my first V4 setup. I'm using DGX 1.0s. btw, here's the procedure I've already done:

1. Dumped the nand 6 times with a homemade SD card reader and fortunately matched according to j-runner (removed resonator's ground and bridged R2C6 and R2C7 permanently to send signal to E and F e and f (i2c_sda and i2c_sdl) R2C10 has on-board resistor ao i ignored it.

2. Flashed DGX.ecc alt file and installed DGX and postfix adapter for c: post_out (dgx dip #8 on)

3. Used stock wirings for DGX except for C: post_out and D: cpu_rst. Tried 8-12cm cpu and 10cm post. Also tried 50-70cm post and 10-12cm cpu.

4 . Used TX nand-x update cable for monitoring com spliced (no qsb) and installed drivers for the update cable. Also using ethernet cable connected to my router just like my old setup so scan ip range once xell is booted

5 Used alt cpu_rst FT3T10 still no joy!

Issues/questions

1. DGX greeen light blinking for a couple of minutes with an interval of 9-10sec and then suddenly stop and wont display xell. Sometimes it blinks endlessly like for 30-45mins. either from my tv, com monitor and can't be seen as well on my router. Is this normal?

2. ROL not blinking and just giving a SOLID green light. Is this normal for a corona v4? I just happened to glitched a trinity and observed its behavior prior to this corona and as per my observation Trinity always blinks specially w/out the dvd drive connected.

3. Does different kind and thickness of wires will help solve the problem btw? If yes what's the recommended wire to use for both cpu and post? Again, sorry for my too many

A picture of my setup:

And the alt cpu_rst i tried:

Note: already removed FT310 point and now back to C5R11 using a thinner wire.

Any help will be highly appreciated! Thanks TX!!

"DGX greeen light blinking for a couple of minutes with an interval of 9-10sec and then suddenly stop and wont display xell." Does the ROL light blink once after the DGX stops blinking? If so, you've booted Xell and the issue lies with your COMMS cable.

Also, ROL light not blinking on a Corona is normal, they changed something and it no longer blinks with the DVD drive completely absent. You'll just get that one single blink when Xell loads.

Edit: Use regular wire for post_out, not that thick/shielded whatever it is. If you want a long wire, use the blue CPU_RST from the DGX. If you want a short wire, use the yellow post_out wire. Take the red wire you're using for CPU_RST, solder it to R4P5, switch to the yellow post_out wire on PostOut1 on the postfix board, and see what happens, I get mine booting in under a minute with that setup usually. I've done quite a few V4s too..

@ LoneWolf913, thanks for clearing that out. Haven't observed if it blinks before it stops though. I'll go and check then. Btw, it it indeed booted xell and does not show on the terminal emulator (monitor com) does it also affects xell ip showing on the router? My COMMS cable is connected to J2C3: 2 TX (yellow) 1 RX (blue) GND 12 (black) Btw, already used my COMMS cable for my previous consoles both phat and slims and it does display the xell properly. Does the Monitor COM of j-runner configured to be used for all type of boards regardless of version? I'm thinking of lowering the Baud Rate. Nothing... just a thought. Can somebody confirm?

Just retrieved the keys from a Corona v4 with a DGX 1.0.

I used a 10 cm blue CPU_RST wire connected to FT3T10 - all the other wires were stock (default color). Got the keys from a COMM cable within a minute.
