Has anyone had a Corona V4 stop glitching after 5 attempts? (using a CR3 lite + postout fix adapter). For some reason this Corona will never attempt to glitch past 5 cycles, but even then it will successfully boot 80% of the time before the fifth cycle. When it does stop glitching, the front LED light will remain on and the console won't turn off without pulling the power cord. I'm not too concerned since the console boots most of the time (spent hours tweaking before it would always fail to glitch after 5 attempts), but was wondering if anyone else had these symptoms and found a way to resolve the issue.

soldering pics please.

have you tried writing back og nand and booting with cr set to prg?

there's a lot of possibilities. leave it on when it does glitch, see if it rrods after a while of play.

Knew someone was going to ask. See kids, this is why you document your exploits in modding. Someone's going to ask a question and you go "Hey, I had that exact same problem. Wait, I don't remember exactly how I solved it though. Doh!"

Basically that means it was 4am in the morning when I got it to work perfect and I was too tired/dumb to write down everything. I'll go open it and check.

Edit: 5cm for my Post wire. In the end my CPU-RST wire is 13cm. I was very curious about the whole long Post wire talk. I had to use 60cm Post when getting my CPU Key. However, a long wire did not help me with dash glitching. 6cm caused a problem similar to the OP. Just kept shortening. For me it was a combination of both wires. My Post was 6cm, and CPU_RST was 11cm. Changing one wire length just made the problem get slightly better or slightly worse, but never just right. Finally read a post somewhere where someone had used a thinker wire for both. I tried with no success, and by mistake grabbed the wrong wires when putting the thinner ones back on and BAM! it worked. Thats when I noticed the wires were slightly different lengths from the ones I took off.

I had this problem from as soon as i made the post_out shorter as 6cm.

Also when i put a REV B fan on it you can hear that it does not stop glitching the high pitched noise keeps going for ever. And when you try to turn it of the fan stops spinning but the light stays on. Anyway making the wire longer solved it :)

I dont understand why it is a problem that the threat is 8 months old, it looks like there are a lot of people that have this problem. Here is an example after 5 atempts the high pitched noise keeps going for ever. Seems like making the post longer didn't solve it either.

Edit: All people who have this problem that there V4 wont go past 5 glitches.
