Could not detect flash controller

[heor450]

ok so ive left the points alone for awhile and for the past week i havnt messed with the points and my nand x was detected and i was able to read and write

then today i pluged it in and it was not detected i tried shorting the nand pluging in at different variations and it still says the same fatal error mesage "cannot detect flash controller"

when i turn on the xbox it flashes 1 red light at the bottom right led. and the screen remains black with no image .

pls help as my jtag was perfect for about a day and i cant believe i managed to f**k it all up idk what i did?

Any pics of what you've currently done?

 

[heor450]

ya but i covered with electrical tape a while ago to protect , i dont see what pics would do tho. cuz it just out of no where stopped working

Because if your soldering wasn't as good as it should be, something may have come loose.

Why are you so reluctant to post pics of your soldering?

Do you not want help?

A) Is your xbox plugged in?
B) Check your wiring
C) Check your soldering
D) Post pictures of your soldering

By shorting your nand you could have screwed up the xbox

its just that fixing the solder isnt the asnwer to everything id like to be assisted with something else

 

[heor450]

Pictures not so good....As everyone as posted previously poor conections equals "could not detect flash controller"

take better photos

underside of board aswell you may have burnt the pads

 

[Martin C]

Now I know why you didn't want to post pics. How this ever worked is beyond me.

Get someone competent to solder it for you - please.

 

[syst3merror]

yep, pretty much what ^^ he said.

just because it DID work with your wiring, doesn't mean it will stay working with your wiring.....your soldering is shoddy, the wires look like crap, and you obviously don't know what you are doing. (sorry, but it's true)

 

[heor450]

ok so u guys are intent on keeping to blame the soldering... ok lets say the soldering was perfect and still didnt detect could u actually give me helpful advice?

So you want a hypothetical situation discussed.

Ok - if your soldering and wiring was perfect, yes.

Next question.

Yeah - I can't see what you're shooting for here? - How you can you expect people to help when you wont complete the first steps? That's like saying - "my car was going along fine, and then it just spluttered to a stop" -the help being "have u checked the fuel tank has fuel in it?" and then u saying - it's not an empty tank and I'm not going to look - what else can it be?"
