CR3 Pro Install on Corona V4

[Scorpion101]

Hi guys I need some help with a install on a Corona V4 motherboard 4gb console , here is what I have a CR3 Pro starter kit
Post Fix Adapter version 1 ..... Ps I have done 2 Trinity consoles and this is my first attempt on a Corona

What I don't have is QSB version 3 and I wanted to know if I could wire the chip directly onto the board using the wire diagrams for a Version 1 or 2 coronna board , like mentioned in the following link

Please note I'm in South Africa and to get consumables for the RGH is quiet an effort all help and advice will be highly appreciated

You can't use a CR3-Pro full post on a v3+ Corona.

Thanks Martin , Please could you advise me on which would be the ideal chip to purchase for the Corona version 4 motherboard , I have already read the nand of the mother board with the SD QSB and all looks good

Ps this is the Corona 4gb console ... I do have a Cool Runner Version C but I'm not happy with using it as I know I might not get good glitch times and I have to purchase a Upgrade QSB with crystal .

Thanks in advance for your help

If you read my RGH roadmap for noobies, it lists the compatible chips.

Thanks for the quick response Martin I have already dumped the nand using the SD reader QSB you have advised me to use ..... I just need to order the CR3 Pro with Fake Post .... once I have received all items I will take a picture and post so you guys can confirm that is all I will require to continue the glitch .... PS will I also be requiring thermal paste ?

 

[Martin C]

If you've lifted the heatsink, best replace the thermal paste.

 

[Scorpion101]

Will do thanks for all the help .... Will post back once I have all the required consumables

Hi guys I have received all my items required to do the glitch , I do however have a question is it possible to use a version 1 post fix adapter with a CR3 Pro (Fake Post) and if not why .... Basically what is the difference between the two
I have attached a link to the adapter I currently have

Thanking you guys in advance for the help....

The difference between the two is simple.

Version 1 basically gives you access to the post out from under the chip and gets you a point to solder to, the version 2 give you the same thing but has several soldering points where you can specify the length of the wire to that point, so basically you don't need to add extra cable, just solder to the points specified and it will do that for you.

Thanks buddy , so I'm going to use the version 1 adapter as I have unfortunately ordered that version I would have preferred the v2 but hey that serves me right for not reading the complete product info ....

Once again thanks for responding

 

[Martin C]

Nothing wrong with the v1. Perfect for CR3-Pro use as you'll probably only need to keep the POST_OUT at 10cm. If you need it longer, nothing stops you from using a longer wire.

Thanks Martin ... One last question the QSB that the CPU RST wire solders to does it need to be as short as possible as I noticed most guys are getting good glitch times when their blue wires are trimmed ? The QSB I'm talking about is the one that comes with the CR3 PRO starter kit I have attached a link to the starter kit I'm referring to

For the pro, trim all wires to fit.
