Still haven't rulled out a problem with the Post by testing as Antalpromille has suggested at least twice. A problem there would have the same symptoms as a bad connection on the CPU_RESET.

There is probably solder lodged all inside the connector so it is probably not going to seat correctly I would see if you can make it fit don't break it though if it does not fit right I would just dry the default blue wire and use that see if you can get a boot.

Or cut off the connector and solder it on.

when you say cut off connecter we are talking about cutting off the push in connector rite?

Actually yes that is probably a better idea I did not think about that before cut off the connector because the cable is fully grounded and shielded it will most likely give better results than the default cable.

Ok chaseresolute. I removed the ipex connector... now im going to write the corona magic file to my nand and try to glith...
Is it ok for me to leave my short wire on 5 cm on my postout adapter or i should put it on post01 pad on the adapter?

Did you cut off the connector and solder it back because you cannot glitch at all without that wire it's the most important thing in glitching. Cut off the connector and strip the wire then look at the install guide and solder it to the correct cpu RST point which in the guide would be the blue wire. Yes you can leave your yellow post wire on 5cm that is correct.

You miss understood. Cut the connector off of the wire/cable, strip it back and solder it to the D pad of the CR4.

If you want to use the IPEX cable instead of the blue wire then follow my steps above. The connector that you cut off of the CR4 and the D pad are electrically connected.

Yes.... Boy, talk about miss communication lol. The IPEX cable is just an option. It's not required.
