Hi all. A buddy and I have spent the last 4 hours trying to RGH my Xbox Slim Trinity with a Xecuter CR4 XL and J-R Programmer bought from here: http://www.modchipcentral.com/store/Xecuter-CR4-XL-RGH/JTAG-SLIM-and-PHAT-USA-Canada.html
I am on the latest dashboard, 17489.
We have been following this video throughout the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKCKQMuuTP8
What we have accomplished tonight without any issues:
So right now we are stuck on timestamp 1:10:40 in the video above. He is trying to boot up the Xbox and do some debugging by counting the number of green LED flashes in order to fine tune the CR4 to boot quickly. The problem we are having is that we aren't getting any kind of green LED light at all on the CR4 (the power light is good). There are a few things we might not be doing right which could cause this, but I honestly have no idea where to go from here. Switches 3 & 4 on the CR4 are enabled as recommended by that video.
I've read a bunch of threads on this topic and the solution is usually pretty specific to each person. Here are some pictures of our job so far, so hopefully you guys can look at this and try to point us in the right direction. We didn't take any pictures of the underside of the motherboard because at that point it was in the case already and we were too tired to take it out to take more pictures. If you need images of the back, we can get them uploaded later tomorrow, just please let us know. We soldered the two wires on the back the same as the guy in the video.
Thank you in advance for the help, you guys rock! I've also attached a video where I briefly illustrate our problem.

What we have accomplished tonight without any issues:
- Disassemble XBOX
- Solder in wires for J-R Programmer
- Read/saved original NAND
- Mounted CR4 XL
- Soldered wires to CR4 XL according to the above referenced video (except for red power)
- Reassemble the console with no power to the CR4 to see if it boots properly (it did)
- Solder the power to the CR4
- Connect J-R Programmer to PC to create and write the .ECC file

- We don't have the Xbox plugged in Ethernet -> Router as he does in the video when we are trying the step at 1:10:40. I don't know if this matters completely because he said it isn't necessary but helps speed up the process. Is this necessary? We are working on it out in a garage far from a router.
- The CR4 switch was set to "Phat" by default and we didn't notice until after the first time the .ECC was written and we were wondering why we had no green LED flashing. We tried powering off and switching it to "Slim" and re-creating/re-writing the .ECC with the switch in "Slim" mode. This made no difference but it probably needs to stay on "Slim"
