Demon BB conversion on BB console Will not boot Xell

[GModz Tuts]

So I got my Demon BB a while back finally, installed it, and my CR had a pulled pad from a previous attempt so I waited it out and got a New Rev. C and installed it.

Upgraded my Demon's FW, to 1.04, and when I read my nand My first 2 dumps always match. And it reads they are bb dumps. But when I read/ write them to the demon it says its a SB demon? All my soldering is perfect, I Will post pictures as soon as my camera charges. But thats not what Im worried about. What im worried about is how its reading as a SB Demon when its been converted to a BB demon. Heres a log:

Re: Demon BB reading as a SB even with conversion and Firmware update?

Well, Got it to power on with the .ecc, I forgot I must put the .ecc on the DemoN due to the Enable point. Derp. But its taking a very long time to boot Xell I have been sitting here for 10 minutes and it still ahsnt booted Xell. I tried Cap open, cap closed, Jumper open, Jumper closed, what mroe can I try? Im using the 50 ohm low loss cable and its grounded.

what .. you know that the xbox nand is BB and the demon nand is SB?

I should have know that :facepalm: the Chip can only hold 16mb :rolleyes2: Duh. Sorry for the stupidity. Anyways, And Ideas why it will not boot Xell? I have done a lot of RGH jobs, but never a Dual nand until now. And ever One i have done before has been RGH1, Mine is RGH2 sadly.

You're probably better to post pics etc.

Will do, Wanted to post them when I made the thread but camera was dead. Ill take some and upload now.

Re: Demon BB reading as a SB even with conversion and Firmware update?

Pics:

Best Pics I can get, Includes CR wiring and DemoN wiring.

Yes, The Green Light is on - Its because I caught this picture while it was flashing.

DemoN Wiring

CoolRunner Rev. C Wiring


FYI! I used the BLUE wire for point F since it didnt come with a BROWN wire for F!!

The CR Ground is not burnt, Its from the flash. I even redid it. And points on the BB Conversion kit are not bridged, its just the pictures. I looked them over with a magnifying glass.


Also, I disabled the CR EN, Flashed a Non-Demon Timing file to the CR, and tried to boot Xell on the Onboard NAND - Hit eject, and nothing happenned. Maybe this will help.

Re: Demon BB reading as a SB even with conversion and Firmware update?

im not saying that your soldering is the problem but i can defenitly say that i see big flaws in your solderingskills and your common sence for wiring and installs. you dont think you should have isolated both ends of the low-loss cable? cutting down the un-isolated parts of your other wires etc.? and do your self a favor, get some good flux and learn how to use it.

 

[Martin C]

Re: Demon BB reading as a SB even with conversion and Firmware update?

You have the 'F' wire soldered to the wrong point on the board. That's 3.3v switched. I'd be surprised if you've not damaged the coolrunner already.

This I do, Thanks a Ton martin C. I have done a bunch of RGH installs and never done that, Im surprised I did, and Also surprised I didnt catch that. I hope the CR isn't burnt up,Its a brand new one. Am I ok so assume the CR is fine since the Green Light is flashing every 5 seconds?

 

[GModz Tuts]

Re: Demon BB reading as a SB even with conversion and Firmware update?

so i went ahead and tried the shielded cable un grounded as suggested by wnyconsoles i believe, no luck. tried the slim wire wrapped around the heatsinks and coiled over the southbridge, no luck. tried tevery timing file, no luck. tried a new .ecc, no luck.

so im wondering if its my cr. being that the green light flashes, do you guys think its ok?

Re: Demon BB reading as a SB even with conversion and Firmware update?

Can you post logs of the ECC / XSVF being written as well as new images of your CR soldering?

Here are the logs, My camera is charging but I will post new pics in about 30 minutes.

Here are the new pictures you asked for.

[Martin C]

Try all RGH2 timing files, including the Falcon one.

 

[GModz Tuts]

I tried tem all, demon enabled and not just in case

 

[GModz Tuts]

Just tried all timing files again, Demon Enabled and not enabled, Nothing. Tried slim cable, even routed away from the board completely, Nothing. Ungrounded low loss, nothing.

Also, When I set my switch to "slim" (trying to test that too as I heard it may work) The CR doesnt blink at all like it should.

 

[GModz Tuts]

Any more Ideas?

 

[Martin C]

Is this with a new CR chip, based on the fact you may have damaged this one?

If you've not tried 30-40 cm of kynar for CPU_RST yet, it's worth trying this first.

 

[GModz Tuts]

No, Its not due to me now having another one at hand. But This is what I may do: I have a slim sitting here that Needs RGH'ed anyway. I may take this chip out, RGH the slim, and see if it works. If so, Ill order a new one for my console. shall try Kynar wire in a bit here as well. Thanks Martin C!

Also, Do you have any Ideas why my fans speed up when I try to glitch the Demon nand to xell? I have never seen that before. Like, they go full blast right away. Its not bridged solder as It does not so this when I boot the retail nand.
