I just got my coolrunner in today and I was obviously excited to get it up and running...

I picked up a used 360(Zephyr). I'm using JTAG Tool 4.25. I'm trying to create the ecc file now but i'm getting this:

Code:
* found flash image, unpacking...
ECC'ed - will unecc.

 * found decrypted CD
 * found XeLL binary, must be linked to 1c000000
 * we found the following parts:
SMC: 2.3

I've done some searching but every thread I find ends without an answer. What I have found leads me to believe that this Zephyr may just not be supported. Coolrunner(and the rgh in general) is supposed to work on Zephyrs, so if that's the case, why are there no warnings??

I'd appreciate any help.

There have been reported differences in SMCs of the same version, which is why it's failing CRC checks. Upload your NAND and I'll take a look.

Its not. I got the console from a friend, he removed the hardware and lost the original nand.

Just because it's not booting now, doesn't mean it WASN'T JTAG'd!

Just program a Coolrunner with zephyr timing and fit it then. It should work.

I meant the console isnt currently jtag'd. He removed the jtag qsb's and put them into another console. I'll try your suggestion and report back.

If the image you uploaded was on there originally, all you need to do is fit the CR when programmed with the Zephyr timing.

That didnt work. The red pwr light on the CR is on and a green light blinks a few times and I get 3 red lights.

What is the secondary error code?

Press and hold the eject button and toggle the sync button. Watch the light pattern.

1 light = 1
2 lights = 2
3 lights = 3
4 lights = 4

I have no way of doing that at the moment. It takes the console about 20 seconds to give me an error if that's any help.
I know I'm a new at this, but don't I still need to create and flash a working ecc file?

Does the green light on the CR flash at all when you boot it? I'm afraid that your in between the point of it being a hardware issue (CPU) and a software issue (LDVs). It would have be nice for you to see this thing boot with the stock nand before you bought it.

5s- issue with CPU_RST/CPU_PLL_BYPASS
15s - LDV
30s - GPU issue.

Yep, flashes 5 times. I would have liked that, but I know it booted with the jtag hardware installed.

I don't have anymore suggestions for you at this point. If the green LED is flashing on the CR then it is attempting to glitch but I'm not sure if that means that your wiring is 100% correct. Without posting pics it's just to hard to tell.

I don't seem to be the only person having issues with the Zephyr. If this is an actual widespread issue it needs to be in the product description. Making people pay to find out they can't glitch their console isn't very consumer friendly.

I wouldn't be so fast to blame it on the CR or the type of motherboard. I would have to say that most of the time, the failures are related to the install. You will find just as many people having the same issue with Falcons, Jaspers and Trinitys.

Funny how your ready to blame it on something else when you bought a non-working xbox and just assumed that it didn't have any issue to begin with. That to me my friend is a huge failure on your part.

do you see what I mean? This was just the first few I found by googling that error on this site for non Xenon motherboards.

I didnt buy a non-working 360. If I wanted to jtag it(and ive done many successful jtag installs) or RGH my retail Trinity, I could. But I already own the CR kit for phat consoles(which supports Zephyr). And after many more hours of searching after my original post I have found many places that say only CB 4578 & 4579 work for Zephyrs. Something that should be in the product description, no?

And for more info on the install job, it's been completely tested and is rock solid. Console modding skill != soldering skill.
