Flash Config 0x00000000 Cannot Continue?

[Poisonwinter]

This is my first xbox I've ever modded. I have everything soldered, J-runner installed, JR-Programmer driver, etc. I thought I had everything ready to go but when trying to read the NAND on J-Runner i keep getting "Flash Config 0x00000000 Cannot Continue." I know this is a common problem but the reasons it happens can vary. All the folks that have helped me on here have been really great and you guys are way more experienced than I doing this. Could you please give these photos a look see and tell me what the issue might be? The soldering looks alright I think, especially considering this is the first thing I EVER soldered haha. The only thing I would think it could have been was the blue wire, which I re-soldered and tried again but I'm still getting the error.

Many thanks!

some of your points need more solder use flux and touch them up

Does it power on or is it dead?

 

[Poisonwinter]

I haven't tried powering it on since installing the mods. But yes, it did before.

 

[Poisonwinter]

Yeah I figured this might have been better in the J-Runner section after posting it but I don't think I can delete this one. My bad!

 

[Krafter]

Try it now. If it does powering on (doesn't have to boot) then that will rule out damage to the STBY_CLK point.

 

[Poisonwinter]

I mean I plugged in the power and the light for the CR4 came on if that's what you mean.

 

[Krafter]

Power on the console.

 

[Poisonwinter]

Crap, I don't think it can. Unless I'm doing something wrong, which I really hope so. If it's damaged what do I do? What is the STBY_CLK point?

 

[Krafter]

Photot(4).jpg shows the connection to the STBY_CLK. Sounds like you've damage that point and it needs to be repaired. You've either damaged the trace or blown the resistor. Get a multimeter and measure from the far side of the resistor (closest to the HANA chip) and to the solder pad on the QSB. You should get ~33 ohms.

 

[Poisonwinter]

Here's a close up of the point. It doesn't look that bad, but I'm no expert. Does it look damaged? What else could it be besides that?

 

[Krafter]

Did you measure it with a multimeter? Most of the time when the console won't power on and you get a 0x0 when trying to read or write the NAND, it's a problem with that point. The only way to know for sure is to measure resistance.

 

[Poisonwinter]

Sadly I don't have a multimeter right now. I'll have to get one. TYPICALLY does it mean the point is damaged or just needs to be resoldered?

Re: I Think I Broke My Console.

from your picture it looks fine but that doesnt mean that , thats not it.

Re: I Think I Broke My Console.

check that resistor beside STBY_CLK and make sure it measures 33 ohms.. if not, replace it with a 33 ohm resistor

also, you should complete the template or at least post pics of all the areas you've soldered to

If you lifted the pad it needs to be repaired by scraping the trace leading up to the pad and soldering it to the left side of the resistor (left being away from the Hana). If the resistor is bad itself it just needs to be replaced. Both of those are difficult for a novice and if not done properly can destroy your console. Just want to make sure you know what you're getting into. Also, there are tons of threads and guides on what to check and how to repair for this particular issue. Check google and get yourself a multimeter.

 

[Poisonwinter]

I don't think I lifted the pad. If I removed all the solder would I be able to see if any damage was done to the point?

My advice will don't do anything more because you going to kill your console. Give it to pro for repair and RGH install.

Yes you need to re do your soldering. if you used flux you did not use enough. your getting the error when trying to read the nand because there is a bad connection on those QSBs.
before you do anything at all i would get a Junk board or anything and practice for a lil bit before you try this again. i have said this before. the quality of your soldering will determine weather a console will boot/glitch or not.
i only say this to help you.
Once you got the hang of soldering then i would remove the CR4s 5 V wire and disable JTAG QSB and make sure the console still boots retail.
