Console:Trinity
Progammer:DemoN
Nand:16 MiB Small Block
Dashboard:17349
Console Functional Before:Yes
Green Light Status:Always on and non-blinking
QSB: Trinity QSB v3
Post QSB:N/A

Before I start with the issue, I'd just like to state that my experience comes from chipping Ps2's, Xbox's, and Gamecubes in the past. So I know what a good solder joint looks and feels like, etc. I've got backups of the original nand via the DemoN. I tried sending different .xvsf files to it and the included .ecc for trinity consoles after having generated my own with J-Runner didn't work. I think it might be something with the install. The D point lifted off the board but I soldered to it successfully before it did. I taped it down to prevent any further damage to the point. It's still at it's original length also. I didn't trim it down like the install image stated. I'm thinking about unsoldering that point and using an alternate point for better contact. The Post out looks fine and solid. The Dbg23 point lifted clean off when I was trying to set the wire I soldered to it down so I soldered straight to the E point on the QSB. The QSB solder points are all solid. I can upload pictures later of the soldering, just can't take any atm b/c the macro function isn't great on my phone. For some reason the debug light never goes off. Even when I boot with the DemoN flash off. It still boots normally and there's no red dot so I'm pretty puzzled at this point. Any help is appreciated though. Thanks everyone!

The green light is controlled by POST_OUT (C), maybe you used the wrong point or it's shorting with another point nearby, pics would really help.

Alright. I'll take some once I am able to. Looks like D just did a 180 and folded back onto itself. I got lucky with that one! I'm about to patch up the C point. I'll update once it's finished and tested.
