R-JTAG Jasper Full dump and soldering quality check

[MrKronic]

Hi,

I've recently started doing the R-JTAG mod by myself. So far I came across a couple of problems and have some queries that need to be answered.

My first board is a Jasper BB with a 512mb NAND, of which I made 4 normal dumps and 2 full dumps. Although I didn't have any problems with the normal dumps, I encountered an error with the full dumps which looks like this:

My question is, will that affect the Xell image/retail image in any way if I try to build one using the full dumps? I want to be sure on its safety before I progress onto writing Xell into the NAND....

Also, regarding the POST qsbs.... How can I ensure a perfect connection with the qsb and the mobo? Will a continuity test be enough or do I take readings at specific voltages/amps?

Here are the pics of the solder job. Please don't hesitate to point out any problems. Thanks in advance....

 

[ultimate360]

You will be fine, that error is not in the first 50 blocks so xell will boot up fine. Yes, you can build an image off the full dumps. I have gotten this error on many jasper bb's, it won't affect anything unless it's in the first 50 blocks, so you're okay. Your post soldering looks ok and seems to be connected, but it looks like a few points could use some more flux and a quick touch up so they get shiny. Nand wires should be fine since you were able to get valid dumps.

 

[MrKronic]

Thanks for the quick response. What if I need to return back to retail ? Won't I need to use the full dump to make the retail image then?

Also how can I check whether my POST points ( in general) are perfectly soldered? For this one, I used a meter to check for continuity from the points under the CPU heatsink and the corresponding points on the ribbon cable. The results turned out fine, but will that be enough of a confirmation?

 

[john mathews]

just load your orginal dump and your fine if u wont to go back to stock

And what about the POST continuity check?

Ah, nice of you to intervene Martin C, and quite a timely one too, because I think there is a bigger problem......

Basically I just flashed the Xell image to the NAND and installed all the other QSBs and the alt cpu_rst point and everything and checked for continuity with the multimeter. However when I tried to run the console, the R-JTAG chip flashes green approximately 3-4 times and then it RRODs with the error code 0022 (which is for no proper NAND image in the NAND, i presume?). So, I ran a POST monitor test afterwards which gave me the following result:

After the POST test ended, I shut off the console and shutdown the PC (power issues). After this, J-Runner doesn't detect the console at all anymore.....What could be the issue?

 

[AllyNerd]

Reseat your cables. Of course for the Rrod have u tried all the combinations(dip settings voltages) as per the installation guide?

 

[The Result]

I'm not sure of your problem but im sure you will get help you are probably getting those nand errors because of your soldering of the nand wires, they are not horrible but could be better. Although your yellow looks pretty f**ked up

yea you actually didnt do too bad on the soldering,but some of the spi points do look to be cold soldered,touch em up a tad,also make sure your nand reading device shows up in jrunner after u plug it up to pc.ive had to reflash the hex files to i dont know haw many jr programmers in the past after issues like these.it may be the pic also but the post qsb looks like it has a couple cold soldered to it as well.again,not bashing,your solder def looks a thousand times better than some you see on here,just use some flux and touch em up a tad

Haven't tried that yet, the dip settings are set to the standard 7-8 ON, others OFF combo. Will give it a shot right now.....

Thanks a lot....Yes, I do admit my soldering looks real sh*tty, but I blame it on the equipment I have which is unfortunately the best I can manage :/ (especially the 30W soldering iron i own with a fairly thick tip that's definitely NOT suited for fine work). Hence the butchered yellow wire and the cold joints on the POST qsbs.... :/

Now I have several suspicions regarding the boot failure. Could it be that I refitted the DVD drive to the console before doing the Xell boot or is the because of using the alt CPU_RST point topside?
