Lifted Pad R3B15

I'm not sure but having that long of a wire between the resistor and FT3N2 doesn't seem like it'd be good for boot times?

But its definitely a much less riskier fix than what I did. Congrats
Heres the video for anyone who wants to see it. I boot the Xbox 6 Times in the Video.

The text that I typed in notepad is supposed to be:

"You should wait like 15-30 Seconds after you power off before trying to boot again"

Turning the xbox on and off repeatedly in a short period of time is probably not a good thing but that may just be me.

Help

Hello everyone, earlier I had lifted this point, but had fixed it. I made sure it wouldn't move and then I put hotglue on it, somehow it lost contact so I tryed to remove the glue and It lifted a little resistor thing below I put some pics. How can I fix this?

BTW its messy because of the flux

Thanks for any help

My booting time was 2 min.
I tried to shorten the cpu_rst wire from 50cm to 35cm, the coolrunner will not glitch. so i re-soldered it back and now the console will boot in 5sec to a minute.
maybe if i tried your way i would have steady booting time, but anyhow its booting and i am happy.

Yeah, it might have to do with the long wire but as long as you are satisfied with it, thats great

And 2615863, if you have your resistor, what I suggest is that you:

Step 1) Only proceed if you don't want or can't take it to a pro. (Or if you are a pro?)
Step 2)Instead of trying to take the resistor and soldering it back to the board, what you may want to do is solder a short wire to one side of the resistor and then solder the other side of the wire to the board where you pulled the resistor off.
Step 3) Now depending on whether you have a phat or a slim, find the alternate point and solder a wire from that point to the other side of the resistor. Theres a thread in this same forum for the alternate point.
Step 4) Solder the glitcher to the alternate point instead.

If anyone sees a problem with this please let me know.

In the pic above, I state you should solder to the alternate point but if you have good access to the trace you ripped, solder to that instead.

Thank you, gotta love the support, I have a old zephr that was a f*ck up reball, Can I get some resistors from there? (This is a falcon BTW)]


I have done lots of RGH installs, I just never used Hot glue but I my customer requested it.(Out of all 17 Phats I've done, none came back...)

You don't have the resistor you lifted? Also use 15 watt iron to do this(less chance of burning things out) And you should be able to use a resistor from the other board but make sure you measure the resistance using a multimeter and confirm its the same as the one you lifted.

Aren't all the little resistors lined up here the same?

I'm not sure, it'd be better for you to start a new topic to confirm that so that people can help answer that. Easy to test with a multimeter though if you've got one.(Mine is at the lab where I work part-time)

I have one too, ill have to see
