nand keeps corrupting

[Martin C]

Make sure you unplug the NAND-x between retries.

It doesn't matter what data is on the NAND, nandpro doesn't actually care to that level. As long as you can read/write consistently. Therefore either your NAND-x is playing up or your soldering is at fault.

guess i'll go for the wires directly then?

 

[Martin C]

What was the LAST thing you wrote to the console?

 

[esbmaepo]

Why the hell would he want an LPT cable if he's dumping via USB?

Confusion here. Please explain!

Yes his dumping with nand-x and pin headers. I suggested that he try soldering wire directly to board. He could do that with a LPT cable without having to cut of nand-x wire connectors.

Of course if he has another USB nand reader that would be better. I personally use a NAND FLASHER with a home-made connector and always solder wires directly.

the bad nand repair image i attempted..

which according to 360 flash tool does not have the same 2bl 4bl 6bl 7bl as my original...

 

[Martin C]

So you flashed someone else's NAND to your console?

The issue is you've corrupted your SMC. You need to erase the first block but you will need to do it via the bad flash method.

 

[afsilver]

is there really anything you don't know?

would this be the bad flash method?

dear god , let there be something safer!

This might be safer:

Just make sure you don't have the PSU connected to the console for this !!

 

[afsilver]

neat, just to be sure so i don't fck up anything more, i'll have to use the pic for zephyr, but do i solder GND to both of the black points or do i choose?

 

[Martin C]

Black=Ground. Any ground point will do TBH.

once soldered, run nandpro usb: -e16 0 1

remove and reinsert PSU. It should now be able to be read and written to.

got same thing 4-5 times:

but then suddenly:

this is with a usb cable which i tested to 5.04volts and never plugged the psu in of course, just to clareify that..

 

[Martin C]

Yep, looks good!

remove the extra voltage and put back the PSU.

You should be able to read/write.

Start from the top - what DO you have of this console which is good?

 

[afsilver]

edited my previous post, you sure all is good?

 

[Martin C]

ok - try erasing again and writing back your last good NAND.

 

[afsilver]

no use, keep getting error 0
should i try with psu?

You could try erasing entire nand -e16. Probably get the same error though.

 

[Martin C]

Sorry, missed that your FlashConfig is wrong.

Check your pinheaders again. Disconnect your 5v bad flash addon for now as that's not the problem.

okay, i'll solder the wires directly and bost back asap.

 

[afsilver]

Looks like i smashed c3b8 wile installing the pin-headers, what is it and is it relevant?

It's an SMD cap - not sure of the value though.

Don't know if it's relevent either.
