Need Help With JTAG Part

[OmegaNemesis28]

Got my NAND to read.
Made 10 or so copies.
I compared them, no problems.

BUT - degrader doesn't want to check the CB version. I looked it up, and someone told me to hex edit 2007 to 2005 in one of the dumps and try it. Degrader then reads it but comes up blank. I have no clue what's going on.

When writing Xell - I get the TOP LEFT and BOTTOM RIGHT red lights. Is this E79? I get nothing on screen.

If I rewrite the backup NANDs, they all boot to the Xbox dashboard but I still can't get Xell to work.
EDIT: I'm fairly certain the soldering is fine. If you must have pics I shall provide.

I used 360 Flasher Tool and it tells me my CB version is 4580. I heard about this revision somewhere before - and I need to use Falcon Xell or something?

EDIT
OK!!!
Now, using Xell and editing it's SMC and making it completely Falcon I FINALLY got somewhere.
Now I am getting the E79 error. I see the screen. This is a massive progression compared to what I've been doing the past 3 hours! lol


EDIT2:
I FEEL SO STUPID!!!
the answer was right infront of me! I soldering the red wire in the wrong place!!!!!!!!!!!
I was testing for continuity and I noticed that the red and yellow wire, due to the diodes, do not work in continuity. So I knew I had to test the wires BEFORE the diodes. Well, I accidentally hit the yellow wire while testing the red wire and the stupid multimeter went off. I was like.... wait..... NO!!!!! It was a lightbulb.
I got Xell to work. I feel so happy and relieved, but at the same time EXTRAORDINARILY pissed I burned 6 hours working on this because of two things:
-Zephyr revision takes Falcon data
-and my own stupidity
Ontop of the 3 weeks I've been trying to JTAG an Xbox.

the e79 is all jtag related if the console boots with the stock nand

pics would help 100% to eliminate the install

and what hardware are you using nand-x wire with diodes?

what motherboard?

jorgesalas831 we do not need error codes it's jtag related please stop posting bad advice or useless information

I guess you can tell me that...just trying to help out....out of all the jtags ive done i have never seen that error so i figured that the secondary error would help...sorry i guess if it was bad advice..

Lmao nice xmods I cracked up. lol

error code means nothing when you see that one line no matter what the error code is it's jtag related not into arguing don't work with me

I just don't know why degrader won't open the NAND dumps.

 

[jorgesalas831]

mmm check if the switch is on the off position..cant see if it is in the pic

J2D2 qsb looks a little rough their 3 points look like they might be bad

• If you get, cannot read file , you must edit the orig.bin file. Make a copy of it, origcopy.bin and open it up in your hex editor. At offset 0×0012 , you will see 2004 – 2007 Microsoft Corporation…
• Change it to : 2004 – 2005 Microsoft Corporation and it will open with Degraded

as I said before - I did that. Degraded opens it but it is BLANK.

And to the question about the switch - I've tried all 3

And the 2 points on the far right that lead to the red and black wires are pretty rough. I'm not sure how I should fix them

I have a question.
For the red wire, can I solder just the red wire to the alternative point which would be on the DVD drive like this? Or do I need to also change the yellow wire if I do that as well?

 

[PureVVater]

You can solder the red wire to the dvd point without soldering the yellow wire to aud-clamp. Just make sure to edit the smc if you do so.

Tsk
If only SMC didn't error out on me EVERY time I try and use it. Missing DLLs even though they're right there.
