ok so i have a demon dual nand corona v1 using a qsb v3 and a CR3 lite and lets get this straight that i'm glitching just fine. my problem is when i'm on my 2nd nand "freeboot" if you will. and i hit my guide button on the controller an empty guide box appears and then my xbox locks right up. i can go through everything like fsd and xex menu but as soon as i want to return to the dashboard it locks up. i felt this was a programming issue so i have rebuilt my image a few times and still no luck. its not that i cant use the xbox its just rather anoying. any help would be appreciated. youtube video for those that arnt following.

Did you test the demon before you installed it? (Write a file to the demon and read it back to make sure it is working correctly) Any bad blocks in either nand reads?

Had that issue once and today again as the box came back for update...

How did you checked for the bad blocks?

Found that jrunner couldn't handle the one on that demon but as I wrote the image with the demon toolbox it sorted everything out just fine.

Solved!!! well jrunner was telling me there there was no bad blocks in any of my reads or my builds but i just finally after about a day of frustration realized that when it was writing my file it had an invalid block when it was written. then i just selected my update.bin and chose the advanced dropdown box and selected Demon/ Fusion write. powercycled and bam worked like a charm. i guess i just need to pay more attention to my log.

the point where it says the nands were invalid was where i had written then reread what i wrote and they didnt match up.
