ok I have a v1.1, solder filled my holes, i cleaned them and installed the pin header. heres where i am at

Both blue leds on the chip light up, along with the green protect. when i turn it on it frags for 3 times then flashes red green, now. I figured it was dealing with the d0 wire. so i messed with the soldering and screwed up the bottom, fixed so the box boots normally again and im back to where i was. Now ive tried disabling the mod with the power button, doenst work. if i disconnect the lan,hd,do plug from the chip it boots normally. I tried soldering the d0 on the top, still isnt working. Now heres my question unless you guys know the answer. if its all lighting up, it should be functioning, but its just not booting, does this mean it is only the d0 wire or is it the pin header? how can i tell if its flashed bad, and why isnt the mod disable working.
Thanks i hope im not repeating a situation.

Yes without the chip it boots fine, i thought i may have messed up the track, but i followed the tutorial and it appeared to work.

Bad soldering of the pin header, just cause all lights turn on doesn't mean anything. I had same problem so I threw out the pin header and did a wire install.

Ok this means that you probably splashed solder on your motherboard, so go back and check to find any solder splashes.
