Hey guys.
So I'm doing a direct wire JTAG install and I'm having issues. First I couldb't get a good ground solder so I went for the alternative point and eventually got it to stick. Got a good read with NANDPRO and went to do another. I think at that point my ground came loose. I resoldered every single wire with a 40 watt iron instead and all looks shiny and nice. I'll update and post photos in a bit in case I'm mising something. Sure I did some on the bottom of the MB and the ground on the other point but otherwise a normal install. It seemed easier this way instead of being cramped and running a greater risk of bridging. Either way now I can only get "flash controller not detected". I'm wondering if maybe the ground came off during my second read and this somehow upset my NAND. I tried booting, with my flasher disconnected of course, and got all green lgihts and working everything. So perhaps it is my solder. What should I do? I have a multimeter and was wondering if anybody could guide me through the best way to verify things with it. On the surface things look good but I want to be sure. If the NAND is upset, should I short the pins in the top? Is there any real danger to this provided I actually short the right ones? I feel like that could have happened but don't want to try it and fry my board. I'll take some photos in a bit and let the more experienced members of this board take a look.
