FIXED Retail Dash Won't Boot - PLEASE HELP!

[skaffle]

Hello all. First post here although I've been reading these forums for forever. I need some help.

First off. I have a Corona V3 and it is currently equipped with a CR3 Lite and a DemoN. I will warn you that I had the DemoN installed with included QSB but I destroyed the QSB when taking it off because I wanted to check my soldering. Therefore, my install looks a bit....messy.

My dilemma: I cannot get the retail dash to boot. No matter what. I can get the glitched dash to boot with no problems. I cannot, however, get the retail dash to boot. I've tried on the Xbox NAND as well as the DemoN NAND (with the CR un-hooked) -NO GO..:frown:

I've also tried different dash versions and compiling a dash from scratch with the files from ECC.

I know how you all are about pictures so I will be posting some immediately following (as soon as I figure out how to do it.) and I'm going to warn you...it's a bit messy. HINT: it's a DemoN wire install.

I'm at my wit's end so someone please help me. I think I've included everything. I apologize if I forgot anything. I think I've covered all the basis.

I've looked very closely at each and every solder point. Even though it looks sloppy I'm fairly certain there are no problems. (of course what do i know)

Again, working on pictures now. Apparently Chrome won't let me upload them. Trying a different browser

The stock NAND needs to be on the 360 and RGH on the DemoN.

The CR ribbon needs to be connected to the DemoN and a 'Demon enabled' Timing file needs to be written to the CR.

If you can confirm all of this, we can go from there.

All of this is confirmed. Also. When trying to boot to stock my "power button" light is green for about 30 seconds and then changes to red

 

[Martin C]

When booting stock, is the debug light flashing on the CR?

 

[Scrufdog]

could this be an LDV mismatch problem?

Very likely - good shout!

OP - you know you can't just choose ANY retail dash, right?
Read my LDV sticky.

No. Just the solid red light on the CR

I was actually wondering about that but I'm not all that familiar with LDVs. I will certainly look into your LDV sticky.

Martin, I just want you to know that I'm about to buy a plane ticket to Scotland just so I can give you a (manly) kiss. Your LDV post saved the day and my Xbox!

Simply problem, simple solution.

Thanks again. Also, Scrufdog, many thanks to you too!

Save the money on the plane ticket, better buy me a new xbox one, i think Martin will be more happy with that money spend than the kiss you will bring him otherwise...

Glad we could help. Enjoy.

You're welcome!
