Post a pic then please.

What about my other point?
Sure, give me a moment.
On the NAND points. What do you mean by lifted? No point was lifted. All are fine. It's a Corona V3, so the QSB was necessary. If you're referring to CE; I only have V1 boards. I just make a hole in it for the resistor, then use kynar wire for CE and D4.

You don't need TX and RX soldered, so you can take those out of the equation for now.
Alright. Just removed them. I should note, when reading the 360 NAND, I now get this error:
Current: DemoN

Soldering issue?

Checking the output in a hex editor is far more reliable and you'll see for yourself if there are any problems.
I'll compare it to the original dump, but that doesn't really solve the no power side of things. I'm going to take a wild guess and say that they have to do something with each other. But I don't know where the issue lies.

Ok, however that further supports the theory of there being a problem, as the only way for you to dump the 360 NAND with the DemoN is to have SBR soldered. Otherwise pressing the button on the switch won't do anything (AFAIK) and will just read/write to the DemoN regardless of the light status.

It's entirely possible the issue is with the DemoN. Have you tried putting it into bootloader mode and updating the firmware again, just in case?

I'll test it. From what Uber and Xecuter said, all that needs to be soldered is the QSB points, 5V, GND, and RB for NAND reading. But yes, I tested reading with SBR and it didn't change anything. I'll go ahead and update the firmware and see what happens. It was working with 1.01, but then I updated to 1.04 when X8 soldered was giving me a red dot.

Thought it had 1.04, but it was on 1.00 still. Updated, same issue. I used the DemoN toolbox and get this error when reading 360 NAND:

I meant from what point to what point?

eg you should be testing from the NAND on the DemoN to the NAND on the 360. The pins should match point for point.

Ah. I was doing the actual pad to the 360 NAND. Not DemoN NAND to 360 NAND. I'll re-do that now; although I don't think it will change much. In your opinion, the soldering looks alright, right? I don't see any shorts on my end and it was working perfectly fine at one time. I just don't know why it stopped working.

Multimeter set to continuity mode. Displayed 0.00 to show it being open.
I don't know about your meter but most show 0 when its closed not open. 0
Meaning the resistance is 0. Mine shows an OL when the circuit is open.


Tapatalk misspelled it. Knot me.
