R-JTAG shopping list for CR4 /R-JTAG install (PHAT)

[Zeromisery]

Hey guys

I was given some excellent advice from chase on the necessary steps on how to RGH a box using a CR4

To encourage my laziness, I'm now looking for a shopping list. All i will need aside from a working xbox 360 (I'm only working with phatties so only need to know about quirks/adaptors for PHAT boxes)

So I've got my Phat xbox and she's open and ready for surgery: what are the tools I'm going to need?

A list with an explanation of what each item does would be massively helpful. I know that the CR4 has really shaken things up and simplified life

IE: " USB to (XXXX) Cable - to dump the NAND)

thanks in advance - Everyone I've had any interaction with on this site has been awesome and so patient.

if you can get one get a cr4 phat kit. it has the nand reader and all required qsb's along with the cr4

 

[Zeromisery]

so I'd need that kit:
J1D2 quick solder board from the Xecuter NAND-X QSB Install Kit.
Xecuter Non-Xenon JTAG Alt Kit (Kit #5)
TX JRunner NAND-X CR - Phat QSB V3

As well as a CR4 and Phat adaptor?

Would it be advisable to grab a double shielded pro cable with it?

 

[scott1503]

what is your location ? and i will link a kit

 

[Zeromisery]

I'm in north east scotland, I was was going to post a link to the "mr consoles" site where (I think) I've found all i need
I'm not sure on the forum policy on posting links into threads so I left it out

 

[Zeromisery]

keeping in mind that I have 15 'faulty' xboxes which I'm refurbishing and will be doing this several times if I'm successful - are there any "XXXXX" - to USB ccables I could buy to make life easier?

Important safety tip. Thanks, Egon.

I'm getting 404 when i follow that link? - (EDIT - probably because I haven't signed up yet - derp)

 

[scott1503]

create a account with them then follow the link it should work. if not raise a ticket (in support section) and ask for vip status on ck and you will be able to view the items then

 

[Zeromisery]

Still not letting me in after singing up but there may be an admin review before I'll get access. I'll post back here if I manage to access the link or not after 25 hours or so

Just to consider. Out of all them phat xboxs u have, if u have a xenon motherboard then there is no rgh hack for them. Only for key recovery on rgh1 and of course if it has a dash 7371 or below then it may be jtaggable.

 

[Zeromisery]

thanks for that, Geekheat. they are all 7371 or below but I haven't yet checked the boards.
I bought 15 'faulty' boxes in various states of fault. going to refurbish and RROD fix all of them and see which ones come up Millhouse. after I have working boxes, I'm going to get to work on jtag/rgh

on that note mike has sent me a reply he has 4 phat kits which he is putting on now and will not be restocking after those till new year.

 

[Zeromisery]

I've asked for email updates on stock. I'm in no rush - I really just want one to have one to have a trial run before I start bulk buying them.

 

[Zeromisery]

am i going to need a programmer or any comms cables that dont come in the bundle?

 

[scott1503]

that kit comes with a jrp v1.1

 

[Zeromisery]

well had I used my apparently malfunctioning eyes I'd have known that! that's fantastic value, considering that the chip and phat adaptor alone at mrconsoles costs twice that much!

 

[Hypotoad]

The only other thing you need if you don't have one is a USB to Mini A cable for the JR Programmer, they are quite common but not to be confused with a Micro USB. I know because I bought the wrong one at first.
