Hey guys
I have a trinity. Installed the QSB, dumped the nand, made ecc file and wrote ecc image, got the cpu key, wrote rgh nand, turned system on and the coolrunner never flashes green. i repeat all steps again with a fresh nand. same thing, no green light. after about an hour of messing around with solder points i've all but destroyed the cpu_rst and post_out1 points. i had to scrape and dig, but i managed to set a solid solder to both once again. i'm also afraid i may have messed up the resistor point on the QSB.

But here's the weird part:
I flash the original nand, power up, and now the coolrunner is flashing green. I'm not sure what this is evidence of... is this at least proof that all my solder points are good?
I want to just remove everything and leave it as a live enabled box, but I'll mess with it some more if you guys think I can salvage it.

the green light indicates it is trying to glitch the system. if your going to remove it then remove it and see if it boots to dash. no point trying to boot a stock dash with it installed. you may have messed the points up though preventing boot. try booting it with the nor/prog switch set to prog so the red light goes out then power the system to see if it will boot, this might be a better way than more potentially damaging solder work.

the slim instal is so esy though if you messed them points yopu really need to give it to someone who knows what they are doing.

Try using a different .ecc file if your lighting up green under stock dash your soldering should be alright, double check the yellow wire just in case though. Flash the image with nandpro not jtag tool and see what happens.
