RGH STBY_CLK messed up question

[esbmaepo]

Hi

Would a messed up STBY_CLK point on a Slim prevent it to boot or even reading NAND?

can you post of a pic , what do you mean by messed up ?

By the way if its just the solder pad and it still turning on then just solder it to the left side of the resistor CAREFULLY !!! too much heat and the resitor will come off and then you are in a world of sh*t .

If the pad is gone it wont stop it reading the nand , thats a bad flash or a screwed spi

Well actually a friend of mine tried to do a RGH on his brandnew Slim. He made a poor job of it and has left it to me to sort it out.

Both pads are ripped of but thats not so difficult to repair.

NAND chip is flashed with correct .ecc file (so he claims!)

I have removed all wiring

The problem is that I cannot read the NAND (flash controller not detected) and reflash to original nand file.

There is full power in the motherboard including the NAND chip

how can you be sure that the nand is getting power? usually if these points get messed up too badley it will not power on??

On standby power you can measure 3.3 v on pin 12 and 37 on NAND chip.

The console wont boot up, it just make a "ping" sound, but there is standby power. But can the missing pads on STBY_CLK really be the reason why I can't read nand?

you will need to to find the trace to the pad and join it to the resitor on the right hadn side then

Its working again

Joined trace line to resistor and now its booting again.

Interesting that this damage prevented me from reading NAND.

well done, Im pleased that its working again for you.

When this happens the NAND does not get any power, which is why you were unable to read / write to it.

No, the NAND did get power, I could measure that with a multimeter. Thats why I couldn't understand that I couldn't read it.

The damage must have blocked connections from nand-reading-wiring to NAND.

Anyway its working so I'm happy

Good thing that there are alternative points for RGH wiring.

This worked for me also
