Did you look to see if they all really looked like 1 cycle boots?
When my falcon was set to 1.2v, EVERYTHING said 1 cycle, but some would take 4-5 blinks.

I'm pretty sure the "green debug light" just lets you know the glitching is in progress (not the actual cycles), When I power on my console the light blinks once very briefly and then right after the 1st full blink my console boots...3 to 4 seconds consistently. I watched the Rater the entire time , no post fails or choke ups. In my honest opinion, I think the console boots faster than when it was running stock. Check the ribbon cable and make sure everything is seated properly, I had some better outcomes after aligning the ribbon as straight as possible. There is still a little movement even once the ribbon is clamped down so its always good to double check it from time to time.

ok, congrats then.
I had the 1.2v going and alt-tabbed out to do something, came back and saw the 1's.
ahhh yea! Then I watched the console, and the post would keep cycling through, but the count wasnt going up.
Same when I set resistance to 0, I saw a bunch of 1's and then noticed 1033..

I've been working like crazy, but I finally got a chance to test this Falcon out with the JRP and am very very pleased with the results!! I knew I was at least going to get a WTF! Rating, but I don't think you can get any better than a PERFECT 10!!

After about 3 hours of Frustration and doubt, I finally nailed it!! So Far ... So Good.

Anybody with a Falcon mobo and your getting RROD/3 Red Lights should try these settings, as they have worked in my favor.

2-way switch on

3-way switch in the middle

Jumper set to 470

Aud_Clamp Install (1-3 Jumpers soldered)

R-Jtag Chip Voltage set to default

Dip Switches: 2 and 7 ON only = Instant Boots every time/ Very stable
1 and 7 ON only = Instant Boots- 10 second/ Unstable
3 and 7 On only = 5-10 Second Boots/ Very Unstable
4 and 7 ON only = RROD after about 7 cycles
5 and 7 On only = RROD on boot or within 2 cycles
6 and 7 On only = RROD constant on boot





Also, if you have not Written a new hacked nand to go with the R-Jtag you need to do so - WNYConsoles helped me out with that bit of info.

I already had my CPU Key and didn't need to boot Xell. In the Xebuild options ,make sure you tick "Jtag" and "AUD Clamp" if you went that route.

Next, Be sure you have your orig nand dump in the source and your keys also. Now click "create image". After your image (updflash.bin)

is built locate it and load it into the source and click "Write Nand". You should be ready to go at this point. Good Luck!!

Thanks Again Tx, you rock!!
I wish I would have seen this thread sooner, i spent hours testing out my falcon only to come up with the same results.
