Will this Jtag wiring work on a Xenon...

[churchwin88]

True, but what I'm worried about is the mix between a QSB and falcon wires...or I'm just paranoid about it.

The missing QSB shows 4 solder connections while I only have two wires...

The wired method is only two wires with diodes

 

[churchwin88]

No go on the jumper either.

 

[frazzeld]

Its got to be your connections on the QSB

 

[churchwin88]

It looks like they are all good...

Are the two wires soldered in the right spots? They don't need to be swapped or anything?


EDIT: Does the Jtag portion have anything to do with writing xellous? I'd assume so but don't want to get distracted on the Jtag part if the Nand is the problem.

No go. I still get the E79 error. Even tried at 0 and still got the E79.

Can I write my original nand back or do I need the CPU key?


I think I'm going to have my buddy solder the other QSB on. I don't like using the two wires since that is supposed to be for Falcon motherboards and not Xenons.

Why do you think the QSBs will make things better? I never use QSBs, i used them once or twice on my first couple of Jtags but soldering the wires directly to the board is much easier and cleaner, not to mention a lot cheaper.

I wasn't sure since I'm using a mix of two different ways. It just seems easier if it was either all wires or QSB used.


EDIT: Do I need my CPU key to write my nand back or should I just wait to have my friend check the soldering?

Its not 2 different ways though, QSBs just simply sit between the wires and board, its the NAND QSBs that make it easier for some because you can just plug the NAND X back in to the boards without haveing to do any more soldering.

The CPU key is used for creating freeboot, it has nothing to do with your original NAND so you can just go ahead and reflash if you want.

I would just leave it for now if i were you, just let someone that can actually solder take a look. Those QSBs don't look like they have been done by someone with soldering skills so just be careful who you let loose on it.

I just want to say thanks for everyone who has been helping me! I really appreciate it. This is why I keep coming to this forum for reading and knowledge.

Well, I had someone on the forums who performs services do it...but I'm not going to name names because I feel that is disrespectful.

My friend has been doing soldering for over 15 years so I trust him but he lives like 45 mins away so I just had this person do it since they would already have it for the reball.

another thing you could of checked was if you were using hdmi or c-cables.. i know mine will throw out the E78 if hdmi is is but i just reboot until it works

 

[churchwin88]

Well, I'm back with an update but with a different problem now.

So, I finally got my friend on Saturday night to fix the soldering and we got all the files we needed through xellous. We had it up and running put some emulators on it and copied some games to the hdd...everything worked.

Then come Sunday afternoon. I go to turn it on and back to the E79/1 Red Ring. So, he talks me though re-flashing everything and we are up and running again(for the time being).

My brother was playing an Xbox1 game for about 3-4 hours last night on it and everything was working fine then I just tried it again a few minutes ago and back to the damn E79 again.

I've tried moving the settings from 0 to 330 and 470 and still nothing. Do you think it could be a soldering problem?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your time!
