X3 install on 1.6. One blule light on chip and no more

[bjt63]

Hi Guys.. I have a crystal xbox 1.6 ( I don't know if its 1.6b?) anyway
I amd doing the pin header install for the X3 http://www.teamxecuter.com/x3/tutorials/x3pin16.htm

and on boot it continues to go to the MS bios..
The front switch panel is dead and I only get one light on the chip.

For starteters I'm guessing that its a solderinging issue.. but I have check and resoldered the pin headers at least three times..? Can someone please assist ..

I take it I need to get the 3.3v led light up first.. which pin of the LPC powers it?

Any help appreciated.. :lol:

Last night I had the same problem. It was a D0 problem for me. I resoldered my D0 connections and it fixed that problem. Dunno if its your problem or not. Just an FYI

bjt63, i had this same problem. except my xbox wasnt a 1.6, it was a 1.4...but anyway, my problem was that the external switch was causing a short because it was faulty. are you sure its plugged in ALL the way?

i unplugged the sxternal mod and it worked like a charm.

the lpc pinds are 15 and 9 that give out a 3.3v.

bjt63 u have to burn a wire fron pin 9 to pin 15...and also check if all the pinheader pins r all at the same height/level so 3.3v is properly connected...did u also solder n attach the 5v connecter as well?...check these...good luck

the instructions dont' show the 5v wire plugged for the 1.6, but it does need to be connected to the X3. Also, be sure you pulled pin #6 from the pin header. One last thing, if you're new to this soldering thing, you may have to look really close or with a magnifying glass to make sure you didn't accidently use too much soldering lead on the tiny points.

Thanks for your help guys..

But I am still no further advanced
- yes I have resoldered the D0 connection ( about three times now )
- I have tried a jumper from 9 to 15
- yes i have pulled pin 6 as in the instructions and yes I have used the alter 5v line ( red wire in the instrcutions) I know this works cause if I pull it the one blue light on the chip goes off so I am getting 5V to the chip.
- I have also disconnected the external switch and its still no go

I have some exerpeience with soldering and I inspected all the points with a mangnifying glass I can see no shorts etc between joints..

Any other suggestions?

my last guess would be that the LPC rebuild was done wrong...I dont think that would have to do with a 3.3v connection, BUT you seem to be running out of ideas here...My only 2 ideas now would be resoldering (i know, i know...'but i already did blah blah blah') but do it again. it won't hurt...unless you're really bad at it.....uh.....*ahem* ANYWAY, or try the LPC rebuild again...I'm sorry i can't give any other advice..good luck.

 

[spyman]

the prob is pin 15

Thanks Guys..
you were right it was pin 15.. I actually pulled the LPC and resolderied it in.. now the thing boots to the bios !!

Your all legends :!:

Help Flashing To LT

2day i am going to flash my liteon 83850C V1 drive to LT.. So, thought i could get some help from you guys I previously flashed to IX1.61

I got my drive's original dummy.bin, Inquiry.bin, Identify.bin, Serial.bin and Key.bin...

Now should i again repeat the "Obtaining Dummy.bin" process or i can directly flash the drive to original liteon firmware for updating?

Steps :

1. Open source firmware - select dummy.bin (that i extracted previously when flashing to IX1.61)
2. Open target firmware - Select original firmware from LT folder
3. Manual Spoofing
4. liteon erase
5. write
6. Outro / ATA Reset
7. Update the console from USB stick.

8. Flash to LT (same step except selecting IX LT firmware as target)

Am i right? Or iam missing something? Anything else tat i should take care off? Plz help me.

TY

Re: Help Flashing To LT

you got to flash back to stock before you go to Lt. FYI.

Yeah it says that in step #2. Way to read.
