Next time ya open up the box, check all the pins to see if any can be pushed down. I've installed several dozen pinheaders. About half of them failed this test on at least one pin, even though the soldering looked perfect. Any pins that can be pushed down need to be resoldered to ensure reliability.

i had sum job sorting it i had to end up cutting away the plastic from header putting the pin in soldering on top of board and bridged the pin to cap on board i wont be flashing anymore chips in this box think i'll buy a programmer for any future 16.b xbox's

bit of a bummer ya cant flash the 2.6 in the 16.b xbox

u think a fiber pen would help get a better connection i always prefared the wire installs but i read there not a good idea with 16's and 16'b's
