xbox 360 Star Wars edition

[caver99]

I have just picked up one of the above but it freezes on boot or e79 error, is it possible to rip the r2d2 sounds from the nand and flash them into a replacement board so I can keep the system sounding the same?
plus what revision of board do these have?

Remove any attached storage devices (this includes the HDD) and see if the console boots.

Those sounds are stored on a separate chip - they can be changed with a JRP.

From what I have seen you wouldn't need to rip to off the old one but install a sonus qsb and speaker (if it doesn't have one ) and then flash the sounds to the sonus

no hdd attached and have tried the sync button but still freezes, starts the xbox swirl the freezers
googling then it may be something with the south bridge chip?

 

[caver99]

yeh I have thought of that, but was hoping to try and keep it looking stock or might just to a rjtag to it, was thinking that it might be possible as it's just an audio tone for start and eject

 

[scott1503]

You wouldn't need to rgh the console to flash custom sounds to it

 

[caver99]

can the sounds be ripped from the namd?

They aren't on the nand. Jrunner already has the star wars sounds you can flash to the console. Look up SONUS

In the case of a spelling error, I blame Tapatalk.

oh right cool, didn't know that

 

[caver99]

can the E79 be caused by a bad flash as well, if thats the case if i put a rgh chip in and rip nand out can this be rebuilt?

Is this box a virgin box or has it been modified in the past? Sounds like u will need to RGH it and rebuild a stable NAND.

 

[caver99]

yes it is a virgin never been soldered to, i got the whole thing with gta v for £20, only thing the lad would not let me have was the gold controller(damn) but if i can get this sorted world be nice sitting under my tv.
just need to work out what board it is and get the relevant parts for the rjtag (thats what they use now i think) and go from there.

Rgh it with a proto v2. Rjtag is for phats

There's a motherboard guide on the forum here mate, depending on board you may need extra hardware as later boxes need postfix adapter
Is the gta v original as if its a copy then chances are the box had been flashed

no, the lad who had the console bought a new console to replace this one and got gta v free so given it to me with this console.
still not sure what the board is i this console presuming its a corona but what revision i have not looked at yet.

once the nand has been read how do i go about rebuilding it.

Have you verfied its a virgin? Best have a look and see if it's been touched. I seen tons of "never been modded" consoles that are buggered from sh*tty atempts at modding.

 

[caver99]

yeh I am sure as the lad is an engineer for the company I work for and plays on live all the time and even when I mentioned to him about modding it for him said no not interested in modding, so I am 100% that it's a virgin console possible that it's a failed update or a south bridge chip problem, need some more thermal paste to reassemble and do some more testing
