Hello guys, i really needhelp on this PHAT.
First i will tell you what i have done:
-Dumped flash with progskeet 8 dump times.
-Flashed ecc with progskeet too.
-Mounted CR without QSB.
-Tryed and not worked. 3 RROD
-Destroyed HANA by resoldering, xbox didn't want to turn up.
-Found that resistor was dead so baypassed it with bridge, flashed original dump(no xell) and worked(without vcc on CR).
-As i now that resistor is about 33Ohm and to make the glitch i had to reinstall it. So i bought a 33Ohm resistor installed before original one(like this http://colddot.nl/xboximg/IMG_20111130_171029.jpg), orange cable between after the resistor but before the cable.
-Reflashed ecc with 68nf capacitor to PLL-GND
Xell booted!!!
-USB with modded kernel inserted, reboot.... Xell not started again.
-Flashed again with progskeet with new kernel
-Not booting.
-Tryed CPU_RST cable with/without 68nF(in line) not working
-Tryed (front spot)CPU_RST cable with/without 68nF(in line) not working
-Tryed CPU_RST (2)longer cable (33 and 50cm) with/without 68nF not working
-Back to normal and tried PLL with CR-22kresistor-capacitor68nf(one side to gnd)-cabletoPLL
NOTHING WORK.

So the only thing that changed by adding capacitor even if only in pll is the geen blink that is longer(2-3 secs) instead just a blink without.



So what to do? is the resistor to the hana chip useless/wrong(watch attachment)? Better using stby other spot? reflash ecc-image?
Thanks anyone.

Chances are its just the fact it`s a bloody zephyr . But the first thing to do is spend at LEAST 30 MINS going over ALL of the solder points and make them as NEAT as poss and make sure that they aren`t touching anything other than what they should . If thats all good move onto the software , however my bet is on it`s being a zephyr ,, they suck for this !

Yes i used that conf. Anyway posting photoes.
And yes resistor is 33ohm and working.

Well I'm not sure what you have going with all resistors and caps, I've done a couple of Zephyr's and never used any caps, I'm not sure if it's really recommended the way you did it and your soldering need some work, the blue connection seems like you could have burnt the trace. Things are getting too hot, it shouldn't take more than a half second to hit those points, that's how you lifted that pad. I would start by cleaning everything and check each point for cross bridging and continuity, it's really messy

Edit: Why a resistor on CPU_RST?

It's hot glue. That got burnt :)
I read here about cap on rst and i tryed.

Here i found cap on D

So rst checked and ok. Pll checked and ok. Post-out cannot check if spot works but cable do. Stby checked and resistor works. Maybe 33ohm is not good even if others are 33. Gnd/vcc... Well.. Maybe 680pf are too much for pll?

Dude , just quit before you mess up completely . Your soldering skills aren`t up to this . You already messed up the resistor at point b , if you keep on you WILL have a dead console . You dont have the skills to do this hack , either send it to someone that does , or stick to buying games before you have no console at all .

I asked a friend professional to check my soldering, he said that wasn't really good, but it should work. So the problem isn't the soldering. Anyway i got xell one time.

So i'm not touching anything anymore, anyway isn't working. What to change? Resistor in B?
Caps? http://team-xecuter.com/forums/showthread.php?t=75045&page=13
there someone says 50nF other 100nF, i'm going to buy both to check. An maybe lower the resistor from 33ohm to 29ohm as somenoe did.
