hi im soldered the cable to my xbox.
Im conect te cable to the pc and nandpro don't recognise flash driver (probe with windowsxp and windows7)
I probe to run nandpro with xbox360 poweron. When I put the command "nandpro.exe lpt: -r16 backupnand.bin" xbox360 power off

I belive that exists interconnection with pc and xbox 360 but pc doesn't recognise the flash drive.

Any suggerence?

Possible im probe to resolder the cables to the xbox360. What is the alternative diode?
thanks

 You don't dump the NAND with the 360 power on - you should have the power cable connected, but the 360 should remain turned off. Don't know if this is your problem?

Also, if you're not using a switching diode on pin 11, then do so as this is more likely your problem.

Switching diode = 1N4148 or similar, with the black stripe on the diode towards the 360 motherboard. Also have you tried changing the LPT settings in your PC bios?

hi Im resoldered the nandumper.

nandpro 2b find flash driver and start reading nand correctly.

Flashconfig is 000120000, no read errors and reading ok. Is possible that I obtain a good nand image with this flashconfig?


Is my nandumper ready to read nand? Im using ECP parallel mode on Windows 7 64


I don't have a diode, tomorrow i go to buy 1.

Ok flashed newxell.bin and everytime I get this message  error: 202 programming block 243  no matter how many times I try. Checked all my connections, look good.

Console doesnt boot to blue screen to get cpu key.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Ok finally after some more soldering and adding the diodes I got my cpu key. But it appears the nand read might be bad. Looking at using a donor nand to fix this problem. Its been a frustrating project but its still fun.


Ok after some more fooling around i have come to the conclusion that I must of had a bad nand read as I cant seem to get the KV out. Guess this box is going in the garbage. Can I flash a donor nand to it to make it work as a dvd player at least?

Thanks

Yer add a diode, I had the same problem until I added a switching diode, the onlybad thing was I had to buy 100 as they didnt have any single ones.

I saw a post on someone who lost their kv.bin but had the CPU key handy - they were able to use another kv.bin to get it running with XBReboot. I can't find the post at the moment, but head over to XBH and search the forums there.

i was going to do this for the jtag and i planned on doing multiple boxes but then i realized i would have to have alot of rj45 cable to put into each box unless i wanted to resolder the wires

It's not an extra ground, just an alternative. Either will work fine.

Hey all.  I have about 4 wires soldered to the board and have decided that this is out of my league.  I have little to no soldering experience  Is there anyone who would like to take a look at it and finish the job?  I am willing to pay for these services.  If you are in the Orange County, CA area I can drop it off to you.  Thanks in advance.

That's a pretty good idea!. I think I'll make an attachment similar to that for my cable. Recently I've been dumping and flashing several 360s so this would make the process go a bit faster when it comes to soldering  biggrin.gif .

I'm going to add some links in the first post of the interesting variations people have been posting.
