No, I haven't. I'll try messing with the diode and wires and post back with my results.

DONT turn the diodde, the black ring MUST point towards towards the motherboard. Perhaps you've damaged the xbox motherboard somehow?. I had a box that started working and then just gave up, nothing could get it to talk over LPT. My solution was to install an infectus which has worked perfectly, downside is (partial) flashing is difficult with the infectus, but lflash has solved that small problem

You could always do the XD nand hack if you don't want an infectus (i had all the bits but decided to just get an infectus in there instead)

I ended up here, and have now solved my problem, I was using a printer cable to extend my connection and it must not have been straight through, connecting directly solved the issue, now dumping. I'm going to guess normal printer cables are not straight through, probably only extension and switch cables.

I have been using a computer made in 2001 with XP on it with NandPro and I have gotten a few bad flashconfigs but after repeatedly trying I sooner or later got the right one, but I did get a flash controller every time. I guess it depends on the hardware being used.

Also I used a db-25 serial female plug with a belken db-25 serial male to male cord to plug into the back of my computer's lpt port, and I added the 100 ohm resistors to the given ports just to make sure.

I try to explain how i resolved my problem.

First, my problem is not the cable too long, or use of ltp/usb (both work for now), or diode, or bad resistance.

Because my soldering skill are very low, i soldered the wires in the bottom of the motherboard (so, the wire cross the motherboard, from the top to bottom).

My error: i check with multimeter from olimex/ltp to soldering point (on soldering iron).

So i tested all point from olimex/ltp to next point after J1DX/J1BX (so, i followed each track). And i see that track of J1D2.3 is on the top of the motherboard. So multimeter from olimex to J1D2.3 Soldering Point (on bottom of the board), i take 0. But Multimeter from olimex to "somewhere on the J1D2.3 track", i take 1

just added a drip of iron on the top, on J1D2.3, now all is ok !
