do you short the bootloader with a jumper?

I received a damaged usb spi from xbox xperts and they are denying any reponsibility, and blaming me and/or the post office, and your paying $10 more to xbox xperts.  How many people already have a usb b male to usb a male cable/adapter, so then you have another $5 invested.  make it yourself or do diygadget


pure thanks for posting the new hex, is this the peek/poke?

The new hex is with the the peek/poke.

Now if the programmer did arrive damaged, why did you not contact them immediately?  

Did you already solder wires to the pads?  Does the dented programmer work at least?

I ordered a board from diygadget as well. But so far they are refusing to give me a tracking number, Its been 6 buisness days now. I asked them for a tracking number, and their reply was to wait 5-10 buisness days. I sent them another email today kindly asking for the tracking number again. I tried track my pak but its not tracking it.

i didn get a confimraiton email when the status was changed to 'completed' and no tracking number.

and well, there support hasn't responded to a question i asked 48 hours ago, lol.

I registered just to be nice to those asking about diygadgets shipping.

After ordering from diygadget, you will get an email from  pleasedonotreply@trac​kmypak.com with the shipping information. Trackmypak is a third party site, so you might have ignored it. As for the shipping, the free shipping is through Canada Post. In other words, the post office. If you're in the US, it will take 5-10 days to reach you. You can go to trackmypak's website and put in your information (email and when you ordered) and they'll resend their email to you. As for where diygadget is located, during the ordering process, it said that TIAO was located in Toronto. Paying with paypal, the recipient was listed as TIAO. On the trackmypak, TIAO was also listed as the seller. Could be owner, parent company, or whatever. They're also the name printed on the boards.

thanks for the detailed info.

so far i only received a confirmation email after my order status was changed to 'completed'.
there's an order# and a shipping# (is this the tracking number? it doesn't work on canada post site)

the trakcmypack thing fails for me when i enter my info , guess they didn't add my info for trackmypack.

I wrote a tutorial which you can download from here.

In the tutorial, there is a download link for the flashing software.

For the HEX file, get the updated v1.2b1 from here.  When you flash, choose the 12MHz.hex file instead of USB SPI HAX.hex.

For those of you in the USA who would like to receive your board faster, order it from xb0x-experts.

Thank-you. Good tutorial, looks very easy to follow. Will have my DIY board hopefully early next week and will try it out. Thanks again:)

This is what the shipper told me.

amyno: "Buyer purchased one on May 1, 2010.  Ordered another one last week and received it rather quickly.  On his initial email, about the defective product, he was asked for pictures to show USPS about the shipping damage.  He agreed to take pics so that I can file a complaint with the post office. Later on, posted this picture:  http://img443.images...clintharper.jpg and said that

[1:08pm] amyno: the USB post looked like it was stepped on. Judging from this picture, does it look like stepping on this board would cause a sharp dent on a USB port, about 1cm by 1cm?  I can guarantee you this would break off the board.  Then later, when asked again, stated that the shipping container (the usps flat rate priority box) was fine and that the damage occurred before shipping. Also, looking at

[1:08pm] amyno: the pic, you can see the extent of the damage on the USB port.  If you received something like this, would you not notice the damage, just leave it as is, and then email us first? This guy just accepted the damage, soldered the wires, hooked it up, and then complains that it does not work.  Basically, what he did is purchase one before, it was damaged it up, ordered another one, and now is

[1:08pm] amyno: blaming us for it.  There is no way anyone not notice that USB port being damaged that badly, especially when it was packaged by hand.  If it somehow was damaged, the receiver would notice this and bring it up to our attention.  His story does not add up at all.  Board was fine before it was shipped, fine during shipping, as stated by him that he box was not damaged."

Hi, revengeismyfury:

There is no tracking number so you don't receive one.  A tracking number would cost additional $15+, so we decided to offer free shipping without tracking number to keep the price low.  You will receive it very shortly.

Hi, NinjaOptimus:

You should have received an email telling your order was shipped, however, yes, there is no tracking number, but you have nothing to worry about that at all.  Check you spam folder, also we update paypal status as well.

Regarding the ticket, can you tell me your ticker number?  We check the ticket daily between 6-8AM EST (except weekends/holidays), so I don't think we would let a ticket stay in open status for more than 48 hours in weekdays.  But, please tell me your ticket number so I can check it for you.

Where are you located?  If you are not in USA or CANADA, in order to have a tracking number the cost is additional $60. (by air).  

Usually to UK is even faster than to any Canadian locations, We have customers in UK usually get their item in 2-3 days.  To US is usually around 4-5 days, but it is not always the case, so to be on the safe side, we always tell customers to wait 5-10 business days.

The trackmypak.com is trick, don't forget about the date range, but you should have nothing to worry about as we ship daily (in another word, your order is shipped within 24 hours after your payment), except Saturdays and Sundays.  Sometimes we do ship on Saturdays.

Again, I am here to help you, if you have any issues please let me know, again the best option to obtain support is via ticket system, as we can keep tracking the history of the problem.

I should also mention our 1 year full warranty, anything goes wrong within one year, we will replace it with a brand new one for you.


BTW, this is our store reviews on reseller ratings:

We don't have many reviews but at least it gives you some information about our service.  

Thanks!

[NineT9mustang]

Negrutzu, yes PSN game started to get released today (ex: PixelJunkie games)

[revengeismyfury]

thanks for letting me know that xbox360 player. Thats understandable that there is no tracking# now. It kinda would have been nice if I had known that there was no tracking number though, because I would have had it sent to another address.

My mailbox outside my house doesnt stay shut, and chances are when it gets here no one will mess with it, but I'm always paranoid when it comes to stuff like that.

Hi, revengeismyfury:

thanks for your understanding, the item is very small, so it won't stick out the mailbox :-)

Hi, Mike71:

You probably ordered on Tuesday so we shipped it on Wednesday morning.  I would think within 5 days.

Thanks!
