Cut the print (Trace) fit the resistor and still connect your D0 (Lframe) point underneath as before. this will now have a the resistor also connected to that point.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

tongue.gif) 0v with chip enabled.  So i guess its a problem with this chip.  Cut trace and getting a resistor tomorrow.

For what its worth to anyone, you can just cut the trace and use your box with modchip enabled and not worry about resistor, of course you cant play with the chip disabled.  Just im playing atm with it cut no resistor.  Plus if you press power to long, it just starts to frag (power cycles) then you get the chip on  dry.gif

also i measured voltages with no dvd or hdd plugged in if it makes any differnce, i doubt it would have..

... By Then, peeps that does a lot of Mods might have pinned the >comebacks< to

Having the DVD/harddrive in makes no difference.

Can you please post the X3 OS version, as I believe the modchip probably has the capability to fix this problem in a future OS release by pulsing the line rather than holding it low.

its absolute horse shit - certainley in X2.6 / X3 case anyway

duox2 is just some glorified cheapmod - no talent at all went into making it.


The response to this issue on the Team Xecuter forum. So I guess they mean that there is no problem.

This is not an answer. It's just like "shut up and don't ask questions". If it's not a problem, tell us why, because the evidence looks bad from here.

And either way, stand or fall on your own merits. Don't try to justify yourself just by saying someone else is bad.

Xecutor still has some answering to do.

Yeah its no kinda response to me either, just shrugging it off aswell IMO.

In response to catdog2, i am using latest X3 bios 1959.

Even if its true that its not a problem, though i measured 0v with chip on, it cant hurt doing this mod anyway, just to be safe. Thats what im doing anyway.

wink.gif ). We have here say on Smartxx v2 (not 100% sure) and they have not commented as of yet. Xecuter has a comment that in their opinion DuoX2 is "a glorified cheapmod" but will not confirm that their chips have no problem with this issue. Seems obvious to me what companies have it together and which have issues. Even if you, "the companies", haven't dealt with the problem at least keep us, "the buyers", in the loop let us know your working on resolving the issue. Don't shun your supporters or soon you will find you have none.

For those of you asking about xecuter and other chips where they have soldered to the alternative DO/LFRAME point on the BOTTOM of the motherboard, my understanding is that this point is actually the SAME point as the resistor in the mod diagram, but the resistor is shown on the TOP of the motherboard. Therefore your resistor is still in the correct circuit.

ie. you can leave your DO/LFRAME connection to the xecuter etc where it is and just do the mod as shown.

feel free to correct me if I'm wrong...

cheers to all you guyz for all the hard work and info  beerchug.gif

can i be any more clear ????

its bullshit marketing ploys by other people. TRUST ME !!!!

ffs you'd think you guys would take my word for it.

we pinch lframe for a few milliseconds with 0v - its absolutley not needed any more than that.

besides i have been testing x3's in xbox's for almost a year now - i have a clue ok ?

Are you sure you measured correctly?

It contradicts quite heavily with the above statement from Team Xecuter.

More work goes into DouX making it retail at $15 than an X3 retailing at $60. So who are we believing here, a guy in the thread that says he measured it at 0 volts or the guy that says he's been testing X3 for a year now when it's been released to retailers for less than 2 months.

I'd like to see someone measure this again and get back to us.

Team Xecuter always has that attitude.
Everything is viewed by them as an attack.

All they have to say is  " Ok. we're gona verify these findings" and go test it.
But instead they always choose to insult their end users..
Poor customer service time and time again with Team Xecuter
