Hi all, I hope this isn't discussed somewhere already. I haven't been able to find anything useful...
The story is this. I have one X360 Trinity that I wanted to RGH3. I'm using picoflasher for NAND manipulation.
First I soldered wires on back side of motherboard like in this tutorial. Only difference is that I used "classic" 10k resistor in middle of kynar wire, like Mr Mario uses in his video tutorial, and not SMD one like in the tutorial.
After that I soldered wire header for NAND and read it (using "j-runner with extras") without issues. After that I choose glitch2 and RGH3, click "Create Xell" button and "Write Xell". No problems there, it flashes successfully.
Next step is to connect it to TV via HDMI, turn on and this is where my problem arrives. It turns on, center LED blinks green and that's about it. No image on TV, green LED just keeps blinking until I touch power button again and it turns off. I tried connecting DVD and that "solves" blinking LED, but there's still no image on screen.
If I flash original NAND back (with "retail" selected in j-runner, of course) and remove wires from back of the motherboard it boots normally as stock. With image and everything. So it's not bricked...
I've rechecked wire points, soldered them again and tried procedure from beginning and same thing happened. Checked for shorts on both RGH wires and NAND wires, everything checks out. Undid the procedure and XBox works fine as stock...
At this point I'm all out of ideas. Is this perhaps an issue with HDMI? That Xell doesn't output video over HDMI on Trinity consoles? Although I tried connecting LAN cable to it, but router didn't show any new DHCP devices, i.e. it didn't ask router for IP address so I guess it didn't actually work.
Is it perhaps resistor issue? That 10k is too much for this board? Although when I checked resistance of wire with resistor it came out at around 9k Ohm, so it's lower than 10k anyway...
