RGH vs. JTAG: Exploring the differences

[@fredwardproductions9510]

I am a proud owner of a JTAG console just recently upgraded to a 8TB internal SSD and filled my entire XBLA and 360 game library. The fan runs quite and boot times are insanely quick

[@TheModSmith]

Wow! An original JTAG, that's awesome!

[@RaysGamingChannel2003]

I own a RGH 3 I’m a proud owner of RGH 3

[@lablona]

Hey man , i think you have information about consoles., Can you please tell me can my xbox 360 e 2015 can be jtag or rgh ?

[@superstar64]

I have a JTAGable Xenon, found it in a random lot of consoles and I got super lucky. Sadly, it has a bad GPU that needs to be replaced, and that'll take a BGA station. I will say though, RGH 3 is almost like the new JTAG, with only needing two wires and a flashed NAND.

So much respect for doing this vid on 2024! Please don't stop the content!!!🎉

[@DaedalianAbilon]

I remember way back like 13 years ago I was like 15 and made my first jtag. good times

[@yadszero]

Hi, is it possible to install jtag or rgh in an old xbox 360 in which I have already flashed the CD-ROM drive many years ago without risking any problem or bug ? Thanks

[@guybulte4004]

Yes can be done

[@guybulte4004]

Yes

[@ButWhyMe...]

That was a pretty high quality video! I did not know JTAGing was a rarity! However, I do want to know - are there any differences beyond the installation and the boot time?

[@TheModSmith]

Once the console encounters a glitch, the outcome is identical regardless of the method. The boot time varies depending on the RGH version being compared to JTAG. RGH3 consistently provides instant boots, while older versions like RGH2 may require tuning due to timing file adjustments specific to the console, as they utilize glitch chips. However, even chip installations can achieve instant boots. Both RGH3 and JTAG are automatically equipped with these fast boot times.

[@Callieforniiaa]

@@xvii7718Trinity. Corona is know to have issues. I got my RGH 3 from Console warehouse. But their stock usually sells out really quick. Don’t get a Corona if you play rhythm games. Coronas have sync issues. Just go Trinity. Console warehouse lets you ask for a Trinity if you want. That’s what I did. Because I do mostly want it for guitar hero unlisted DLC

[@Harmonic14]

@@xvii7718 Trinity or a phat Jasper. Coronas are fine if they aren't 4GB models, but the 4GB NANDs have failed in some consoles now, so unless the modded NAND has disabled the 4GB storage, it's at risk of failing

[@nickdemarino5391]

i currently have a rgh and am still learning how to do certain things i have xbguard and a stealth server so adding menus isn’t as easy imo but adding games is very easy especially with ftp on aurora

[@lima-9618]

im still a bit confused on if jtags HAVE to be on 7371 or older or can they use the metro dashes aswell?

[@TheModSmith]

JTAG consoles have to be on 7371 or below, that doesn’t include the metro dash.

[@lima-9618]

@@TheModSmith thank you

[@Willy-tt6ez]

One of the reasons ive put off modding my older 360 is because I cant decide which method to use, and now of course there is picoflash. What I do know from experience is the newest method is king since like you said developers rarely support older formats.

[@TheModSmith]

I recommend RGH3 as it’s the latest and fastest mod, although it’s still difficult to perform if you don’t have much soldering experience. I also do send-in services here in the UK, so let me know if you need a hand!

[@Notpoop906]

I still have my jasper JTAG. I want to fire it up and play around with it again but it's been like 10 years since I've touched it so I'm scared that I'm gonna make a mistake and brick it while trying to update shit 😂It's been too long

[@TheModSmith]

If you want to update it then you can make a new updflash.bin file with JRunner and flash it via xell. There are also methods to use the Simple 360 NAND Flasher homebrew app. Just don't update via Xbox Live, as doing so will flash a "retail" image which your JTAG cannot run.

[@jjhack3r]

Every RGH3 console I've ever hacked has booted as quick as stock. No downside tbh

[@JayB15]

Do you mod consoles yourself? I really would like my Xbox 360 to get modded so I can play NCAA 14!!🙏🏾

[@dachey]

Thank you so much man, I have some questions for you. Can I play xbox live on my xbox 360 slim, in xexmenu I disabled dns block and now I can use xbox live but I'm afraid of getting banned and I think I won't be able to play rgh offline games again. That was the first question and the next is: Is Aurora better than Freestyle 3? I have freestyle and I'm thinking of installing aurora because I need to use filezila on my pc to download some games on my xbox 360?

[@TheModSmith]

I prefer Aurora for cosmetics and easy of use. You can play Xbox Live if you install a stealth server, there are many free ones. If you don’t have a stealth server then you will get banned, so enable liveblock in dashlaunch until you get one.

[@AyyEmbo]

Would you know where the best place to buy a rgh from? (Want some personal requests too)

[@TheModSmith]

I’ll have some consoles listed soon on eBay soon, I’ll be getting back into selling a bit more in the next few weeks.

You can check in Dashlaunch at the bottom right, It’ll say “Type:” then either Glitch (which is RGH) or JTAG.

[@JosephPBD]

i have a Jasper signed as 2009 but i have the latest dashboard... now the fact that i updated the dashboard patched the vulnerability or i can do the RGH?

[@TheModSmith]

RGH works on all dashboard versions, the thing you'll want to check is your motherboard model which obviously for you is Jasper.

Hello. Can I still do something with my xbox 360 that has already been dumped or just sell it for xbox parts? Thank you

[@TheModSmith]

Xbox 360 Slims cannot be JTAG’d, they need an RGH mod. If the eject button doesn’t show Xell then it’s most likely not modded.

[@TheModSmith]

RGH3 Trinity is the one I like the most, but all consoles can be prone to issues especially with heavy playtimes.

[@PlayingUnfairly]

Is a J-Tag still worth owning? I’m told you can’t play games past a specific dashboard update and can’t use it online. Also your discord link expired, try making a permanent one.

[@TheModSmith]

JTAG and RGH are the same end result and you can update them to any dashboard with online compatibility.

[@PlayingUnfairly]

@@TheModSmith okay thanks for the clarification!

[@electricbill1778]

Wow, your comments about RGH haven't aged well. With the new RGH 3, boots don't repeat any more to put a stress on anything. Amazing how much difference a few months can make. I'm guessing you might want to revisit this one :)

[@TheModSmith]

RGH3 was out about a year before I made this video. RGH3 can still take multiple boot attempts before booting, and some consoles straight up refuse to boot using it and require modchip based installs such as RGH 1.2 v2.

There almost the same only difference is u wouldn’t be able to run a blades Dash, but u can use Ciyper on a RGH 1.2 and it’s the best UI iv ever used from Modding my consoles iv had the same Kv for 8months “I mod for fun not to shit on people on COD lol” if there playing legit on a 360 they might not be able to afford to get a one so I use it for XMBC, FTP from Pc to Console, I just Go on GTA and Mess around like Spawn Random things if I do play there was a time I used aimbot 24/7 but I don’t need it as I’m a good player anyway it’s all for Fun “Free Games, Programs ect” iv owned many along with 3.55 ps3 good old Rebug! I wish I never sold my Jtag Falcon I grew out of it but not wanna mess around and shit I love it I have my Wii modded, Phone Rooted, PsP Vita JB I Literally modded anything I could get my hands on 😂 loved having control of Microsoft instead of them controlling me I wish we could mod on New Gen imagine Modding in 8k @ 120hz on COD would be insane! Eventually they will die out so anyone wanting one I suggest u buy one Soon. “You can get a Trinity or Corona” which is the Newest 360 Slim for £40 console only With Psu & 1tb HDD like 80/100 Jtags are a Solid 150/200 console only. Hopefully u make a discord as be good if we could talk together as Modders. ☮️😎

[@Sonic-gy7kq]

Bro JTAG is not supperior when it is 1. more steps 2. more expensive 3. and vastly less supported than RGH. It just boots first time, which any good modern RGH will do the same.

[@SoraGremory0121]

I’ve always heard JTAG is better than RGH based on the fact you need to buy stealth for RGH and not JTAG

[@TheModSmith]

That’s not true at all, the end result is exactly the same and both require stealth servers for online activity.

[@SoraGremory0121]
