Hello , I need some help. I inherited a e model 4gb corora with rgh2 xdk chip. I rewired it to upgrade it to rgh3. Ran flashdump.bin file through jrunner and converted it to rgh3. My problem is that it now only boots to xell via eject button. If I use the power button, I just the green light and it's black screened. I looked at jrunner and there are no blocks or errors. I unfortunately don't have the original dump. Just the dump I did when it was rgh2. I have been going at this for 2 days now with no avail. Any help is welcome. Ps. I have checked the wiring and it is good. I also don't have wb2k ram.

[@repairstudio4940]

I'm sorry I'm so late to reply...first check all connections and solder points and the HDMI. Then try switching to the older AV cables and attach that to the screen. I've seen that refused display via the HDMI but would on the AV cables after a flash ....weird but reflashing fixed that. Make certain when you selected the RGH3 glitch also in JRunner that it's doesn't have an outdated kernel selected by default ....this happened to me just the other day. Let me know how it goes and where your at, I'm glad to help when I'm available.

Hello, I really do not understand what to put in LDV Value. I am doing this because i have a bad block and cannot boot to XeLL. How can i count "f" if i cannot boot to Xell? or maybe LDV Value is shown in JRunner (on the right side) when i firstly load the nand.bin (with the bad block error)???

[@repairstudio4940]

Sorry I just saw this. You'll need a donor. Do you have the CPU key at all? Did you get any good nand dumps? If not you'll need a donor.

Help me mr i want your help. I have xbox360 JTAG/Rgh corona 4g. During update i switch off the console after turn on it's showing red light. Or but when turning on console from eject button it's opening in xell reloaded

[@repairstudio4940]

@@TextText-j1q check to see if it's overheating. Open the console. Then use a external fan, even a box fan will work to blow more air on the GPU under the internal fan and try powering it on. If the red light goes away you have a overheating issue and I'd recommend replacing the thermal paste and perhaps replacing the stock fan with one with better airflow. Let me know if this works, if not I can help you check for other faults 😊

@@TextText-j1q if the NAND is now corrupt but you've downloaded your dashboards you can rebuild the NAND and you should still be able to access your pre-installed dashboards and saves as they're stored on the hard drive. Follow these steps: 1)Backup Your Data: Before attempting any repairs, ensure you have a backup of your current NAND and any important data on your hard drive. 2) Re-flash the NAND: Use a hardware NAND flasher to re-flash your original or a working NAND dump. This can often resolve issues with corrupt NAND1. 3) Check for Bad Blocks: If there are bad blocks in the NAND, ensure they are remapped correctly during the flashing process1. 4) Restore Dashboards: After successfully repairing the NAND, your dashboards like Aurora should still be on your hard drive. If they are not accessible, you may need to reinstall them.

Was hoping this would fix mine but unfortunately nothinf changed. Rgh 3 trinity. Ive checked rhe wiring and made sure all solder points were good. Flashes fine but after system will turn on but no screen input. Fan starts up normal and runs but every 5 seconds it sound like the fan restarts.

Yes you need donor keys and JRunner has the tools built in to rebuild the NAND via a donor.

[@dimitrisking7590]

Hello Repair Studio. If I don't know the CPU key of my console (because I never managed to run XELL) but I know the LDV, can I use a donor with the donor's CPU key, or do I need to know my own CPU key? Also, should the creation be set to Glitch2 - SMC+ or Glitch2 - RGH3?

[@repairstudio4940]

@@dimitrisking7590 You can use a donor yes. Also as far as the glitch it depends on which one your doing. If your going the RGH3 route then choose that but if your using a chip you can use RGH glitch2 or glitch2-SMC....it breaks down like this: 1) RGH 1.2: This is often used for older Xbox 360 models (Phat consoles) and some Slim models. It’s known for its stability and relatively quick boot times. 2) RGH 2.0: This is used for newer Slim models and is necessary for consoles with a dashboard version higher than 14719. 3) S-RGH: This is a variation of RGH 2.0 that can offer faster boot times on some consoles. 4) Glitch2-SMC+ is a variant of the RGH 2.0 method, which uses an optimized SMC (System Management Controller) to improve boot times and stability. This method is particularly useful for certain Xbox 360 models, such as the Zephyr and Falcon, so best for older models in my experience. Zephyr's can be finicky so be aware if that's the model your working on. 🙂

[@dimitrisking7590]

@@repairstudio4940 Thank you very much for the quick response! I will use the RGH3 method. So, as you described, I don't need to know the CPU key of my console since I will be using the donor's CPU key. Therefore, I will follow your steps on my Jasper 256MB console with RGH3. Is there anything else I should be careful of for Jasper 256MB? If it works,I will post it on your channel! Thanks for your response!

[@repairstudio4940]

@@dimitrisking7590 Nah Jaspers and Falcons do quite well actually. I would make certain once you get a donor CPU key to try to find a key of a console the same year and model with the same disk drive and drive key, retrieve your drive key, or replace the drive with a donor drive and key otherwise your console may not read the disks. Let me know how it goes. 🙂

[@MichałRazukiewcz]

help !!!after this my dvd drive is not working

[@repairstudio4940]

Sorry I just saw this, I work often. This is common no worries... When you rebuild the NAND in JRunner for your RGH Xbox 360, the disk drive might stop working due to a mismatch between the drive’s firmware and the console’s NAND. Here’s what you can do to fix it: 1) Check the DVD Key: Ensure that the DVD key in the NAND matches the one in the drive. If they don’t match, the drive won’t work. You can find the DVD key in JRunner under the “Key Vault” tab. 2) Reflash the Drive: If the keys match but the drive still doesn’t work, you might need to reflash the drive’s firmware. Use a tool like JungleFlasher to reflash the drive with the correct firmware. 3) Verify Connections: Double-check all the physical connections between the drive and the motherboard. Sometimes, a loose cable can cause the drive to malfunction. 4) Rebuild NAND with Correct Files: Make sure you used the correct files when rebuilding the NAND. Incorrect or corrupted files can cause various issues, including problems with the disk drive. 5) Update Dashboard: Ensure your console’s dashboard is up to date. Sometimes, an outdated dashboard can cause compatibility issues with the drive. Sorry so late but hopes this helps....let me know if you need further help.

[@repairstudio4940]

Have you reflashed it? That'd be my first step as many issues like accidently choosing the wrong glitch (which affects alters the timing) causes issues. Different mod chips and the RGH3 using a pico affect timing but saving and backing up your nand dump is SO important so it's simple to just reflash. Sorry for the delayed reply. Hope this helps. 😎👍🏻
