shawn24589 5 Posted March 24, 2016 Hi, I have a Jasper trinity 16mb XBOX 360 s. Dumped the nand successfully. Flipped over tho board and went to solder the yellow wire (point c in diagram) and had a terrible time. The point disappeared on me. It's just a black spot now. I tried cleaning with alcohol and used plenty flux and just can't get any solder to grab the point that was once there. Is there an alternative point I can use?

Swizzy 2083 Posted March 24, 2016 You cannot have a "Jasper Trinity 16MB", Jasper is the last model before Slim (last phat motherboard) and Trinity is the first Slim... Based on the image you posted, it looks like you ripped of the POST_OUT point, it won't matter for the console itself, but your chip won't work without it... you should probably ask someone that knows how to solder to help you with the soldering, the image you took is very blurry aswell which means it's hard to really see anything...

Swizzy 2083 Posted March 24, 2016 Thanks a lot swizzy! The alternate point is on the other side, and involves scraping off the green stuff, not sure what it's called in english, but... you essentially need to expose the trace underneath and solder to that, the Corona Post Fix adapter should work aswell... alot easier to solder to, but... i wouldn't trust your soldering skills for CPU_RST for instance which is actually even harder to do... and f*ing that up means you gotta repair the trace aswell You need to clean away the flux, personally i don't use any flux at all, i just heat up the points a short time and use solder with flux in it, no extra needed...

shawn24589 5 Posted March 25, 2016 Found the alternate post for c. Thanks a ton for the direction 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swizzy 2083 Posted March 25, 2016 Found the alternate post for c. Thanks a ton for the direction Again, i strongly advice you to find someone experienced with soldering to help you with this one, mess this one up and your console might be extremely hard to fix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shawn24589 5 Posted March 25, 2016 Understood. Think it's possible to use a corona postfix adapter qsb and would I have to solder any points on that qsb as if I was anchoring down the qsb? Or just solder the post near the point that slides under the chip and wala!? Or is that just silly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swizzy 2083 Posted March 25, 2016 I believe so yes, afaik the cpu's have the same pinout for that bit... you don't have to solder to anchor it, you can use non-conductive tape to hold it in place aswell if you want... there's still cpu_rst to solder aswell, which is the D point, that one is usually harder to solder, and messing up that makes the console not boot, i can fix such mishaps... but... i rather avoid it by recommending those that clearly have no idea what they're doing to leave it to someone that does...

felida 1653 Posted March 26, 2016 The alternate point is on the other side, and involves scraping off the green stuff, not sure what it's called in english.. lol.. it is fiberglass mate.. there is a clear cover which is called solder mask.. there are a few "trade names" also..

shawn24589 5 Posted March 28, 2016 Weird. So in one tutorial. It tells me the blue wire should run to post ft4r2. But on sins HD ultimate tuturiol for trinity it says "The blue wire (CPU_RST) goes to C5R11 for optimum results". So confused Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So confused They're the same point, it's just FT4R2 is easier to access, and for me, that works much better then C5R11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
