I bet, i thought something was wrong aswell when i first encountered it... but, they all worked fine, and to the best of my knowledge, none has returned to the store i used to work in saying they had any issues with the console, they asked about the sound... but that's it...

Thank you, I am figuring you have done many more than I ever will.

It's somewhat normal, it doesn't always happen but... i've had it on numerous consoles, all working fine... it can also happen on trinity consoles...

I usually called it crickets in the console

Thank you, this is the first console that has happened to me on. Kind of worried me a little bit.

I have recently modded my first Corona. It was the 4gb v6. I am not having issues with booting, it works on first to second glitch every time. My issue is when the reset gets a pulse from the ACE chip, the xbox makes a high pitched sound like an old tube TV. I don't know if this is normal of the Corona, or if my reset wire may be hitting another contact. I just know I don't like high pitched sounds coming from my electronics, never been a good thing.

You might want to try changing your timing file in your mod chip.

Go into your settings on Aurora and see if you have an IP address starting with your routers standard. (192.168.0.? , 192.168.1.?) should be somewhere in that neighborhood, depending on your router brand.

I take it you are using a thumb drive? I haven't seen a 32gb hdd in a long time. If you can get the drive to read properly on a computer, try backing it up and re-formatting it on the Xbox. Put your stuff back on the drive and check your file explorer in FSD to make sure your content is visible to your Xbox. 

Does your external drive show up under storage?

Let me make sure I've got this straight, your games on an external gfs disappeared and your games on the internal drive are showing up, but loading the wrong game when you run them?

I meant dashboard. Aurora, FSD 3, or are your games all GOD format loading off the main dashboard?

You didn't update from XBL, did you?

What dash are you using? Is the HDD 32 gb, or is that just what the Xbox is showing? 

If you're console isn't connected to the internet, make sure the date is set.

I guess I will make an sd card like everyone else, I had to disconnect the reader before I could start the console. I soldered everything back in, after getting my cpu key. Now it freezes up trying to write back to the nand.

 

 

Edit:

Everything is done and working fine now. I was informed that the card reader has issues reading and writing, that is why she gave that one to me. I unplugged it and plugged it back in a few times and it worked. Thank you for your help.

ok, thank you for your quick response. i got the nand dumped. i did one full dump and 2 normal dumps. i will hook up my ace chip when i get home tonight. i should have done that before i did the nand, but we all learn from our mistakes. sorry about being so cautious on this, but this is my first Corona board.

I also don't know if the adapter will be drawing power from the NAND. This is the first one of these 4gb NAND systems I have ran into. It is a 360e console, I think a Corona v6. I read on many of these Corona's, you have to bridge a couple of the resistor points as well, would that be the case here?

I read about grounding the onboard crystal to read the nand, would I leave it grounded out when I start the system? I know you don't normally, but the USB sd card reader has a crystal on it. I don't know if it will mess anything up having the onboard crystal and the USB adapter crystal connected at the same time. 

I built my own Corona 4gb nand reader by soldering the wires directly to a USB sd card reader. I just wanted to make sure I am not going to run into a major problems when I boot the console to get the CPU key. The USB reader will still have to be hooked to the console's mobo, but I will have it unplugged from the USB on the computer? 

My roms are running black screen, can I not start snes360 from Araura?

I ran my pll wire through the hole in the board, ran rst  up the back of the board near the fan. I loaded 18 timing file, worked like a charm. I finally got this stubborn system to boot xell. Thanks for your support everybody.

I soldered the wires back, not to the glitcher, wouldn't boot dash again. rerouted my wires, dash boots fine. Either the EMF is strong on this console, or pll and rst are interfaring with each other. I will find a new perminent root and try again.

Sorry guys, my soldering obviously still wasn't right. My original nand wouldn't fully boot until I pulled all of my wiring. I will have to rewire the whole thing. I must have had a short somewhere. I will do so, when I return from work, and actually get some sleep first. Thank you for everyone's help, sorry about the lack of knowledge. Until a couple of months ago, I modded the drives. I didn't start doing RGH until I bought my XBOX One. I build my own circuits, so this soldering job is really hurting my pride. lol

My dashboard is 17489.

and you still havent specified which kernel you are using.. lol

Sorry, I thought the kernel updates along with your dashboard. I will write nand back and check.

and it depends on the bootloader.. i suggest you do some research.. RGH1.2 is based off RGH2 methods.. RGH1.0 will get you instaboots on dash's 13599 and below.. 14170+ if i recall correctly the bootloaders changed.. and split CB's, this is when RGH2.0 came out..

been a damn long time since i've done a RGH1.0 install so yeah EXACT dash versions might be off.. lol

I just updated this console about 2 months ago, so we should be good there.

I just ran an ohm meter from my CR to the alternate post and clk points, they are making a good connection. Does anybody know an alternate pll and eat point I can test?

Yes, it means it doesn't get what it needs to start counting to the glitch... or, you have a bootloader compatible with rgh 1.0 which would make rgh 1.2 not work iirc

I thought all phat consoles could take RGH 1.2.
