In this video, Josh demonstrates the importance of choosing a reputable seller who performs quality work, in order to avoid receiving a console that just randomly stops working.
@@Josh.Davidson I arrived learning from one of your students the correct RGH methods and I found the story fascinating. The truth is that he has taught me what should be done to maintain a functional console and also a correct installation. The truth is, thank you Josh, I am from Colombia and thank you. To you and Mena for sending me the input.
I found a rgh “for repair” on a local marketplace that had EPOXY glopped onto the solder joints and periodically across the wire. Absolutely ridiculous what people come up with.
@@Josh.Davidson Hey josh! How did you learn so much about electronics? I've always done repairs/modifications more as a sidehobby but I've never been able to get a foot into the development aspect. Recently got into chipping switches, and even thought about developing an RPI alternative to the "HWFLY" chip which hemorrhaged in price after TeamX went down, ruining the market. Didn't even know where to start :(. Luckily, competent developers swooped in and dropped the PicoFLy. Still I need guidance because i want to know more. Btw Saw your last video, im very happy for you.
Amazes me how often I see hot glue, I personally don’t even have it in my toolbox. Kapton tape is cheap enough, easy to apply or remove and makes for a more professional install.
I learned why hot glue is stupid through the Xbox 360 Hub Discord, as well as the hard way through an RGH performed on a console that was dead anyway. The last console I used hot glue on is not on the solder joints, but just to hold the rest of the wire down, and then I gave up on it. I just can't imagine paying a premium for this garbage.
Hi Josh thanks for all the effort you put in every repair and video you do, but one question, your WebSite in error code list was alot of helpfull but looks like is deleted, is permanent? Sorry about my bad english
Sir i had a question. I noticed you did not use any resistor for the pll point. Is there really any need for a resistor in a corona motherboard since the voltages are same (1.8v)
@@Josh.Davidson 1 more question haha am I able to use a nand from a Xenon motherboard to nandwhich my corona? It’s currently rgh 2 but I will be converting to rgh 1.2 for dual nand
The only thing I can think of for so much use of hot glue is that they use that on the "production lines" to secure wires down. Otherwise, I have never heard anyone who "knows how to solder" ever use hot glue, because it just SUCKS. They use some kind of "heat resistant tape" that we probably all know.
No, hot glue is not use for that. In production lines, Kapton tape is used, because unlike hot glue which is not a professional material at all, Kapton tape is designed for this purpose.
Hi Josh, i have a 360 aparently is a 4gb stingray no hdd from 2013, i want to install RGH please give me some advice, is it safe to use a normal 1k resistor not a SMD one? Also i dont have a postfix, Im from latam and there's a lot of controversy about using ams 1117 1.2v regulator, so im gonna stick to whatever is you advice, please help me is my first Microsoft console, i have some experience in soldering
@@Josh.Davidson So is it advisable to install rgh 3.0 without resistance? If so, I'm going with everything, then I've heard people say that the Nand dies or that it gets completely damaged or things like that!! But you have the last answer in this matter máster
Hi Josh. So I noticed I have a Jasper V2 and want to get it RGH'd and found someone who can do it but only does RGH 3.0. I hear the RGH1.2a is better for phats like the Jaspers or is there something new about RGH 3.0 that works now better with Xbox 360 fats? Thank you.
@Josh.Davidson nand are not the same 1. I also messed up on the very last part disconnecting pico and starting xbox. I tried installing original nand and failed. Tried to install donor nand failed
friend, I made the rgh 3 on a corona v2 board, I used a 1k resistor between the smc-pll and pll points, the unlocking was a success, but the KSB is very hot, I can't stay for more than 5 seconds without burning my finger, I would like you to help me, is it normal for the ksb to get so hot?
Josh, I have a question about Falcon 360s. I have just recently acquired a real JTAG Falcon manufactured in May 2008 and was wondering the reliability. Did Microsoft fix the GPU problem by this time or do I have reason to worry?
@@Josh.Davidson Not sure if you would want to take on doing this, or how else I would go about it, but I would somehow just like to get a JASPER GPU installed into my Falcon. I just want the security of knowing I can use my Xbox without the likelihood of it failing in the future.
That guy needs to spend less time sniffing glue and maybe get some soldering lessons instead lol Wish you would name the guy but I see why not maybe just spam him a link or two to these vids lol Anyhow crackin spot easy fix for a pro lol
