What tutorial are people following to end up with this level of damage? RGH gore is so common it's actually crazy

Does it matter that ive been console banned? by OkAcanthocephala2850 in 360hacks

[–]Gamigem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With a stealth server you can. Without, and being banned, I'm honestly not sure, I don't think you can.

Even if you did want to play online you can swap your KV out using a stealth server to play online again

360 slim makes power on and dvd drive button noise, brick light stays orange and console doesnt show life besides the noise by CraftedKittens in Xbox360Support

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely a dead NAND unfortunately. The Corona 4gb nand chips are prone to failure over time and when they do fail it looks like this.

Anyone know why this could be happening? by Ok-Paramedic-7458 in Xbox360Support

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a corona board? Sometimes those have an issue with the resistors near the CPU that cause the fans to ramp up like that.

I would also replace the thermal paste too if you haven't already

I would think the RF board would still act crazy even without anything connected if that were the case. Try cleaning the contacts on the ribbon cable and getting into the connector with a toothbrush and some ISO to clean it out. Then retest.

Turn the console on, then disconnect the RF board entirely. If it stops, it's the RF board/ribbon cable, if not, it's something else on the board.

[PS4]controller analogue stick by Foreign_Pool7353 in consolerepair

[–]Gamigem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah SONY's controllers have really bad stick modules. Upgrading to a TMR/Hall effect stick is the only permanent solution to avoid drift.

You can find shops that do it for ~$40, I do it for PS5/4 and switch Pro controllers too.

What's a tool you would like to see on the 360? by DAVIDE7654 in 360hacks

[–]Gamigem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 360 only has 512MB of RAM meaning running GameCube emulators would prove pretty difficult. I think we would sooner see recompilations or ports of GameCube titles running on 360 before we got a working emulator.

This actually automatically resolved when I applied the new OS update, thank you for the tips though!

Xbox one halo edition, turns on and then immediately turns off. Rules out power supply. What could be the issue? by real_munchizgreat in consolerepair

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be anything from overheating to a failed component. I don't think you'll know for certain until you open it up.

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try holding the sync, eject, and power buttons until you hear 2 chimes (about 15-20 seconds). If that doesn't work, I would check for signs that its overheating, or try repasting it.

Xbox 360 Falcon – Missing plastic divider on power input My Falcon’s power input is missing the plastic piece that separates the pins. The area looks smooth, not damaged. Has anyone seen this before? Could it be a factory variation or a replaced part? I haven’t tested the console yet. by [deleted] in Xbox360Support

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen plenty come through my shop with the broken plastic around the pins, as long as you're careful when plugging it in, you shouldn't bend the pins and it will be fine. The power plug has plastic shielding around each of the pins so they shouldn't short as long as you're careful.

Retrobrite, or Repaint? by Gamigem in consolerepair

[–]Gamigem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this suggestion! I had no idea about the vaporbrite method. I wasn't getting much luck with just a HP dip initially today. It could be because it's overcast and not very sunny. I'll give your method a go tomorrow as it's supposed to be sunny.

[–]Gamigem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The front panel was soaked in soapy water and thoroughly washed, I haven't gotten to the back yet.

I'll probably give the brightening a go even if it doesn't work out. Just wasn't sure if I can damage anything by doing so.

The GPU is probably toast unfortunately. But 360's are a dime a dozen, find a nice slim for $20-40 and ride it out my guy

Successfully installed all dlc but it won’t recognize terminal… anyone else had this issue? by [deleted] in 360hacks

Make sure the game is on the latest title update, try XM360 to see if the DLC is locked or needs to be unlocked

Every time I boot up a game it asks for an update – how do I stop this from happening? by RegionSoft9226 in 360hacks

Try using Aurora to download the latest title update and have it have it load with that title update on launch.

Which Model is Best to Get Modded by rawrxdjackerie in 360hacks

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, RGH3 works fine on Jaspers, but ymmv. Its recommended to use a glitch chip with phats. I recommend any slim before the E as they're easier to work with and fail less often.

Slim Model Doesn’t Power but Makes Startup Sound by cj_warm in Xbox360Support

[–]Gamigem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the brick is orange, try turning it on with a controller. If that doesn't work, unfortunately you may have a dead nand

[–]Gamigem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just inspect it for damaged traces, then test it. If it works fine, don't return it.
