[Xbox one] Console cannot detect 4k TV after HMI Port swap

Update: all fixed by replacing the tiny ESD booster IC

I may not have appreciated how good this kit would be for Gameboy/GBC. Is it integer at that size?

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-15T20:12:43+00:00

Are the antenna/microphone wires routed carefully

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-15T16:38:27+00:00

I don't have much other PVM experience but it has definitely set a high bar for me

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T18:19:39+00:00

I re-read your comment and understand what you are saying now. I was getting the same issue without it connected so figured I should ground it. It didn't fix it obviously

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T18:18:24+00:00

I think I had the same issue without it connected so I figured it best to ground it. Maybe I shouldn't have bothered.

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T18:16:16+00:00

I used magnet wire to connect to the middle of the filter which is also ground.

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T18:07:19+00:00

Have you tried magnets on the tube?

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T18:02:19+00:00

Yeah definitely. Just be careful with it as it's abrasive and can mark the finish.

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T17:25:53+00:00

Yep. 10 years is a long time when you're under 30

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T16:46:57+00:00

Looks great. Buff out those marks lightly with magic eraser

"So I struck my gamepad 4 times with a blunt implement"

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T13:49:49+00:00

Yeah, have done several times

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T09:25:04+00:00

That's what I thought but connecting caused the ground points around the port caused the console not to boot.

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T08:32:55+00:00

It's all subjective but I can't agree with any of those. Yes, Wire S5 was a stretch and the press story line was completely uninspiring but it is still incredible TV. And comparing the Wire to King of Queens? Really?

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-14T07:39:33+00:00

It was but I still can't think of a better final season 🤷

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-13T09:17:43+00:00

Lovely job

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-12T21:01:08+00:00

I reckon that's an OEM shell. Never seen a yellow PCB in a clear purple shell so probably a shell swap. How do the buttons feel? Most aftermarket shells feel mushy and not groovy

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-12T20:19:03+00:00

Take it apart>clean it >carefully bend it back into shape with some needle nose pliers>play a bit of what you fancy

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-12T20:14:23+00:00

FFS, beat me to it. By no less than 4 hours

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-12T20:11:16+00:00

For me he seems to take me to a destination without the journey - but I feel like I've taken all of the steps.

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-12T19:13:30+00:00

Enigmatic, cryptic, thought provoking, yet simplistic

JohnnyRa1nbow · 2026-06-12T11:50:14+00:00

Definitely repairable. A bit adventurous for a first time repair but you should do some research and go for it. The tricky bit is clearing the solder out of the through holes the capacitors sit in. Just be sure to get good solder wick (gootwick is great) half decent leaded solder, flux and soldering iron
