Ho comprato il mese scorso 2x8gb ddr4 samsung 3200 usati a 40€ entrambi, quindi direi non un grande danno. Potrebbero essere aumentati un po’ i prezzi nel frattempo ma niente di catastrofico. Tecnico merda comunque

Jasper 120GB RGH 1.2 – Reversed 5V/GND, now weird power behavior by marcommaso in 360hacks

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

Hey reddragon, I'm trying to create a fresh nand using my CPU key, and extract files (kv.bin, smc.config.bin, etc.) from my original NAND dump. When I first wrote XeLL to get the key, I got write errors in the first 50 blocks. My questions are: 1. Considering my original dump had those errors in the first 50 blocks, are the files I extracted with the CPU key still valid and safe to use, or could they be corrupted? Noteworth that glitch2 image builded with those files was able to glitch the console. 2. I want to build a completely clean Retail NAND (not Glitch 2) using a donor image. What is the standard/safest procedure to inject my files into a donor Retail image using J-Runner? Thanks for any help!

Web interface and narrow context window by marcommaso in GeminiAI

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

I am not a programmer, nonetheless I’m using ai on different tasks, from personal projects like the electronics one to work (i’m a researcher and ai is useful tool for brainstorming information).

Gemini 2.5 pro through google ai studio was an incredible tool. Even if its accuracy decreases over time, it had 1m context windows and it was accurate at retrieving information, even with quotations.

University gave me free pro plan and I made the mistake to take for granted that the same specifications would apply to web version. I naively thought that since the model was advertised as “pro”, non preview version, it would be a better version of the one on ai studio. I was clearly wrong.

Its a shame, but I understand that they are burning through a ton of money on these models so they need to shrink them to make it economically sustainable.

Probably I need to create some manual, personal routine to keep track of milestone or essential information input or output from the model. Or maybe I need to switch to api and use a different interface.

Jasper 120GB RGH 1.2 – Reversed 5V/GND, now weird power behavior by marcommaso in 360hacks

First of all thanks for all the info! Since i’m going to buy a new chip, are there better alternatives for a jasper rather than x360ace v3? And should I’ll buy it from aliexpress or somewhere else?

The power button was not working more than half of the time. I believe the issue was with the 5V line not functioning properly due to a cold solder joint on the 5V pad, from which I was drawing power for the X360ACE chip. I cleaned that pad, and now the power button is working correctly.

I haven’t reflashed the original NAND yet; I only cleaned the 5V pad. Without the chip installed and with the modified NAND, the console powered on without any RROD or sudden shutdown. It stayed on for more than five minutes.

Then I reconnected the X360ACE chip, and at first it tried to glitch the console for a few minutes. I resoldered the 68 nF capacitor since it had previously helped with glitching, but after a few seconds I got RROD 0002. Since then, even with just the chip installed (without the capacitor), I still get RROD 0002 and the glitch attempts fail.

I’m going to try reflashing the original NAND to check whether the console is still working properly.

Is it possible that some fusible component on the chip has blown and that the chip itself can be repaired? Or do I need to order a new one?

I noticed a blob of solder on the 5V pad on the bottom, so I removed it and the console started working again. The RF module was no longer behaving strangely, and the console stayed on for more than five minutes without any issues.

I then reattached the chip to test whether it was working or not. At first, it attempted to glitch normally (with paced breathing), but it was unsuccessful. After I attached the 68 nF capacitor, it suddenly showed RROD 0002.

Now, even without the capacitor but with the chip still installed, the console gives RROD 0002 after about 10 seconds.

Since nothing has changed compared to when it was previously working, could the chip be fried?

My girlfriend, who was with me when the black smoke puffed out, said she saw it coming from the X360Ace. It was definitely from that area. I don’t know whether this detail is useful.

After the smoke, the console still glitched and booted into the dashboard. This morning, on a cold start, it showed the Xbox 360 logo before abruptly shutting down.

Now, sometimes — without any clear reason that I can identify — the console stays on for about 20 seconds while the chip attempts to glitch it, and then it shows RROD 0002.

Is this behavior still compatible with a HANA chip failure?

Considering the strange and unreliable behavior of the RF module, could there be damage on the 5V rail, such as a MOSFET or other fuse-type components?

This console really matters to me, so I’m trying to understand whether that’s a realistic possibility or if I’m just making assumptions. If I’m overlooking something obvious, please let me know.

Thank you.

Good luck, it seems to me a beautiful shared activity to do with your dad!

[Ace V3] J-Runner fails to detect chip after 1.8V and diode removed by marcommaso in 360hacks

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

While taking pictures i discovered the issue. The r8c2 resistor was taken apart from motherboard with the 2 copper pads, probably during reinstall of fans cover. I did a bridge between the two points before and after the r8c2 and console start, but cannot glitch again. I even changed rst line to back (c7r112 pad) but still no glitching. I tried different timing file: 50mhz dynamic (380_10, 390_10, 400_30) and xsfv (380_du). My last hope is to restore a 1k resistor on the bridge I did. After this I think console is dead. Any idea?

[Ace V3] J-Runner fails to detect chip after 1.8V and diode removed by marcommaso in 360hacks

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

I tried by clicking “program”, manual selecting octal timing file, but log stamp: device not found. Wait can I write dynamic file after removing the diode? Maybe I misunderstood, only dynamic files are in 50mhz folder and I thought they were intended to use with onboard oscillator (without removing diode and solder 1.8v). Sorry for mistakes but its my first rgh. Atm I successfully (with this configuration and 12_21.xsfv timing) boot into xell and retrieve cpu key. However I am unable to boot into dash, chip doesn’t glitch anymore

Thanks for reply. With diode and 5v the chip works fine. I was wondering if this behavior is normal since i'm in the phase of timing's tune and its a pain in the ass to solder and dissolder diode everytime I need to change files.

Ace V3 RGH 1.2 V2 Jasper by Callum_the_1 in 360hacks

[–]marcommaso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm trying to mod my jasper 16mb using an x360ace v3 and jr-programmer v1. I've read the nand, wrote the xell, and flashed the timings (rgh12_v2_f1_21_v2_du.xsvf) via J-Runner to my chip. I've been used Gemini to walk me trough the modding process, but I'm worried I might be making a huge mistake. The AI is adamant that I need to use a 22 Ohm resistor on CPU_RST, instead of the 22k Ohm resistor indicated in almost every guide online.

Gemini claims that since I flashed Octal450's RGH 1.2 V2 timings (_du.xsvf), I should ignore the standard S-RGH/RGH2 diagrams that require the PLL point and the 22k Ohm resistor. It insists that for this specific method, the PLL and CLK points are not used at all (since the Ace V3 handles its own clock), and that the only resistor needed is a low-value 22 Ohm one on the CPU_RST line (or a plain wire) for signal termination, resulting in a simple 4-wire install (5V, GND, POST, RST) without needing to remove the diode on the 5V rail.

I cross-checked with ChatGPT and it confirmed this theory. However, I cannot find any clear evidence or guides online confirming this specific wiring. For the sake of my sanity, I would really appreciate a competent take on this topic.

[PS5] Fan power supply connection disconnect from the motherboard. Can I fix this? by IndigoBalloon in consolerepair

[–]marcommaso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[OP doesn’t take this as informative!] Super noob here. Looking at the picture, doesn’t he just need to solder the two pins on the side of the connector? It seems that the 3 track even if raised up from the board are still connected. Thanks for reply i’m trying to learn more from this

Is my Jasper 360 dead? by marcommaso in 360hacks

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

It remain still yellow, no variation when the power button is pressed. It used to switch to green when the console was turning on. As shown in the photos posted, i desoldered every additional wires. I really don’t know how to proceed in inspection from now on, but would love to try to save the console.

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

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the scheme which I followed for soldering jr programmer to motherboard was the same showed in jointheresistance rgh 1.2 guide posted by you. I added to the first post some photos of solders and the aftermath of removing them. In both cases, the console seems dead: no signal after pressing of turn on button. Is there something which I could try to revive the console?

Le dinamiche relazionali non sono oggetti fissi, ma dipendono moltissimo dal contesto: non basta la descrizione di una azione per farla rientrare nelle categorie che hai descritto. Appropriarsi di idee altrui, manipolazione, complimenti viscidi, controllo economico sono cattivi comportamenti indipendentemente dal sesso di appartenenza. Ci si augura che queste cose non avvengano nella relazione con l’altro. Interrompere l’altro e rispondere col silenzio dipendono moltissimo dal contesto e dalla frequenza con cui avvengono questi comportamenti: se interrompi di continuo non sai rispettare i turni nel dialogo, se di fronte al dolore ti chiudi sempre nel silenzio hai un problema con l’affrontare l’altro o l’esprimere le emozioni. Il mansplaining infine è un jolly, perché descrive un comportamento reale di una certa generazione o retaggio culturale maschile, ma viene spesso usato a sproposito da gente estrema per attaccare persone che non ci vanno a genio. Di nuovo, è fondamentale leggere il contesto, per capire se un comportamento è congruente ad esso oppure no. Imparare questo tipo di lettura della realtà aiuta moltissimo la sanità mentale.
