Hi,
This tutorial is for those people who: 1. Have messed up DB1F1 and its alternate points OR just don't want to solder to them thinking that it might damage their Xbox 2. Are able to run freeboot but are also constantly plagued with the bootup error E79, especially on Zephyrs and some Falcons. 3. Have syncing problem with their controllers and weird functioning of the ROL module. 4. Want to connect their Xbox to their TVs via HDMI and not worry about any errors caused by it during bootup. 5. Just want to have a more stable Jtagged Xbox360 as compared to an Xbox360 with the default JTAG wiring. 6. Just want to experiment what happens if they follow this tutorial 7. Just want to read this tutorial and tell if there is any mistake in it ==================== Remember, this tutorial is for all Xbox360 motherboard revisions except Xenon(and Xbox360 Slim). ==================== Now, What happens if this tutorial is followed? You again end up with a Jtagged Xbox360 but with different JTAG wiring and probably a more reliable Xbox360 with less boot failures. What this tutorial actually describes is the procedure on how to change the points to which the the JTAG Wires(Red and Yellow) connect to, and then procedure by which we will edit XeLL/XBR/freeboot to be able to coop with the changing of these points. ==================== Long Tutorial? Now, it might seem like this tutorial is very long, but it isn't. It seems to be long because I have divided this tutorial into many small steps and have also added many pictures for easier understanding. Otherwise, this also could be a very short tutorial. SIDE NOTE: I would have added more pictures, but the forum doesn't allow to post more that 40 images in a single post. ==================== Preface: This tutorial picks up from the JTAG Install part of the original Nand-X installation instructions present HERE. First you have to follow the tutorial upto the end of the installation of the NAND part of the Nand-X. Then continue onto the JTAG install from below here. As for those who already have installed the Nand-X like it should be in its default condition, this tutorial is no different for you. The only difference being that you will have to delsolder the points(The points the Red are Yellow wires are soldered to i.e. DB1F1 and ROL respectively) you have already soldered to. As the preface has been covered now, let's move onto the actual tutorial: Requirements: =========== Hardware: - A complete Nand-X package. - A 15W to 40W Soldering Iron. 15W is recommended, although it is safe to use one upto 40W. - Rosin Core/Flux Core Solder. Preferably 60/40 Rosin-Core Solder with 0.32" Diameter. - Torx 8 and Torx 10 screwdrivers - A Scissor Software: - Your original 7371 NAND dump. (Make sure that the original dump had been made when the Xbox was set to use the AV or VGA cable, not HDMI) NOTE: If you haven't updated to 7371 till now, update to 7371 before continuing on with this tutorial. You can get the 7371 update from here: 2.0.7371.0.rar - NandPro 2.0d: http://www.mediafire.com/?ynzyydmmmzc - Update My SMC: http://www.mediafire.com/?j2mji1t2mdy - XBReboot for your console - Easy XBR to freeboot: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=F8M68FIE - DashLaunch v1.0 patches ==================== Actual Work: ============ Hardware: 1. First we will have to take the motherboard out of the metal case. Refer to this tutorial if want to know how to do it: How to Disassemble the Xbox 360 2a. Now, after the installation of the JTAG QSB, you will have to cut the yellow wire, so that we can solder it to the alternate point on the underside of the motherboard. Use a scissor and cut the wire approximately from the point as seen in this picture: 2b. Look at the below picture to understand where you have to solder the yellow wire. First we will solder the diode end of the wire to Q2N1: Then we will solder the other end to this point: And a complete picture of the whole wire soldered to both points: Although it shouldn't be very loose by itself, but you should tape it to the motherboard with two small pieces insulation tape Or you can also glue it down to the motherboard. This is optional but you can do it if you want to. 3a. Now what we have to do is to connect the diode end of the Red wire to this point: This can be done in three ways: a. You can solder some extra wire onto the diode side of the Red wire and insert it into the connector DVD power connector itself. b. You can scrape some of the protective covering off the wire you want to connect to, so that you don't need to attach any extra wire to the diode side of the Red wire and can solder the it directly to the wire. c. Cut the Red Wire and solder it on the reverse side of the motherboard: I personally have used the option "b", since I think that a soldered wire would be much better as compared to a wire directly inserted into the power connector. But in the end, its your own choice. This is how I did it: And this is all the soldering we have to do here. Wasn't as hard as the DB1F1, right? NOTE: For people who aren't using the Jtag QSB, will still have to install the Jumper wire between J2D2.4 and J2D2.7 Software: Remember, you don't have to follow this part of the tutorial per word(like naming the folders etc), but I have tried to write this part so that everyone, even someone like me who is very new to Jtagging can easily follow it. Before we continue on with this part, remember to unhide the file extensions of different files on your PC so that there is no complication with name of the files including their extensions. Refer here if you want to know ho to do it: http://www.fileinfo.com/help/windows...xtensions.html Now, presuming you already have the five things required for this part... 1. Make a new folder into a non-Windows hard disk partition on your PC and rename it to "Project SMC" 2. Extract "NandPro 2.0d", "Update My SMC", XBR for you console and "XBR to freeboot" each into separate folders inside the "Project SMC" folder. 3. Copy the XBR for your console, which is a *.bin file, into the Nandpro folder. I have a 16 MB Jasper myself, so I have copied the XBR for Jasper to the NandPro folder as you can see below. 4. Copy your original NAND dump into the NandPro folder. In my case, the original NAND is named "nand1.bin" 5. Rename the XBR for your console to "XBR.bin" and your original NAND dump to "orig.bin". 6a. For WinXP users: Click Start-->Select Run-->Type in "CMD"-->Press Enter. You will then be opened a Command Prompt Window. 6b. For Win7/Vista users: Click Start-->Select All Programs-->Accessories--> Right-click Command Prompt--> Select Run as Administrator. You will then be opened a Command Prompt Window in Administrator Mode. 7a. Type "E:" 7b. Type "cd Project SMC" 7c. Type "cd NandPro" NOTE: Once you open the Command Prompt and have got to the NandPro folder, don't close it after each command you type into it. If something else has to done according to the steps, just minimize the window, and then maximize it when you have to use it. 8. Now according to your NAND size, type in the following commands: nandpro orig.bin: -r16/256/512 rawkv.bin 1 1 (edit 16/256/512 as appropriate) nandpro orig.bin: -r16 rawconfig.bin 3de 2 nandpro orig.bin: -r256/-r512 rawconfig.bin ef7 2(For big block jaspers. Type 256 or 512 according to your NAND size) In my case, I typed the following: 9. Now we need to inject the "rawkv.bin" and "rawconfig.bin into "XBR.bin". Now according to your NAND size, type in the following commands: nandpro xbr.bin: -w16/256/512 rawkv.bin 1 1 (edit 16/256/512 as appropriate) nandpro xbr.bin: -w16 rawconfig.bin 3de 2 nandpro xbr.bin: -w256/-r512 rawconfig.bin ef7 2 (For big block jaspers. Type 256 or 512 according to your NAND size) In my case, I typed the following: 10. Now rename the injected "XBR.bin" to "XBR_orig.bin", so that it doesn't get mixed up. 11. Now copy the "XBR_orig.bin" from the NandPro folder to the "Update My SMC" folder. 12. Copy the files present in the "runtime" folder within the Update My SMC to "system32" folder of the Windows directory of your PC. For 64-bit users, you will also have to copy these files to "SysWOW64" folder within the Windows directory. 13. Now run the "DumpSMC-fromANY_image.exe" file from the Update My SMC folder. 14. Enter "XBR_orig.bin" as the name of the bin file. 15. Select the Motherboard you have from the list. In my case I have selected "3" since I have a 16MB Jasper. 16. It will then confirm whether the information entered is correct. Check it, then type in "Y" and press enter. 17. A new bin file with the name of your motherboard will then be made, and will then be present in the Update My SMC folder. In my case, it's a "jasper.bin" file. 18. Now run the "update-my-SMC!.exe" file in administrator mode. It will show you some information regarding XeLL. Just press a key to make it disappear. 19. Now enter "XBR_orig.bin" as the name of the bin file and press enter. 20. Select the Motherboard you have from the list. In my case I have selected "3" since I have a 16MB Jasper. 21. Select option "4" from the list of SMC patches. 22. Select option "2" for TMS i.e. AUD_CLAMP and select option "4" for TDI i.e. OPEN_TRAY. 23. It should then confirm your selection. It should show: TMS=AUD_CLAMP and TDI=OPEN_TRAY. Type "Y" and press Enter. It should then tell you that it has successfully updated the SMC. Then press any key to close the window. 24. Now rename the "XBR_orig.bin" to "XBR_smc.bin", so that it doesn't get mixed up. 25. Now copy the "XBR_smc.bin" to the NandPro folder. 26. Now connect the Nand-X to your console and your PC via USB. Remember to have the PSU connected to the Xbox and on standby(Orange light) when you do this. Also remember to plug in the ROL. Then open back the Command Prompt window, and type in the following command to write XBR to your NAND: nandpro usb: -w16/256/512 XBR_smc.bin (edit 16/256/512 depending on your NAND size) In my case, I wrote the following: 27. After the writing process has been completed, disconnect the Nand-X from the USB. Move the JTAG switch on the JTAG QSB to the center and do a power cycle. 28. Now turn on your Xbox360. If everything went right, your console should bootup and start with welcome screen. This means that everything is fine and you can continue forward with installing freeboot with the modified SMC. 29. Now turn your Xbox360 off and turn it back on with the Eject button. XeLL will boot, and decrypt your CPU Key. Keep a camera handy and take a picture of the TV screen when you see a similar screen like below: Fuseset 3 & 5, and fuseset 4 & 6 make up your CPU Key. Combine them and write it down somewhere. Also create a text file with your CPU Key in it, so that you can easily copy it from there when needed. Also, just to make sure you got the correct CPU Key, add your CPU Key in the 360 Flash Dump Tool 0.94 and open your original NAND in it. If it decrypts your KeyVault and shows you your DVD Key, Region etc, then you have the correct CPU Key. If it doesn't, then you probably made a mistake while writing the CPU Key down from XeLL. TipXeLL doesn't boot...Hmm...

Re: Alternate JTAG SMC/Points Tutorial
What points would I use for the red wire in regards to option 'c'?
EDIT: Just for curiosity sake. If I go with option 'b', does my disc drive need to be plugged in? Or can I just connect the power cable to the motherboard and leave the disc drive out? (wanted to mount a fan in the disc drive area).

Re: Alternate JTAG SMC/Points Tutorial
the other end goes in the same hole it always does but on the reverse side of it.
