number 5's eyes glow red like when he's angry? I actually lmao'd so...this mod keeps your xbox clock running for years unplugged? crazy if true and well worth the money I think, playstations do this with a 2032 and I always wondered if it'd be possible for xbox

those SMD joints may need a complete redo, the last board I cleaned had leakage crud on it that bad and kept throwing an error code on startup, I guess the acid chewed into those joints enough to halt electrical flow or whatever

I believe someone around here said a socket 370 clamp is compatible

Good work phrunt. Maybe you could drill through the ferrite's housing, too, and slip the cable in? I usually just crack those open and reattach the ferrites with heat shrink tubing when redoing controllers. My main controller has no ferrite and gives me no trouble, so maybe you're good without it. IIRC (could be wrong though), the dimensions of a ferrite determine what frequency of EMI to suppress, and xbox controller ones may have been selected with a particular frequency range in mind, so if those clip-on ones are differently sized and don't help should you run into problems, that may be why. Ugh. Lemme tellya, I'd rather have my ass caned in singapore than deal with electrical tape gunk again.

Easily fixed. Shorten the cable down past the bad portion and solder it back in. If the break were farther down the cable you'd be stuck with some real work.

Games run slower off HDD than disc (Halo, Mechwarrior unplayable from HDD)

He said the box was mint. Gotta wonder how much that set him back. -

well...why not? it doesn't hurt functionality, and it feels good it also sweetens the pot when selling an xbox, buyers think it's cool

Have you cleaned it? I'd start there. I bought a used 3rd-party brand 360 controller that had the very same problem. The answer was giving the PCB a good scrub in soap and hot water; it was a little filthy and maybe short circuiting somewhere.

I had the same problem once. I still wonder why it only worked with the unleashx name, rather than names of other dashboards or default.xbe. Then again I vaguely remember seeing the code and unleashx was at the top of the boot order. Maybe not? This was 12 years ago, lol.

same, lmao how the hell'd I miss this thread? thanks for mentioning that, never heard of it but will definitely play asap -
I don't know about needing a skill for that. Use tweezers, or just hold the plug over top and press down with a screwdriver or a claw.
