Hi Dave and all the mates that helped me to solve my problem! Finally the problem was the chip and my solder job is fine all you said! With my modchip replacement all is working like a charm! Thanks to all of you for your patience and help to solve it!

Hi Dave! What do you think about my 2 latest posts? And thanks for all your help! I will keep your updated when i will receive the replacement modchip!

Another thing that i tried now and makes me think that we are right and the chip is blank is that i tried to boot with it connected and with D0 to chip to too but without the SST chip and my Xbox FRAG. Then i supose that is a failure from EEPROM, the chip cant read from it because is blank Then all my installation is fine! Im right, Dave?

What do you think about this too? Also modzville (the chip seller) told me that he always tested them before send them but maybe is a problem of the aladdin itself and not the SST chip And thanks for help me a lot with my installation and to choose a better solder I want receive my Hakko to try it!

Also i discovered a table with different lights of Xbox and i was wrong calling FRAG to my problem, mine is Christmas lights . I hope that mistake dont make differences to get a solution

Hi again Dave! I was doing the last continuity and resistance test against bottom board points and always got 0 Ohm with it but i have a question because i have doubts if im doing it well: what measure should i use 200, 2k, 20k, 200k or 2M Ohm? And another question, in continuity mode (beeper) all beep fine (long beep) but in pin 2, i always got beep with interruptions, is normal (i reflowed this pin a bit more but i dont get a long beep) get interrupted beeps? And i discovered too that the 2 ground pins (2 and 12) beep fine (long beep) against every ground hole (screw hole) and one against another What do you think about my new questions? I want to exhaust my chances to fix my chip installation

Im from Spain

Thanks Dave! i ordered one and a few tips more to do better solderings! I hope that with the replacement of my Aladdin Xblast my Xbox will run fine, i keep you informed Also, if i got always continuity and the same voltages (after and before resolder LPC points) all my work should be correct, right?

I need practice more But what do you think about my last work soldering in pins? You see all fine? And i will look for a hakko then! Thanks for your tip Dave!

Then my solder looks good now? I did it with a cheap solder with temp regulation (i used a JBC without regulation before)... I think i need buy a new solder, weller is a good brand?

Yes, I linked him to this thread. I rebuild all my solder pins and reflow the pins in Aladdin Xblast but my Xbox continues FRAG with chip connected and D0 too but booting without D0 connected. He will send me a replacement. What do you think about my solder now? Thanks for your help Dave! T

Hi again Dave! I have a doubt... Could be the pin 16 that it makes FRAG my console with the chip connected and D0 connected to it? I ask because i didnt be able to remove the solder from this pin hole in LPC port Im waiting too for a answer from modzville, he said to me to send the pictures of my solder and tell him my tests in his discord channel, i posted all and im waiting for his answer

Thanks Dave! I will wait for a answer to my email and i will keep you informed about it.

Dave, i also have did a quick test more without D0 on chip connected but with chip connected to measure voltages in chip without FRAG, i got all right except pin 2 (ground), i got 0,02 V instead 0V in thi pin. In the rest of pins all voltages are right Then the chip could be empty without any bios flashed?

I sent a email to him, i will tell you if i could get a solution to get work my Aladdin Xbast
