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
-
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
-
Another question, i always got wrong voltages with chip connected but got all voltages right with it disconnected... Could be a bad flashed chip the reason? I dont understand this
-
But seems that it should boot into latest bank to flash (xblast bank flashed) as i read in this post: https://mmmonkey.co.uk/og-xbox-xblast-aladdin-install/ Its strange... What should be my next step?
-
Then i need to buy another (one from Aliexpress) and swap it (if the new chip works) and flash my xblast?
-
I put vertically the board and tested from soldered pins in the bottom against the points in the modchip and in Ohm's scale in my multimeter and in all pins from modchip (1,2,5,6,7,8,9,10 and 11) i got 0 Ohms. Also i tested in points from bottom of the board and got 0 Ohms too like in this image: I tested too with beeper position in my multimeter doing both test from above (pins in mainboard vs points in chip and (pins in mainboard vs points in mainboard) and always beeped. If i solder the wire from D0 in mainboard to a screw hole (ground) always happen the same thing like when is connected to D0 in chip, always FRAG Also i tested the continuity from both D0 points (board and chip) and i got 0 Ohm too Any idea to solve it? Thank you very much for your patience trying to help me!
-
I checked voltage from ground (pin 2) against pin 1 with modchip connected (horizontally) and got 0,02 V and testing continuity (omega letter from multimeter) i got 0,02 too instead 1 or 0... Im out of ideas
-
With my board vertically? Or from fast solder 1 and 2 pins in horizontal position? I tested them with the board disconnected against their points that barnito's told in his guide. Im totally lost now and im afraid of damage my xbox
-
I dont know how to do it i checked continuity with bottom board pins against bottom pins like the schematic from barnito's, doing it only pin 2 give me 1 in omh scale instead 0
-
Dead in motherboard? i got 1.7V on pin 1 measuring the voltage without my chip connected but when i connected it i always got +-0V How can i check continuity with the modchip connected? I checked it with my motherboard disconnected against the points in the bottom from barnito's guide
-
Hi Dave! Do you have any idea what might be wrong? All voltages seems right except 3 points in the chip. Here are my voltages:
-
Thanks Dave, should i check voltages with D0 connected to chip? I always can boot right from TSOP with the chip connected but without D0 connected, i cant boot from chip to XblasOS to select bios banks (2) or TSOP.I can always boot directly from TSOP with the chip connected but without D0 connected, what I can't do is boot from the chip to XblasOS to select the BIOS banks (2) or TSOP with D0 connected to the chip.
