That bottom line there is confusing. They take issue with people calling their products Aladdin XT but not Aladdin. Did XenoFX make a product called Aladdin XT? The chip I have here does use Gold plating as mentioned here. By those standards I suppose this was made by xenofx unless the cloners started producing these with gold immersion later down the line. I've heard tale that the d0 wonkiness on modern aladdins is related to the Pcbs which I'm inclined to believe at this point. Need to test in more revisions to fully confirm. I did some tests on my 1.3 and flashed the xblast cpld, wired up d0 and it didn't have any issues with wonky booting.

Thanks for the insight! I was aware of ryzee's project which could be neat in a 1.0 or 1.1 split tsop build. if anyone has an Old 4064 aladdin they want to sell let me know, I think it's neat these had native lcd support for a brief moment. Did the xenoFX have a revision that added the lcd support? The pads are all there and labeled on yours. The aladdin pcb I have here looks like an exact clone of your xenofx.

I have what appears to be a legit Aladdin XT 4032 here. The silkscreen on the right seems to suggest that this supports wiring up an LCD. The 4064 revision also seems to have potentiometer for dialing in the brightness. Those pads still exist on modern aladdin clones but there's no traces there. Does anyone have any experience with wiring up an lcd to one of these or know of any documentation? I plan to tinker with it this week.

Yeah that checks out. When I change my settings up I always boot up a bank in order to save the settings. Not super intuitive for sure but that's how I do it.

For the Xblast aladdins, BT does not need to be tied to ground. If you check the info in the listing I have for these, I recommend just tieing D0 to ground on the xbox and not using the D0 pad on the aladdin as it tends to be unreliable. It looks like you have d0 grounded on the xbox here. Try removing the bt to ground wire on the chip. if d0 is grounded, it's normal for it to frag if there isn't a chip plugged into the pinheader. I do test each one of these before shipping but it's possible something happened in shipping. If you can't get it working I can swap it out for you no problem

Try reflowing the IDE pins on the back of the mainboard connector. -
Hey guys! I made a video guide on how to install / setup the OpenXenium modchip on a 1.6 OG xbox including an LPC rebuild installation. These chips are not much more than the Alladins prebuilt and significantly cheaper if you want to build one yourself. They're way more feature rich as well and support multiple bios' + LCD support. I'd highly recommend these chips my dudes. Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions.
