Any Advice On How To Not Mess Everything Up?
prtscn replied to FalloutFloyd's topic in TSOP Flashing
Every solder has its own melting point. But for motherboard 200 is optimal temperature, above is risking lifting pads. Thermal mass, etc, is also a factor. -
Any Advice On How To Not Mess Everything Up?
prtscn replied to FalloutFloyd's topic in TSOP Flashing
don't use like 400C of temperature. Melting point of lead free solder is about 180-200. Soldering paste is your best friend. For starters, you have to train. People train by using thick gauge copper wire and apply solder to it. Also faulty motherboards. -
do you run it in 4:3 or 16:9 setting?
-
It is possible. Remove these stupid memory slots first, create cutsom 3D printed bottom part of the controller, have some sort of wireless communication so it could transfer direct USB data to remote receiver, and receiver translate it again to original USB data form. Of course internal battery is needed.

Could be bad cable on adapter itself. faulty cable should not need replug, more likely indicates that it's a adapter's fault. And don't even think about trying to buy third party OG xbox ontroller, they all suck. Maybe logitech don't.
-
these cables suck. you have to DIY. i think the problem with this cable is splitter at the end, it uses 4 contact two sided board, 5 contacts = 10 soldering points. that bread board only have 8 points and is poorly designed. And i think crosstalk and other magnetic phenomenons happens there, not in the cable itself, since it's twisted pair, braided core.

when you go to downloader you can select to update to test version
-
Yes, download trainers via downloader menu, and after install you can select trainers in game select screen by pressing context menu button (white), and select trainers. With trainer enable you will see icon to appear, indicating that trainer is enabled. Simple and easy. Test versions of xbmc4gamers is even better, more smooth.

Ninja load roms in OK time, but coinops is very slow. Any posibility to reduce loading times? I like coinops, because of its easier interface. Ninja is awesome, but fast scrolling through hundreds of roms is kinda slow.

error 16 - dashboard error. Try inserting hexen disk.
-
console should boot hexen without hdd if it's toast. with modchip turned on.
-
Yeah, you need IDE to USB adapter, eeporm backup (HDD key inside). Modchip bios bypass these checks. Probably you should focus in fixing modchip first.

06 - HDD unlock error.
-
try removing HDD and DVD drive.

can you post pictures of capacitor area?
-
before cap remove was working?
-
any error on screen?

Scart on the xbox sucks. end of story. Component is the way to go.
-
Damn. temperature about 180C for such application. Way, way too much... Technically you can still repair it. Practically not worth it, use it for spare parts.
-
what temperature do you use for soldering. In the video thumbnail i can see lifted pads on the right stick, in the video is to the left.

Does your controller now work? I will get the last question, when i know if the controller is working.
-
You probably damaged IC chip when you connected those two wires where i marked. Because you literally shorted to ground a power rail. And middle button has it's own rail and you connected it to shorted power rail too. Do other controller functions work? Do you have softmod so you can test controller with "controller test" app?
-
remove wires with orange (X)
