Thank you!  Made one very DUMB mistake… soldered onto the pogo pins while they were compressed…. In pla… pins sunk into plastic and now I have to make another one.  Lessons learned!

Dtomcat18 that looks great! Two questions, (1) do you have the pin out for the jtag for this PCB? (2) can you tell me the spacing of the pads? I figure I can order of these guys;

spacing I came up with is 1.1 (pad is .7 and spacing between pads is .4)

Finally tested out jig… no go.  Troubleshot for a bit.. decided to try new cpld…. Unsoldered original. … then had the idea to try a known good xblast… no go.  Try deleting software and reinstall (flashcat). Worked great…. Resoldered the original cpld back on… programmed successfully.  Jig officially works

Too complicated and expensive for me..😔

What isn't? A 5 dollar Aladdin that doesn't work? Lol. You get what you pay for, friend. 35 bucks is totally reasonable. Especially with how much American currency has devalued. Let's raise that debt ceiling! Gotta fight for the working man or SOME shit!

 

@Dtomcat18 what are the specs on this thing?

It’s like any other xblast as far as I know. 1mb flash (flashable by user if an update comes out). 1x512kb 2x256kb (1 256 slot is for OS). Uses patched OS to allow ram checker on 1.6 xbox

It's basically an XBlast Aladdin. Just much better looking... but cheaper to buy in bulk if you invest in a programmer!

I'm gonna buy one for my other Halo Edition. Green. :)
