How to RGH3 a Xbox 360 Slim (Trinity) - Chipless RGH 3.0 Tutorial!
Рет қаралды 283,876
Күн бұрынHardmodding methods for the Xbox 360 come back once again with one of the coolest implementations I've seen to date in the form of RGH 3.0 from 15432! While previous RGH methods required a glitch chip, different timing files, playing around with different wire routing methods, RGH3 eliminates a lot of that by completely omitting the need for a glitch chip! Why use a glitch chip when we can use the console to glitch itself?! Aside from the NAND wiring, the only other installation in the console is simplified down to two wires and a resistor. That's it!
This video will walk through the process of discussing RGH3, discussing prerequisites, and stepping through a full Xbox 360 S disassembly to get RGH3 installed. The installation itself will cover preparing the required resistor, exposing an incredibly small point to solder to, wiring everything up to the console, and building ourselves a custom NAND for some homebrew goodness.

Just wanted to comment and say thanks for a superb tutorial. FYI to anyone that cares, it is possibly to scrape the PLL_Bypass without a microscope or magnifying glass. I did it! But that might be dumb luck, it is incredibly small in person. Patience and careful movement help. A few notes for anyone else who might hit some of the same stumbling blocks as I did: - the COM port thing with the PicoFlasher isn’t terribly reliable (at least on Windows 11) but rebooting and opening J-Runner as admin seems to get it to function every time - You don’t need to desolder the Pi when you boot Xell for the first time, just make sure it’s disconnected from your computer (again, might need to reboot the PC afterwards when you flash the NAND) - I started with a 3k resistor and that wasn’t doing it for me and I had to switch it out for a 10k which works flawlessly. Might have been my bad soldering, maybe the resistance does matter. Either way, something worth troubleshooting

If you are getting “Header is Wrong” using the PicoFlasher and maybe other flashers… it’s because your wires from the flasher to the Xbox are to LONG. I made this mistake, my wires were around 20inches long and I was get this error. They are now around 6-9 inches long and it works perfectly fine now. Please pass this along, that the NAND wires need to be short…. Maybe at most 10 inches long. P.S. Thank you for sharing this video with us all.

Awesome tutorial, I'm going to use it on my Trinity! Just a few suggestions to improve your disassembly tutorial: at 10:50 don't force the tabs, just grab a very thin/pointy screwdriver and carefully disengage the tabs, it takes a little patience but it works great, I used a magnifying glass to take a peak at the tabs and figure out the best angle. At 14:05, just press the empty space above the XBOX 360 seal that's joining both covers, it will push the tab away and release the cover, no poking hole needed. I didn't go any further because I just wanted to check if I had a Trinity board, which I do because both J2C1 and J2C3 headers are parallel to each other.

I have another suggestion. If your console is currently RGH2 (or 1.2) and still boots (and you haven't already removed your glitch chip), then you can convert it to RGH3 it without soldering in a NAND Flasher again! Here's how... 1. If you still have still have your old NAND dumps from when you RGH2'ed it, then you can skip 1.1 and 1.2. 1.1 If you need NAND dumps, you can boot up your 360 and get Simple 360 NAND Flasher 1.4b and you can use it to dump your NAND. 1.2 Then you can copy your dumps to a flash drive from Aurora/XEXMenu/FSD. 2. Load up you NAND dumps (either the ones you still kept from when you RGH2'ed or the ones you just dumped) into J-Runner. 3. Then you can select RGH3 and Create XeBuild Image. 4. Then rather than soldering the NAND Flasher (which is time consuming and finnicky), you can rename your newly-created XeBuild image to updflash.bin and copy it to your flash drive. 5. Then turn your console off and plug the flash drive in. Then press the eject button to boot into Xell and wait. 6. It should automatically start flashing the RGH3 updflash.bin, and once it's done you can turn your 360 off. 7. Do *NOT* turn it back on until you've soldered the 2 wires (POST & PLL) and have completely desoldered and removed your old (and now unnecessary) glitch chip. *Now that that's done you can turn it on and it should boot instantly every time!*
@razmann4k 2 жыл бұрын
For those who are RGH'ing for the first time, after flashing ECC, you don't have to use the NAND flasher to flash the Xebuild image! Here's how: * Flash ECC, boot into Xell and grab the CPU Key, then you can create your RGH3 Xebuild image. * Then find it and rename it to updflash.bin, and copy it to the root of your flash drive (must be FAT32 if I remember correctly) * Then turn your console off, plug the flash drive in and boot Xell again and wait. * It should automatically start flashing the NAND with the new RGH3 updflash.bin. Once it's done you can turn off you console, unplug the flash drive and boot it and your RGH3 should be a success! Why would you wanna do it this way rather than flashing all 16/64/256MB using the NAND flasher? * Well Xell is very small (50 blocks), so when you flashed ECC it didn't take long, however depending on your NAND size and speed of your flasher, writing the XeBuild image will take from 4 - 20 minutes. Writing it inside Xell however should take less than a minute. * Also, if you aren't 100% confident in your soldering, then doing it this way means you don't have to worry about a wire coming loose during that 4-20 minute period and corrupting your NAND. * The nice part is that you can always do this, even while the console is put back together. So if there's a new dashboard or RGH method that requires you to flash your NAND again, you don't have to worry about soldering in that NAND flasher again.

There's a small, but very important mistake in this tutorial, but everyone with a decent brain will probably notice: @43:07 you tell the viewer to disconnect the nand programmer (in my case it was the Pi Pico) from "the console itself", which will end up not working. I'm sure you were trying to say, "Disconnect it from the pc.", which is what I did and it did indeed work and boot into Xell. If you disconnect (or in my case would've had to unsolder) it from the console, it probably will end up not booting at all. It's also a better idea to reattach the cpu cooler before soldering the nand programmer wires onto the console, so that you don't risk for them to fall off in the process. Other than that this is an excellent tutorial, thank you very much for that!

The experience back then was SO bad in the early years that I leaped for an Xbox 360 Elite in March of 2010 and never looked back. MODIFIED though, with a 60GB model with PS2 backwards compatibility chips on board, CFW and a 1TB SSD, custom fan controls, EASILY one of the best systems I’ve owned! Just looking into 360 mods now, always knew it was harder and required soldering but seems equally as worth it!

Managed to do this successfully on my trinity a few days ago as a first timer. I found the PLL_BYPASS surprisingly okay, I was slow and careful, constantly cleaning it and seeing progress. A magnifying glass or a good close-up camera is really helpful to see what you’re doing. I found the NAND soldering the most challenging because the ends of the Dupont wires I used with my Raspberry Pico were clunky and awkward to solder to the motherboard. I had to re-solder the connections a few times in order for J-Runner to detect the console.

I used a standard pin header to which I soldered small long wires (about 15cm). I had my pi pico plugged in a breadboard. The pin header was then also plugged into the breadboard. No additional jumper wires are needed. The bare wires now need to be soldered to the NAND and the flashing can start. This way the header can be reused by desoldering the wires from the NAND when everything is finished.

Dude, what a ride! Thanks for your video, you can not imagine how I sweated and shook with my Xbox while following along. The PLL soldering point was wild and of all things the yellow wire from the NAND would not hold with me at all. I was in sheer despair until I found out that yellow is only ground and I can solder it literally anywhere else. And despite all that, miracles happened, the Picoflasher and J-Runner kicked in and I still can't believe it, I have a RGH-Xbox! Hopefully I don't ruin it while desoldering and assembling! Haha. Thanks for your great video, it really helped me extremely!

Mr Mario, I want to thank you for making this video. I am someone who has not had a lot of experience modding. In fact, some years back I tried to do one of these mods with a glitch chip and it didn't go well. I didn't have the confidence to fix the trace that I messed up. I sent the system out to get fixed and modded. I don't think I'll have to do that again. I have a little bit more experience now fixing traces so it left me feeling more confident. Of course having one of those magnifying headsets helped quite a bit. Especially with the hardest part of connecting the two wires in the back. I use a craft knife and a brand new blade and I was able to knock it out in no time. I don't have a steady hand, but I was like a surgeon. I followed everything step by step. Ironically, as soon as I opened up my bag of resistors I found the 10K resistors too. I also had the same wrapping wire you had, and shrink wrap. So it made the installation a breeze. You were a great help and thank you again.

Great tutorial... I have done two Trinity RGH3 based on this. I have lots of experience with OG Xbox (Xtender from leaked code done very first evening actually was my first). However, this RGH3 requires some intermediate to advanced soldering skills. I purchased an inexpensive digital Microscope in order to do things like this, and I cannot imagine how it could be done without one (maybe with magnifier glasses) - wow I wish I would have had this technology 20+ years ago!!! The footage in video makes it appear much larger and easier to do than it is in real life, and I just don't see how someone can go in with a cheap soldering iron and perform the mod without a magnifier - especially PLL_BYPASS. Maybe it is my old eyes, but even with reading glasses I would not do. For those who managed to do this mod with naked eye, I applaud them!
@MrMario2011 7 ай бұрын
You know? I was talking to someone about this just yesterday who did tons of PS2 chip installs. He could do those with no magnification, but age hit him and he can't see those points very well anymore with the naked eye. We talked about how it would have been so awesome to have digital microscopes back then.

Small bit of advice when you have the motherboard exposed, look for any blown or domed capacitors. They're are two main types of electrolytic capacitors on the board and the ones we're looking at are the ones above the white sticker at 50:00 If you have any that look like they're bulging or rounded at the top then they're most likely failing, any that are burst, broken, or leaking are definitely dead. While not crucial to the function of the system they can cause issues with it and should probably be swapped with new ones. Good news is they're dirt cheap, easy to find, and easy to swap out using the soldering tips described in this video, just make sure the polarity is the same as the old ones (it's marked on the side of the capacitor).

Thanks for this and the corona board equivalent video! Truly great resources. I've serviced a corona and a trinity now with this method and the former basically boots instantly. My trinity board is a little slower so I'm wondering if the resistor makes a difference here? Used a 1K on the corona board and a 10K on the trinity. Would it be faster to not use one at all on corona boards? Lastly; In the RGH3 guide when scraping away the PLL_BYPASS point they show a point both between the R and 3 as well as between the 3 and 5. So I'm guessing they are connected and you can use either one? Regardless of the board model?
