I did rgh3 as my first hardware mod on a console. Its not too bad even without the sponsored stuff here. Just as he said, take your time scratching up the PLL point and you will be fine. Plus coronas don't need the resistor but I went back in and added one after the fact just to be on the safe side

Suggestion: Don't tin both pads for the smd resistor. Just tin one side, tac your resistor in place, then solder the other side. Great video as usual.

It's amazing that he took advice from one of his commenters and actually used the tape method to sort down the scraping away the point.

I love this QSB since it lets you change the wires if need be (for Viper V3) and avoids any stress being put on that tiny PLL point. Also the resistor install is a lot neater with it

THX a ton for your Support and Trust, Mario 🥳

Element is such a great person. Loved throwing ideas back and forth with him.

Oh man... Just attempted this. Trying to solder to the PLL point was a pain using the QSB... I ended up getting annoyed and cutting off that part of the QSB and instead soldering a wire between the PLL point and the resistor on the QSB.... might have been easier to forego the QSB entirely heh But enough of me complaining! Thank you for posting this video and your other video on how to RGH3 a corona xbox, they were extremely helpful :)

I prefer the wire method. Done now nearly 15 consoles. PS: You should use a toothpick for flux instead of the q tip ;) works better

i can see why this is easier for people who are new to soldering, id recommend buying a qsb that already has the resistor if you are new as that could be pretty difficult

Good stuff man. I remember doing soldering of small resistors like that at trade school, we dropped them on the floor so many times and lost them 😅. Trying to solder them in without a microscope is painful, holding them with the correct size tweezers does help

I had a lot of trouble with SMD until I got solder paste and a hot air work station. Total game changer

Small tip. When you solder those small resistors, just put solder on one pad and tack it down first. Then apply solder to the side.

Great video! Ever since my first failed Corona mod about 10 months ago I've tried to RGH a couple of Trinities, and I always had difficulty making the PLL_BYPASS point to hold onto my wires properly(probably a soldering skill issue on my end). Ordered a bunch of these QSBs, as they seem a great way to avoid having any issues soldering up that hard-to-hit via further down the line.

I'd love it if they would release a QSB with JST or similar connectors for reading the NAND. All those wires bunched together makes soldering them a pain. My trinity with RGH2 went well but if I ever have to dump a NAND on another system I'd want QSBs.

Sponsorship! Nice! I feel like Ive wondered about that for your channel before. I always thought "would sponsors be able to support a channel celebrating consile modding and bypassing security?"

Need to try this on my own time it would be a fun Hobby!

is it just me or does the pico flasher stop working after few consoles

So grateful for your channel, thank you.

nice video bro. i wish I kept more of my 360s because I had one I could have saved with such an easy RGH hack. I still have one of the fat systems with the original LPT JTAG method installed lol

In MrMario We trust

Thanks for another great video! So when you remove the xbox 360 slim cpu fan is there a retainer clip or you you just wiggle and pull?

I bought a pre-soldered QSB and it bricked my console because the resistor wasn't soldered on properly. I am very new when it comes to soldering and my second go around I was successful instead of trying to solder that tiny resistor on the board, I just spliced a big 10K resistor in a wire and I don't know if this matters but I put solder in the gap where the resistor should have went and it worked for me.

Love your aquateen hunger force refrence

15432 releases RGH3, a RGH 2 wire method for all motherboards except Xenon, Zephyr, and Winchester that does not need a glitch chip etc.. other than just business promotions.

Hi MrMario. I’m doing my first rgh in a couple weeks. I got a broken Trinity console to practice on before I do the real thing. I bought the QSB but I have heard quite a few people say that it makes the RGH more difficult. Is this true? Is it simpler just to use wire and a regular resistor?

Hey there! 2 quick questions, What solder do you use and at what temperature? Thank you :)

I think i missed ths part where this is easier... it looks to be more trouble so I'll just do the 2 wires and a resistors method in the video you made a year ago.

I have a problem with a console. Ive done 5 consoles using RGH3 and not had any issues what so ever on both Trinity and Corona motherboards. My friend tried to do a trinity and it worked fine. He booted up GTA VC for the OG xbox and it randomly shut off. He did some checks etc and said nothing seemed out of place. He was testing his wires and pulled up a bit too hard on the POST point ripping up the cable and solder. Since then he has tried to fix it and eventually dug a hole on the POST point and if that post point gets any solder on it what so ever. The console will chime and wont power on. BUT if it is clear of solder it will just perma boom. It chimes and the fan stays on and eventually speeds up to insane speeds. I of course bought it off him for £20 as spares as repairs incase i needed some additional parts but have tried to fix it instead. He did already expose the POST point on the other end of the board and wire up to that and has the same effect of chiming > fan stays on > i turned it off. I have redone the wiring, soldering, changed resistors and no luck. Even tried to make it boot retail as he sent me the original nand files etc. No luck, do you or anyone reading this have any ideas? Im not at a loss if it wont work as ill use it for parts but be nice to see if i can get it working again.

do you have to tick the PCB Assembly when ordering or no need?

Hmm, what version of j runner extras are you using? Whenever I run xell with ethernet on mod it always locks up

So I had a few questions, Even If I purchase that $200 microscope you have linked will it be easier to do a RGH3? I have 2 Coronas one I already modded with a glitch chip years and years ago, But kind of forgot the entire process of all this and mostly stressed to attempt this once again, My other question is what is mainly needed to complete a RGH3 glitch? Just don't want to purchase a ton of things that arent needed.

quick question im thinking about doing this to my trinity but it has not been updated since 2018 running 17526 should i stay on this dashboard or update to most recent its a non modded console atm

Use next Time a Fiberglas Pen! For PLL. It´s much easyer

Definitely the tiniest resistor I’ve ever installed 🤣 smaller then a dust bunny

Can this be done in a fat Xenon (no HDMI) 360? I cant find any info, just some posts about lower dashboard versions and whatnot

I've gotten pretty discouraged during my RGH journey. I've bricked several consoles and only been able to do one successfully. In your opinion, what is the easiest motherboard to RGH?

Do i need both the QSB and postfix adapter for my xbox 360 e or just the QSB?

What wires do I need for the pico flasher and where do I get them?

Does this work for all Corona V1-6? Does this replace the post fix adapter for v4-6? Thank you!

Hey, I followed your corona guide with my 360 e however I ripped the pad for db3, is there an alternative pad that I can use or an I sol

Hi I love you your video Made my life easier Thanks 😊😊 Anyway I have Winchester 😢😢 Is there any way to go through 😅😅

Quick question. Does this works to XBOX 360 E model?

Thanks

I think this did not make it easier, and instead of using a through the hole resistor, you have to solder 2 more tiny points at the smd resistor. The pcb itself is neat though, but for not much advantage...

Nice One!

So this only works for the slim? Won't work on a jasper?

What flux do you use?

Is there any new method to RGH a Winchester 500G ?

ooooh that's what I want

i got a rgh3 console with no display and a bad post fix i bought another post fix adapter and soldered the glitch chip back in place and still no display, although after upgrading to rgh3 on this corona i still dont have a display signal lol, any ideas?

Whats up! I already have an RGH3 xbox made myself

This is work with Slim E ?

Its cool shit, but I woudn't risk it myself even with soldering skills 😂

$25 for shipping when they can put it in an envelope!

Too lazy for solder 2 wires without qsb? xD

I don’t mind sponsors on videos but when they’re 4:30 long it’s a joke

Lmao screw all this noise, I'll stick with the PS3 softmod.
