ive never heard of fixing it that way are you sure thats even legit?

well i am not sure how to fix it i though that might be one way? i got this from some one els but i tried the 30 ping patch my self i will do anything to fix it it wont boot into xell so idk what to do

dude like i said its bad jtag wiring call who you got it from or try to resolder it your self thats wat it is trust me i had it and now my other jtag wouldnt even boot up at all so be **** careful bro

i really dont think it is the soldering because it worked fine untill i tryed to put the 30 ping patch on after that i got the one red light with the E79 error i really think it is my nand

i can help pm me your gt but most of the time e79 is from bad soldering on a jtag or a hard drive error. first try playing with the hard drive taken out if that dosn't work than i would check the soldering. I have had the same problem.

Hardware failure, in this scenario is specifically your nand.

Youre going to have to aquire something like nand-x in order to fix it, otherwise theres no possible way without opening it.

E79 isn't always solder/wire related.

Yes you're correct, reflashing your orig nand will get it to boot again but what you really need to reflash is your FreeBOOT image.

Need your cpu,nand and freeboot toolbox maker to create another FB image if you don't have your original..

If you cannot boot your console by eject or power, you will need to hook it up via usb or lpt to reflash your info.

I would look for someone who can do this for you locally or send it off to someone.

Timecode wrote Ok the other day i tried to put the 30 ping patch on my jtag and after i got the E79 error it wont boot into xell i have my original nand still. Do in need to reinstall xell on it and flash with my original nand and if so how? i dont have an lpt port on my computer and no usb nand flasher. Could i use and ethernet cable instead because that is my only option? Please help!!!!

NO that is not the way to go, the Ethernet port on the top of your xbox (if you have one) is made so you can plug a homemade adapter which has one side ethernet, one side lpt for easier flashing of NANDS, don't use a normal ethernet

Ok a lot of thinks can make this happen after a bad flash.
1. The wire is rong!
2. freeboot is not installed rite!
so if its the freeboot 1 that happend to me you will be adle to boot up in xell!
if you can not the you need to redo the wireing!
if you do have a bad flash here is a tut i made
