Xbox 360:RGH/RGH1

RGH1 is for non-Xenon phat consoles with dashboard 14699 and lower. It uses CPU_PLL_BYPASS to slow down the CPU. While there were other RGH1-targeted chips, such as EDGE360, X360 Glitchip, and SQUIRT360; most of them are not obtainable anymore and won't be mentioned. While RGH 1.0 can be used on Zephyrs, EXT_CLK is far more reliable with those motherboards and also works on Xenon. RGH 1.2 is also much better than RGH1 on Falcon and Jasper motherboards.
Equipment Needed

- A soldering iron, solder, and flux (MG 835 recommended)
- Isopropyl alcohol (91% or higher recommended) and cotton swabs
- NAND Backup with XeLL written to the console
- NAND & Glitch Chip Programmer:
- xFlasher 360
- NAND-X

Programming the Glitch Chip
- Plug the cable from your programmer into the chip programmer. Slide switch on the CoolRunner to "PRG".
- If you are using an xFlasher, ensure the switch is set to
SPI
.
- If you are using an xFlasher, ensure the switch is set to
- Open J-Runner with Extras. Click "Program Timing File" in the upper left and select your console’s tab and the relevant radio button for RGH1.
- Click "Program". When complete, unplug the cable from the glitch chip and set the switch back to "NOR".
Decrypting the NAND
- Connect Ethernet and power on the console. The Coolrunner should blink once or more times, and then the console should start into XeLL RELOADED.
- Once XeLL finishes, it will display your CPU key and some other info. There is also an IP address.
- Enter the IP address into the box on the lower right of J-Runner and click "Get CPU Key". J-Runner will pull the info from the box, and decrypt the NANDs automatically.
Writing New NAND Image
- Power down the console, and connect your programmer to the motherboard.
- If you are using an xFlasher, ensure the switch is set to
SPI
.
- If you are using an xFlasher, ensure the switch is set to
- In the upper right of J-Runner, ensure the
Glitch
radio button is selected. - Click "Create XeBuild Image". This will take a few moments.
- Click "Write NAND".
- Disconnect your programmer when the process completes.
- Boot the console several times and ensure it boots consistently. If not, make sure your wiring is clean and neat and avoids noisy area. Run the wires near the X-Clamps for best results.
