(The Matrix chips are pretty easy to get, so I would at least mention them as well. Alt motherboard points are mentioned.)

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, Matrix Glitcher 360, and SQUIRT360; this page details how to use RGH1 using a Coolrunner due to their availability.

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, Matrix Glitcher 360, and SQUIRT360; most of them are not obtainable anymore and won't be mentioned.

Equipment Needed

  • Coolrunner Rev A/B/C/D or CR3 Lite
  • A PC running Windows Vista or later
  • A soldering iron, solder, and flux (MG 835 recommended)
  • Isopropyl alcohol (91% or higher recommended) and cotton swabs
  • A NAND programmer:
    • xFlasher 360
    • Picoflasher
    • NAND-X
    • JR-Programmer
    • Matrix Flasher
  • J-Runner with Extras

Coolrunner Rev A/B/C/D

  • A - PLL
  • B - STBY_CLK (only if not using oscillator)
  • C - POST
  • D - RST

====CR3 Lite====*A - PLL

  • B - STBY_CLK (only if not using oscillator)
  • C - POST
  • D - RST

Matrix Glitcher

  • A - RST
  • B - POST
  • C - STBY_CLK (only if not using oscillator)
  • F - PLL

Squirt

  • Squirt BGA 1.2: Disable the onboard 670pf and/or 480pf caps by removing R7 and R8
  • Squirt Reloaded 2.X: remove R2 and connect STBY_CLK
  • Pinout follows written labels
  • Don't use POST or RST tuners

Programming the Glitch Chip

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Click "Program". When complete, unplug the cable from the glitch chip and set the switch back to "NOR".

Decrypting the NAND

  1. Connect Ethernet and power on the console. The Coolrunner should blink once or more times, and then the console should start into XeLL RELOADED.
  2. Once XeLL finishes, it will display your CPU key and some other info. There is also an IP address.
  3. 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

  1. Power down the console, and connect your programmer to the motherboard.
    • If you are using an xFlasher, ensure the switch is set to SPI.
  2. In the upper right of J-Runner, ensure the Glitch radio button is selected.
  3. Click "Create XeBuild Image". This will take a few moments.
  4. Click "Write NAND".
  5. Disconnect your programmer when the process completes.
  6. 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.
  7. Return to the RGH main page and continue in the Cleaning Up section.
