Just make sure to get a few good dumps before proceeding, as always check your soldering before putting power to it.
Yup, just to be sure, a 1k resistor, a pico, wire, patience and steady hand are all I need?
No bridging points and stuff like that?

I think the pics I took show all details for these questions. The motherboard is bare, just want to make sure I have all knowledge I might need before getting to it.

Then, just remove some corrosion on some metal parts (for some reason, there's a blob of rust on the dvd drive and in one of the grills. Weird.

I'm still using an ancient NAND-X, never done the pico route ;p
But yeh, steady hand, cool head space.
Well, I have a couple of picos and the end result seems to be same difference and other flashers (but cheaper).

I was surprised at how easy it was to take the X-clamp without a tool.

One of the good things is how deep cleaned we can get the console during the process. It's amazing how much filth they can get in all the nooks and crannies.

I'd suggest racking up the fan to 70% or so to keep the system a little cooler once you're building the hacked NAND.
I still use a precision flathead to pop those things open, clamp removal tools are overrated.

Hey! See? I'm stupid, and scratched the pad on the side of the real one, but in the end, managed to come up clean.

Time to get the resistor. For some reason, I can't find one in my box of trinkets.

How reliable is the ext_clk method for Xenon motherboards these days? Basically I have a banned one in a case gathering dust and I'm wondering whether it might be worthwhile to glitch.

I know people hate that this is asked, but... Will there ever be a softmod method to hack the 360 like it's possible with PS3?

I'm picking up a Kinect tomorrow with Kinect Sports & Adventures, although the game I'd like to play again would be DBZ for Kinect (I had fun playing it). Just don't want to pay so much for a used copy.

I doubt a soft-mod will ever happen, but the newer RGH3 is awesome. I've done over 10 RGH3 mods on 360 units and they are all working great. The RGH3 mod is pretty easy also, other than solder point C5R35. - https://xbox360hub.com/guides/rgh-3-guide/

    And bc most of the family guy budget is spent on the voice actors rather than on the animation
