I soldered everything related to a CR4 install on just fine except the NAND-X, so I went back and tried to re-do the job. I ended up putting a bit too much solder on, so all the points connected in one big bubble. I cleaned it up the best I could, pulled it off, and was going to re-solder it but saw this:

Did I kill it? Or should I clean it up and try again?

It hurts to look at ;_;

Clean it really REALLY GOOD!
Then make a very detailed picture of the points.
If it's fucked then you got to scrape traces to dump the NAND.

Edit:
Did you turn on the 360?
Did you smelled electricity?
Did the 360 turn on properly?

Here's how she looks now:

Sorry about the blurry quality, but my phone doesn't want to take clear photos up close. It looks a lot better now, and the burned parts are just solder burned onto the mobo, so I don't think it's that bad.

I haven't turned the 360 on yet, is there any way to do it with just the bare mobo exposed?

It's hard to tell when it's blurry.

Well you can bite the bullet and test it.
Just hook up the AV + power + DVD + HDD + RF board and power it on.

It powered up just fine, no burning smell, so I went ahead with soldering it back on, and I'm getting this error when I try to read the NAND:

I'm guessing it's the NAND-X still not being soldered properly?
