I recently bought a xenogc chip and I tried to install it. I went the wireless way just so I can easily get it out of the way oh boy that was my mistake. I need some help as to how i can better install it.
-I used some alternative points because point "10" on one of the diagrams got lifted up.
-I used wires from a USB cord that I tinned and stripped
-xenogc only shows red light and stays red
-I pretinned most of the points
-some of the alt points are holes and I'm not sure if the wires made it all the way through
-each wire is ~1inch long
-and I did clean each point as best as I could
Any help? Such as a better diagram for soldering since most are side angles or kinda blurry. And if need be I might have to solder straight to the xenochip points. I did order 30awg kynar wire. Thanks in advance any help is appreciate. If you could show me ur mod chip install that'd help me greatly with clear pics.

Can you show me what diagram you used? I don't remember there being anything labeled "10".

Thanks, can you take a picture of the damage to your board? Also, you probably have a clone Xeno chip so both LEDs are going to be red/orange, do you know which one is lighting up?
Atm I'm going to bed, school and stuff. But I'll take a pic tomorrow when I'm free! But it does have two LEDs. And the way I saw it on the official xeno chips they are very similar. I can't see any differences
