The blinking yellow lights are the error code. The long space between the one long, then 3 shorts tells you it's that error. It'll cycle through a few times with that error code. The blue at the beginning just means it's trying to glitch. If...
Your SP1/2 connections looked bridged. You're also missing something next to SP1
Should look similar to this. Yours looks like it's just a big blob across the whole cap.
Well if he's just checking to see if it's booting properly before sealing everything up he should be ok. I usually at least have the cover and all that down before turning my devices back on.
But yes photos help a lot of you're looking for help...
Yes you can boot without all that. Your dat0, cmd, and clk should read around 0.5+, while RST should read around 1.2+ or something. Also, that piece on the right of the flex needs to slide under the frame.
Don't think I've seen any videos online with the back install. But it's pretty easy. The cap is much larger than the ones on the APU. Some people solder straight from the mosfet to the cap. Some use wires, which is what I've done in the past...
Do the console boot without the chip? If not check the 3.3v rail if it is shorted or not. If it is not shorted check the voltage when you plug the power cable in to see if the 3.3v rail give you 3.3v or not. If it is not then check your 3.3v...
You need more than that. That is only the CPU flex cable. Looks like nothing else is included. If you go the HWFly route you're still missing several components needed. There's another flex cable that is soldered to points on the board as well as...

Error code, short short = RST not connected. Check that point and what values are you reading in diode mode is what must people will tell you.
