I do have to say it's pretty ballsy to disassemble, and solder outside. But man youre video was extremely informative and straight forward. Easy to follow even for a beginner.
I had to reread that I better understand what your saying lol. Yeah bro I do everything outside for the lighting seems like no matter how many lights you use its never as good as the sun and lucky the deck has a deck above as well so even if it starts to rain its pretty safe out there I would love a fancy lab to work in but we only got a one bed room flat haha thanks for watching
Followed step by step and I now have an RGH3 Trinity console. I've never soldered before either! Thank you so much for this. Was so easy to follow and I absolutely love your style!
Great to see so many people interested in the 360 right now and also what's possible with RGH but I used one for like a year until last autumn season and then I noticed microsoft went and banned my retail console (a special edition one I've had since 2010 and made most of my xbox memories on) possibly for sharing the account I was mainly playing on as an ip ban or they just did every console regardless so that has put me off doing it completely even though I had helped between 300 and 500 people with unlock alls for free on the older call of duty games so that they can start playing if they've come from playstation or lost their old accounts etc
yeah bro got to get them while they are cheap ;) I get that sadly got to stay off line with mods running not worth it you can use shadow servers but is it really worth it...
as an RGH seller who has modded hundreds of these... love the video. Only problem is: DO NOT encourage people to remove X-Clamps like that.... i am surprised you didnt break your console doing that as well Also tip: you dont have to remove the sticker to disengage the clip, you can just stap a metal pin trough it
It's definitely not ideal but a lot of people (including me) have used that method successfully. It's ideal to get an x clamp tool but if you're just a hobbyist who's going to only ever do one you can save a few bucks.
Most definitely do more videos please!!! This was an awesome tutorial, I look forward to watching more :D . I also am interested in old pc hardware gaming in 2024.
Cheers mate 100% more of these to come I got to get a few parts I want for this Xbox before the next one on this topic. Next I want to do a Linux vs Windows 10 video for my Windows XP PC as best dual boot option for retro hardware to get online should be finished in a few weeks, thanks for watching!
It really isa pretty easy mod to do if you know how to solder. Everyone says the hardest part is the tiny connections on the back and the masking you have to scrape off but I struggled the most with the ground when you're wiring up the nand. You really need a hot iron with a large contact to get solder to flow on that pad.
Hello! Awesome tutorial! It was really easy and super fun to follow (I'd say the best I've seen) Two questions: 1) By decrypting the nand, I believe you mean - just put the CPU key into J-Runner and click "Create XeBuild Image"? 2) Taking the power cord out seems super important in a few of these steps, otherwise the console can crash and get an hardware error? Really new to the Xbox 360 modding scene, so I find all these tutorials very helpful to watch.
Thanks mate, yes that's right J-Runner needs the CPU key to decrypt the NAND in order to build the new one based off the old one. Yes that's also correct when you unplug it and plug back in it resets the chips so the new code is loaded so the next step will be possible. Also if you mess up your NAND J-Runner has a working folder where your OG NAND is copied to so you can restore them back to factory and try again, good luck mate thanks for watching.
@@TheDiWHYGuy So I bet on myself and bit the bullet. Wired up my Trinity and did the same steps in the nand programming as you did. And Boom! My first Xbox 360s is now RGH'ed. Thanks a lot for the tutorial! Wish you a nice day!
Nice to see there are still people modding Xbox360.. My Phat XBOX360 (the OG 2005 model with j-TAG mod that I did yeaaaaaarrrsss back because it also had the OG dashboard) had RROD couple of days back, so I bought an S today and already had a couple of picos laying around, so the RGH3 was peanuts. I now need an enclosure for the Phat HDD (500GB), for now I just removed it from the Phat case and put it in the Xbox360 S with some stickytape on the HDD lol. So didn't need to do the aurora and such. Instantly working this way. So didn't need your video but just wanted to give my "support" by commenting :D :P
Cheers mate thanks so much. Sounds like you had it sorted did you have the Blades Dashboard sad to lose such a Xbox but not much you could do it amazing I went this long... Glad you got a S sorted to replace the old Phat one, hopefully a Modders remakes Blades for us one day :D
@@TheDiWHYGuy yeah it was the Blades Dashboard :( I had it because I bought it back in 2007 without DVD drive and didn't know you needed a DVD drive LoL. But I kept it and when I found out the J-tag stuff I finally could use the Xbox :D I was always buying faulty stuff even as a kid so I could repair it.
@OneTheAndOnlyOne I bet it was nice while it lasted :) you can clone your old drive to a bigger 2.5" drive if you got loads of stuff to save and add to the new S model just editing the vid atm... That's the way I did the same thing best is when you take two broken things and make one good one keep up the good work bro!
If anyone is curious about temps if you delid the chips and put liquid metal, you can get around 54C° on CPU and 50C° on GPU with it. Mine is like that at least, which is quite good.
@@TheDiWHYGuy To be honest, at this point, I don't think a water cooler would be really necessary, unless you want to overclock the thing pretty heavily or something, though I'm not sure that's possible (I know it's possible on PS3 though). These temps also hold up while playing more demanding games, like Gears of War 3, and there is practically no difference between the idle and the under load temps. All in all, I'd say delidding is definitely worth it. Oh, and I should probably add that mine is also a Trinity, the exact same model as the one shown in the video.
Your right water cooling is most likely 100% unnecessary will just be for the challenge and looks the only benefit I can think of is might make thing a bit quieter and yeah like you say could overclock it if possible I'll defiantly look into it could be interesting for testing purposes. Nice best model if you ask me, cheers mate I look forward to the delid and at least with the Trinity its only one chip...
Awesome video, I just did this last week! Awesome mod. I will say, TH-cam videos make this mod look much easier. If you have not soldered before I would NOT recommend being the project you learn in. Get some practice boards and practice a bunch first
Ok this video was actually good for what it is just some editing and showing the process and getting it done! I bought a modded 360 slim, hd goodness and wireless controlelrs ovet he og xbox modded, well at least usb tranfering is handy, and running og xboxb games annoyigly look better on 360 so yea. Xbox 360 runs ps1 games o Im sold!
@@TheDiWHYGuy yeah went through 4 trinity boards before I finally got it right also tried a corona board but hated it and salvaged a halo reach case the grey 1 in the process
Holy sh1t bro 😳 thats guttering can you make a jumper wire to fix the motherboard you can send my photos of the damaged boards might be able to save them my email is info.diwhy@gmail.com or could be used as practice boards for upcoming modders thanks for sharing hope I can help!
@@TheDiWHYGuy I threw 2 away I only kept 1 trinity board where I've took the chime off plus 1 corona which it is glitched but crashes I think I damaged underneath the gpu/cpu plus on trinity I've pulled 3 tracks up doesn't boot at all
@@anthonyhowson7165 it happens some times when you destroy a trace you can solder a wire as a jumper from the closest connection points but not always possible just got to track the circuit what can be a bit of a mission on modern PCB's...
Cheers mate, you doing good work keep that up, was thinking about using one off a old gpu or something but just remembered I had that old circuit board laying around so went with that instead of sacrifice a gpu 😆 thanks for the pro tip 😀
Haha cheers mate its rights free TH-cam library song called: Slynk - Twelve Speed (Alone Time Vol. 2) somewhere there is a 1 hour remix that's bad ass af 😉
Flux isn’t expensive and will solve 90% of soldering problems, that said the flux you have is so much less convenient than flux in a syringe! Give it a go
My only advice would be to make your wires smaller, it helps with the glitching times, other than that great vid! :) Also PLEASE PLAY BIOSHOCK INFINITE
Yeah that makes sense as the timing is to the Nano second so will make it more precise, I was more so going for ease of connection direction haha. Yes bro I been playing a lot after this vid, its amazing game what a out of it setting pretty cool. Thanks mate!
Just a tip: About a year after finishing one of these builds, I discovered an overheating issue. It turns out the heatsink is poorly designed. If you flip it over, you'll notice there's only a small area of copper, which doesn't fully cover the CPU, leading to poor heat dissipation. To fix this, make sure to apply thermal compound evenly to the top of the CPU. I know this is unconventional, but it works for this console. I also used MX-6 thermal paste because it performs better at higher temperatures. Finally, increase the fan speed by 30-50% using the DashLaunch homebrew app. Hope this helps!
Don't use the falcons. The jaspers are upgraded and the Trinity and coronas don't have that issue. Plus in dash launch you can crank up the fan speed if you wish.
So in short, all you need to do RGH3 is a pair of wires, 10K resistor and one Raspberry Pico(plus connection wires)? and when you are done just remove the pico(plus connection wires) but keep the pair of wires + 10K resistor? I have a a 4GB Corona model(supposedly) and seeing this is tempting...
Yes that correct for the Trinity model. The RonaXboxs have two types one needs a postfix adapter as its missing a solder point buy the CPU so you need to check your motherboard good luck mate
Great job, I'll be doing this mod tomorrow as my pico arrives tomorrow aswell. I've read that you need 28AWG-30AWG wire for the mod, what kind of wire did you use?
Nice one thats good timing. I always use cate6 solid core ethernet cable for fine soldering it worked really well on this job just rember to ad a 10k resistor on the pll wire and you will be good also stranded cable will work just make sure its really well twisted and tined so no lose wires sneak out. Good luck mate just take your time and have fun 💪
@@TheDiWHYGuy Thanks a lot! I'll check if I have some old ethernet cable lying around, as for the resistor, I have ordered a whole set of 400 resistors (different values) along with the Pico.
@@TheDiWHYGuy Yeah, I did get everything sorted out before doing it. Had to make sure it all goes well as it is my first ever mod and the first time I would solder on a mobo so I was a bit nervous. Thanks to your tutorial everything went well, I have just finished setting up Aurora and I'm looking forward to test some games later. I'm still shocked I got it working first try , thanks a ton for the help and keep up the good work!
haha that's awesome! Yeah stuff that is never worth buying, its like rebuilding a car engine always some special tool in the book that only the certified guys can get so you have to make your own ;)
@@TheDiWHYGuy Thank you. I was always terrified of performing an RGH as a kid. With the skills I have today I’m gonna give it a go. Thanks to your very detailed video and engaging humor I have all the confidence in the world. Also the tip you gave in the video on disabling Xbox live connection answered another question I’ve had for a very long time. I was always scared I was gonna receive a console ban. Would you recommend removing my main profile before doing this or is it safe to use my Xbox live account as long as I disable Xbox live?
@@vinniequodling1678 that's awesome I'm sure you will nail it 😁 you can use your profile but don't sign it to Xbox live for this I would make a new profile and account and use shadow servers because once your online there is still a chance to get band so it would suck to loss your main account with all you achievements etc maybe I should do a video on how to get online working...
Thanks mate. Yeah not going to lie I'm probably a bad reference I been soldering from 9 years old as the old man had a PC / electronics company when I was a kid but its never to late to learn. The bro Zombie only started a few years ago and now he one of the best I know. Good luck!
I got a question. Can other controllers that use bluetooth or dongle be used on the xbox360 instead of the original controller? My old xbox360 controller is nowhere to be found and I only have aftermarket pc controllers that is based on xbox controller that i use on pc
Even though I've seen the rgh install done before a few years ago by someone else, your version was very interesting however I would just get someone to do it for me. I am however potentially interested in fixing my non-slim console or possibly others which have had RROD however I hear there's a manufacturing fault where the cpu or gpu solder messes up over time or the motherboard cracks under repeated temperature changes from play so maybe it's just best to only run slims regardless of if you play normal or RGH. The xbox sound seems to be duplicated and slightly echoed in the video but wasn't too distracting. As my other comment which hopefully shows said, it's maybe the best option to keep them offline unless you're really careful and take lots of measures to protect your other consoles or gamertags being in jeopardy
@@Stallzyx haha I know what your saying the wife made the clean the heck out of our one last time I fixed a gpu but it work so I can't complain 😅 thanks for watching
@@TheDiWHYGuyplease don't recommend that to people... That just causes more damage. The failure is from faulty solder bump underfill on the GPU - reflowing does nothing to fix it. The only fix for that is to replace the GPU itself.
Jasper consoles are perfectly reliable - slims aren't the only option. The motherboard doesn't really flex unless someone has ruined the console by doing a bolt mod on the heat sink... RROD on older consoles is a GPU defect and is only fixable by replacing it. Also, using a stealth server and not running any homebrew apps (including Aurora) makes the risk of a ban extremely low. You won't risk an account ban either - just the console. Even then, just flashing a new KV gets you right back online
Yeah bro it will work but if you have a different motherboard you will need a guide for that type of motherboard to get the right pins to solder the wires to. What is the model number of you Xbox and the input current? I can tell you if it will work.
Oh yeah your right the lasts ones released that are more square shaped can't be modded so don't get one of those ones. The Xbox 360 Slim all can be and red ring die less than the first models so defiantly look out for cheap slim model. Good luck mate!
@@TheDiWHYGuy No, with a screwdriver. It is a bit hard to explain in text, but you put the screwdriver similar to what you did but on the other side of the pin and the opposite of the X-clamp will popup.
if you already reset the router and Xbox and still not working you might need to unplug and replug the WiFi adapter board on the front of the Xbox you can see it @ 1.29 min check there is no corrosion on the connectors and the screw is in good luck mate
A little bit, I'm trying to learn atm so I put my Windows in French and forgot to put back English before recording this video lol hopefully it wont mess anyone up...

Also tip: you dont have to remove the sticker to disengage the clip, you can just stap a metal pin trough it
Cheers mate what's the best way to take it off? This was the 1st one I ever took apart...
It's definitely not ideal but a lot of people (including me) have used that method successfully. It's ideal to get an x clamp tool but if you're just a hobbyist who's going to only ever do one you can save a few bucks.
That's some wild west, care-free soldering - and I love it. Great work and thanks for sharing.
Ruff is good enough haha cheers mate 😁
I wish the 360 became like the Wii U and Wii where you could easily mod the console without any added hardware (other than an SD card ofc)
Yeah bro crazy how well they locked it down even the PS3 is way easier but if you can find a dead Xbox360 to practice on well worth it!
You're the man Mikey!!! Epic to see you smashing the tube. Your wealth of knowledge never ceases to amaze me. Keep it up brother

It really isa pretty easy mod to do if you know how to solder. Everyone says the hardest part is the tiny connections on the back and the masking you have to scrape off but I struggled the most with the ground when you're wiring up the nand. You really need a hot iron with a large contact to get solder to flow on that pad.
Fully and if you can get one cheap or have one lying around why not give it ago ;)

I'm still shocked I got it working first try , thanks a ton for the help and keep up the good work!
Nice one you done well congrats mate! Hope you have loads of fun on your your new beast of a 360 :D
You literally modded and disassembled your xbox the exact same way I did lol
No way what are the chances lol keep up the good work and thanks for watching
@@TheDiWHYGuy yes I had to use the same phone tools to get the x clamp off 😂 I was not about to buy a damn tool just to remove some clamps
haha that's awesome! Yeah stuff that is never worth buying, its like rebuilding a car engine always some special tool in the book that only the certified guys can get so you have to make your own ;)
Does it matter what update your Xbox is on? Can I be on the latest firmware?
Good question, yes you can be on the latest firmware and if your not there is no harm in updating to the latest version before doing the RGH3 hack.
@@TheDiWHYGuy Thank you. I was always terrified of performing an RGH as a kid. With the skills I have today I’m gonna give it a go. Thanks to your very detailed video and engaging humor I have all the confidence in the world. Also the tip you gave in the video on disabling Xbox live connection answered another question I’ve had for a very long time. I was always scared I was gonna receive a console ban.
Would you recommend removing my main profile before doing this or is it safe to use my Xbox live account as long as I disable Xbox live?
@@vinniequodling1678 that's awesome I'm sure you will nail it 😁 you can use your profile but don't sign it to Xbox live for this I would make a new profile and account and use shadow servers because once your online there is still a chance to get band so it would suck to loss your main account with all you achievements etc maybe I should do a video on how to get online working...
great video , i still don't find soldering fun or easy 😏unless someone else better then me does it 😗
Thanks mate. Yeah not going to lie I'm probably a bad reference I been soldering from 9 years old as the old man had a PC / electronics company when I was a kid but its never to late to learn. The bro Zombie only started a few years ago and now he one of the best I know. Good luck!
Single case with water cooled PS3 & Xbox 360 would be awesome.
Could you put a Wii in it too?
year bro that's a awesome Idea do they have HDMI? I want to use a KVM switch so it will have one output ;)
Sleeper PC just a fancy update and you got a windows computer
Not far off really :)
I got a question. Can other controllers that use bluetooth or dongle be used on the xbox360 instead of the original controller? My old xbox360 controller is nowhere to be found and I only have aftermarket pc controllers that is based on xbox controller that i use on pc
I just tried my PC controller based of Xbox it don't work bro you going have to keep looking for that 360 one...
If the controller supports XInput and you RGH the console, then yes, it's possible with a plugin or a NAND patch
Choice bro.
Even though I've seen the rgh install done before a few years ago by someone else, your version was very interesting however I would just get someone to do it for me. I am however potentially interested in fixing my non-slim console or possibly others which have had RROD however I hear there's a manufacturing fault where the cpu or gpu solder messes up over time or the motherboard cracks under repeated temperature changes from play so maybe it's just best to only run slims regardless of if you play normal or RGH. The xbox sound seems to be duplicated and slightly echoed in the video but wasn't too distracting. As my other comment which hopefully shows said, it's maybe the best option to keep them offline unless you're really careful and take lots of measures to protect your other consoles or gamertags being in jeopardy
@@TheDiWHYGuy yeahh sounds good and I've heard that about the oven to be fair but not sure my mum would allow that hahah
@@Stallzyx haha I know what your saying the wife made the clean the heck out of our one last time I fixed a gpu but it work so I can't complain 😅 thanks for watching
@@TheDiWHYGuyplease don't recommend that to people... That just causes more damage. The failure is from faulty solder bump underfill on the GPU - reflowing does nothing to fix it. The only fix for that is to replace the GPU itself.
Jasper consoles are perfectly reliable - slims aren't the only option.
The motherboard doesn't really flex unless someone has ruined the console by doing a bolt mod on the heat sink... RROD on older consoles is a GPU defect and is only fixable by replacing it.
Also, using a stealth server and not running any homebrew apps (including Aurora) makes the risk of a ban extremely low. You won't risk an account ban either - just the console. Even then, just flashing a new KV gets you right back online
@@Harmonic14 good to know thanks a lot!
nice vid
Thanks so much ☺
Bring back the Blades bro😢
RIP ⚰ press F to pay respects 🙌 for blades will be forever missed and never forgotten for Microsoft sellth and taketh away...
Will this work on unsupported xbox 360 console
Yeah bro it will work but if you have a different motherboard you will need a guide for that type of motherboard to get the right pins to solder the wires to. What is the model number of you Xbox and the input current? I can tell you if it will work.
@@TheDiWHYGuy no it's just a question because I heard there some Xbox 360 motherboard can't be hacked but this will be a helpful info for near future
Oh yeah your right the lasts ones released that are more square shaped can't be modded so don't get one of those ones. The Xbox 360 Slim all can be and red ring die less than the first models so defiantly look out for cheap slim model. Good luck mate!
@@TheDiWHYGuy thanks
@@GhostGamer799very last E models can't be hacked. All slims are moddable and getting a fat, unless it's dirt cheap and Jasper, is not worth it.
3:40 I'm crying when i see how people remove the X-clamp. I have to create a video showing how to do it the proper way ...
With the tool?
@@TheDiWHYGuy No, with a screwdriver. It is a bit hard to explain in text, but you put the screwdriver similar to what you did but on the other side of the pin and the opposite of the X-clamp will popup.
Sweet good to know that was my 1st time opening a 360, cheers mate!
Can't connect to wifi for some reason, any fix?
if you already reset the router and Xbox and still not working you might need to unplug and replug the WiFi adapter board on the front of the Xbox you can see it @ 1.29 min check there is no corrosion on the connectors and the screw is in good luck mate
