Jtag - Avatar silhouette?

[AP0ll0UK]

Evening All

My Jtag seems to be working great, I haven't installed Freestyle Dash yet as I've only just got everything up and running and some iso's running from the main dash.

During the Jtag process, I used Jtag Tool by Coolshrimp for the flash and it automatically took me up to 12611 from 7173.

The only thing left to sort out I think is the Avatars which are showing as greyed out or a silhouette.

I've had a dig around and various sites seem to refer to running odash updates for dash versions that are older than mine.

Have I missed something, or is there a dash update I need to install for 12611?

Yeah you need to instal the official Microsoft dash in order to get your avatar back

Just make sure you have the rt63 resistor removed or have done the alternative bridge points
To be on the safe side

Bugger.

Thanks for the info though

Do you have a link to a tutorial for a Xenon please? I thought I'd done soldering and have put the console back together.

Is it easy to remove the e-fuse or simpler to solder another wire on?

I wonder if this also explains why when I run certain games the console keeps saying it needs a dash update, particularly games that use the Kinect [which I need to test run tonight before I wrap it up ]

Ok I found this:-

I've done it, bit of faff though as it's tiny!

I'm going to fire it back up now and run the 12611 update off of a usb stick.

I guess the question is, how would I know if I've burnt the efuse? Would the Jtag stop working and would it not boot into Xell or launch games from the dash?

Done!!

Thanks mate, you've been a big help

I can test this Kinect out now and then wrap it up for my lad, many thanks
