ok you need to do the steps i posted on the previous page.
if you can get some alcohol wipes i would suggest cleaning the pins inside the clip and the legs of the nor chip.
its 130am for me so take your time with it. if you get stuck just post here where your stuck and we can pick this up tomorrow.

dont try to guess and do something i havent posted though just sit tight if you do get stuck (unless playerkp420 / 3absiso posts and suggests something)

It's 4:30 am for me I will do it tomorrow and I will tell you everything

I Hope you get it working, I will keep an eye on this thread.

But please next time do not rush yourself into things like flashing madness, that really isn't the way of doing things here. Hopefully you did not arm the system that much and it is still recoverable.

Quote from devwiki

If you do not validate your flash, and for some reason(s) the dump is invalid/bad, and you are rewriting to flash, you have no way of restoring the console hence making a perma-brick (unrecoverable brick).

i just looked again at those schematics (yeah i know i'm addicted to it) almost every part of the board is switched on/off seperatly by the syscon, so the black screen and no hdd and usb activity makes sense...

i know, useless info.
