Hey guys, so I have this xbox that was previously TSOP flashed. I accidently screwed up the TSOP by trying to change the bios to a wrong sized one. I then installed a mod chip to get the box working again. My question is whether it is possible to soft mod this xbox even though the tsop doesn't work. I'm thinking not, but if so my end goal would be to softmod then re-flash the tsop.

Thanks for any clarification.

Your method is correct, and Movax is absolutely right about not leaving lines grounded or tied to 3.3V.

Here's what I'd do. Disconnect A19 from ground, connect a second wire to 3.3V, twist the two wires together, boot, softmod.

Boot with HeXEn, untwist the two wires, flash with X2.5035.
