If you're getting E79, it usually means you have bad blocks that need to be remapped. In other words, you should always be remapping your bad blocks. Failure to do so (or to let JRunner do this automatically) could mean seeing E79 more often.
ok i managed to get a working nand , but now I have an issue of the controller cutting out every few minutes . gets really annoying. is this a keyvault issue? the nand i was using before i updated didnt have this issue , could i use this keyvault?
the nand that worked before the update found a bad block at 277 and remapped to 3FF. but this nand is no longer working. im thinking its not remapping the 276 block at all. When i go to erase the nand via jrunner it has a error erasing block 276 but only fails to write 277.
yeah good idea swiz. how do i go about doing this manually before i make the the image? i have seen the nand pro tool in xebuild but i dont know what to do after i remap each block. i have never manually remapped blocks myself so any help would be greatly appreciated
Start of by doing a image without remapping (i recommend using the "Extract vitals" function of xeBuild GUI, this makes the output image 100% free of any remapping schemes, otherwise you have to tell xeBuild to ignore remapping AND ECD remapping
Well ive tried a few things and nothing seems to work for me, I can update that working nand to newest kernel and it works just fine , the controller issue is still present. i also cant plug in a wired controller , just wont connect , im able to use usb to flash via xell , but nothing seems to be working with usb at the moment.
I don't trust JRunner to flash nands properly, i recommend using NANDPro, xeBuild GUI only launches NANDPro per your specifications with the appropriate parameters while JRunner sports it's own direct support, but it's dodgy like most other functions in JRunner... (with my experience JRunner really don't do much properly, i can make it crash ALOT in just a few seconds...)
it seems anything I try and do dosent work. I used xebuild and nand pro to do it this time as well. even with the updated dash that's working , I cant use any portals for games (lego dimensions , infinity) they dont work. wired xbox controller wont connect. and wiresless controller keeps dropping connection.
You missunderstand. In j-runner there is an option for writing for Xecuter Fusion, because when you create the image, jrunner hasnt mapped the bad blocks in the image, so they need remapped on the fly.
Try this to fix your problem. Build the image without the noremap option, so it remembers the block it cant read, but thinks it can write, and use xecuter fusion option to write nand. This way it is forced to remap both bad blocks, as one will already be remapped in the nand image, and the other will be remapped on the fly by the fusion option. In therory this should work, but i cant guarantee it wont remap the 2nd bad block over the 1st remapped bad block.
well I rebuilt the image with no remap selected. should I of seen the bad block info anywhere?. it didnt detect anything about 276. anyways built the image, then flashed with fusion. it found 277 and remapped to 3FF. this is the nand that was working before and had the bad block info for 276, so this was remapped already to 3FF? ive tried to manually remap 276 to 3FE and let jrunner map 277 to 3FF, still no success. also tried remapping both and writing without remapping.
So i took two copies of the nand that worked and compared , it remapped the bad blocks (only has 276 data), i then fusion wrote so it would remap the 277 block. xbox booted up fine, still have controller issue. I then tried taking the nand and manually remapping 276 to 3FF and 277 to 3FE. booted up again but still have controller issues. everytime i try and put a new kv into my nand i get error on boot. i had this problem a few years ago when i updated and i fixed it by injecting a new KV and patching it. now nothing seems to work. i would rather not use the xbox then have controllers drop connecting every few minutes.
figured it all out . basically........I stopped using J runner like swizzy suggested from the beginning. I used 360 flash tool for inserting KV's and i used Xebuild to patch the KV and build an updated image. and I wrote with nandpro in xebuild. everything works fine again!
