What is RGH3?:

RGH 3 is a new method to glitch your XBOX 360 console. This method only requires 2
wires and some resistors. No glitch chip required.

What consoles work with RGH3?:

Phat motherboards

Jasper (16mb/256mb/512mb)
Falcon

NOTE: RGH3 is very hit or miss on some phat consoles. If you have
issues, or strange booting behaviour, your console might not be playing
nice with RGH3 and I would strongly advise using RGH1.2.

Slim motherboards

Trinity
Corona (v1 – v6)

Need help understanding what console you have? Use Octal’s Xbox 360 Identification
Wizard!

Things you'll need:

Tools:

A basic toolkit which includes torx bits

A device to read the consoles nand (xFlasher, NAND-X, JR-Programmer, MTX
Flasher, Raspberry Pi Pico)
Some 28-30awg wrapping wire

A soldering iron and some soldering experience as you’ll be working with tiny
points.
NOTE: Corona V3/V4/V5/V6 motherboards will need a Post Fix
Adapter, if you are unsure please follow this diagram:

Resistors and diodes:

All Phats: 1x 1n4148 (or similar) Diode

All Phats: 1x 22k Resistor: (Brown, Black, Orange, Yellow)
Trinity: 1x 3k-10k Resistor: (Brown, Black, Orange, Gold)
Corona: 1x 1k Resistor: (Brown, Black, Red, Gold)

Raspberry Pi Pico:

If you want to use the Raspberry Pi Pico – make sure you are using the latest version of
Octal450’s J-Runner with Extras or Balika011’s J-Runner Pro. 

You will also need to flash your Raspberry Pi Pico with the latest version of PicoFlasher
which can be found here: https://github.com/X360Tools/PicoFlasher/releases/

Flashing your Pico with UF2 file:

1. Simply hold the BOOTSEL button down on your Pico and plug into your computer,
it should show up as removable storage.
2. Click and drag the UF2 file to the Pico in your file explorer. The device should
automatically unmount on completion.
3. Now, load up J-Runner and you should see PicoFlasher come up as connected
device. Once you see this, follow through with steps below!

Steps:

Step 1: Tear down your console to the motherboard, follow guides on YouTube if you get
stuck!

Step 2: Once torn down, solder your NAND headers to your console. Here are some
diagrams for each console variation

NAND header locations:

Phat motherboards
Trinity motherboards
Corona motherboards
JR-P / NAND-X / xFlasher 360

PicoFlasher

Step 3: Once you connect your NAND reader cables, wire up your RGH3 cables. See below
for install points.

RGH3 install diagrams:

Phat motherboards
Trinity motherboards
Corona motherboards
Place a 22k resistor on the PLL point and solder your wire to the other side of the resistor.

Place a 1n4148 diode with the cathode end (black banded end) on POST and solder your
wire to the other side of the Diode.

Step 4: Once you are happy with the points, they are connected properly, and your NAND
cables are installed, it’s time to glitch the console!
Give your console standby power and and connect
your programmer. Follow the steps
below.

J-Runner instructions:

Step 1 - Identify console

Step 2 - Read NAND
Step 3 - Create ECC
Step 4 - Write ECC
Step 5 - Get CPU
Step 6 - Create XeBuild Image
Step 7 - Write XeBuild Image

To begin – press the ‘?’ button in J-Runner to make sure your programmer can see your
console properly.
If you get an error
– check your programmer wires before continuing!
