My WODE Gamecube Original
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Well I put GNDs wires and the same problem persist. I mount a Wii drive and flat wode its work, the wode malfunction is discard. Analysing the problem I have arrived to this observation: Where is the pin numbering of the wode and wiikey/wasp DVD port begins? In the tutorials of Ashen this important thing is not indicate, only the wii dvd and host port of wode-wiikey/wasp.
I Made both cables identical and connect these follow the same numeration pattern of the host-wii dvd ports. However, when I connected the wii drive, i observed the flex position and I think the numbering of both ports in wode-wiikey/wasp are reversed, maybe to follow a line (flat). Anyone confirm if I'm right? Because maybe the problem is all wires in dvd port connector are in incorrect number position (reversed) then pin 1 is not that pointing the arrow at the dvd port, really is the 32.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
1 is next to "DVD"
32 is next to J4
32 is next to J4

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Thanks megalomaniac, all wires are in incorrect place. I work to fix it. Tomorrow post my results. I have another question. I read clean rip not made a 100% rip with xeno and this chip it be off before use clean rip. How i do it? I read about connect gnd to pin reset in the xeno with on/off swich. Or disconnect the vcc. Please explain me.
Thanks bro.
Thanks bro.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
If I remember correctly a Xeno wont even work with a WODE, only a WKF

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Finally i made it! GD Drive its works! The problem was all wires are inverted in the number position (1 in 29, 3 in 28, etc) on DVD cable. This error arises from the fact that the numbering of all wires and was not directly stated in the tutorials (at least i not see it). I builded every cable exactly to the Ashen tutorial, following the same numeration he is indicates. I thought it was the same for both cables. A fool error on mi part.

YEAH!
Thanks for all advice and the patience to respond me.
I also removed the bridge between pin 32 (which was actually 1) and vcc 3.3v on DVD port in WODE because it was wrong.
Megalomaniac, my GC drive have a xeno, i am thinking in not dismount it, therefore i made my question about disable it. I know it's no longer necessary because the Swiss, but i want keep it to avoid me the work of dismount, and for others tests. Please tell me what method is safe to disable xeno to make cleans rips, and reactivate it, one time the rip is finish. I thinking build the reset pin to GND. Please advise me. Thanks Bro.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
just make contact with reset and GND
thats it
solder leads to a switch so you can hold it in "off" state until you are done with rip

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Thanks again megalomaniac. Finally i can work in the Wode screen position on GC. I actualize the first post with the information about the dvd connector problem. I hope you like it. soon i post my progress about the screen.
See ya!
See ya!
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
If you upgrade the Xeno firmware, Swiss will automatically disable it, allowing you to boot DVD backups in flatmode without booting Swiss since you have the Xeno.
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Thanks Streetwalker for the advice, Did you explain me the process to upgrade xeno please? Or maybe post a link i can it read. Thanks a lot.
Greetings.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
The procedure is on the wiki. It's basically a matter of setting the reset switch on the Xeno and running a DOL.
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Alright, i see the wiki http://www.gc-forever.com/wiki/index.ph ... noGC_Clone and this post viewtopic.php?f=15&t=439&start=96. But i have a question again. What version of dol it's required? Are varied and do not know which one to use. If you can, or another one clarify me more deeply, really appreciate it. Thanks again.
See ya!
See ya!
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
download/file.php?id=282
Download this, the DOL to use is the one at the root of the archive (name's XenoFlash or XenoFlash1.05, something along these lines).

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Ok. I will try to flash the xeno later and post my results. Soon show my work about the Wode screen position. Very thanks to you and all for your help to solve these problems in my mod. I really apreciate it.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Glad you got it sorted in the end. It will be interesting to see the end result.
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Hello guys sorry for the absence, i was sick the entire week, and didn't worked these days in my GC mod. Today i feel better and start my work again. This is my idea about the place of the other board of wode in my gamecube.
To make it, i decide to sacrifice this little original piece of GC to make the board sustain.
i cut this piece in three parts, First separate this.
Later cut the rest in the middle and solder every one over GNDs points on WODE board, then bend to coincide with these holes.
On the other hand, i use the 80 wire ide cable to connect again the SD port.
Bent the cable to fit properly on this site and reach the wode.
I will place the USB port next to the SD. Working on it.
Under construction.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Yeah that piece you used connects the controller board's ground to the RF shield. Which is useless because ground is already connected to the motherboard through the FFC.
Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Hello guys, sorry the adsense, many life occupations. I Worked again yesterday in my mod and here show my progress.
The final site to play Wode screen is the GC disc Cover. I not yet decided the site for the stick selector. I not sure to place it in the GC cover, beside the Wode screen or in another place. While I solve the dilemma, show i did for now:
I solder directly the new 30 pin flex in the Wode screen flex to lengthen it. And to pass the flex, i made various groove hole in these places it shows in the photos.
Finally, i bent the flex, with the necessary measures to cover the distance to where i locate the Wode Screen Card.
And this is the cable with the Stick and backlight connections, these place is provisional in case to place the stick in the disc cover. It pass for the back side of the Screen flex, using the same holes.
And these is the Sd an usb location.
Greetings.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
That's some quality soldering, where you connected the 2 FCC cables together
Most people including myself would probably end up melting both FCC's trying that.

Re: My WODE Gamecube Original
Sick project, very unique ideas. I dig the placement of the wode screen. Would be cool if you could somehow fit a modded crystal over the screen to make it look even cleaner but still see the display.
