Huh?

t-maxxracer32 · 04:06 AM

ya sorry accidentally submitted it

haha..

anyways here are the links

I will be editing these pages a bit more before i put them out places (craigs list, colleges, etc)

also, I will be putting in my "company name" --elite modding-- somewhere on the document.

lemme know what you all think

BP-Revo · 03.02.2010, 04:11 AM

Sounds pretty cool.

The first thing I can think of is that you'll need some evidence of satisfied customers and also, you'll have to be comfortable with the fact that you may actually mess something up and lose money when you need to replace it, and you'll also have cases where someone will send you a broken xbox and then claim you broke it.

Just figured you should be prepared for that.

t-maxxracer32 · 04:27 AM

I have actually been doing this for a while so i do have some references that I could use if someone needed, and I know that not all xboxs can be fixed.

And like you said I am prepared to screw up a few boards in order to get this machine dialed in correctly. I have a freind who is willing to donate his board in order for me to figure out all the settings.

I figure I will have to make up some type of ........... i cant think of the word... basically a document that protects me

saying something like this

You are signing this form admitting that your xbox as of now is broken and in non working condition. If i cannot fix the xbox error and get it working correctly I will return the xbox in its original condition and all charges will be waved.

that is a roughhh draft.

Also in the next few weeks i will be making a website for this just so I can have customers go on and give their feedback of my services.

I really do hope that this will get me enough money to go the next few years without having to have another job (untill i graduate college.... 3 years roughly)

Thanks for your input!

t-maxxracer32 · 03.02.2010, 07:45 AM

My xbox has RROD. When can you fix it?

pinkpanda3310 · 03.02.2010, 08:33 AM

The word doc you made mentions the warranty, everyone knows this sort of stuff will viod the warranty but maybe you could be a little clearer for those that don't know or want to wrought the system.

You may well have that covered in the contract you write up for the customer.

My 2c, good luck anyway

lutach · 03.02.2010, 10:44 AM

I hope lincpimp or _paralyzed_ don't call you in the middle of the night

.

Let me know when you get the hang of things. Post a few pics of your reballing work. I have a few very expensive chips that will need some work done to them. I have a few places that does the work for me, but I can always help out a fellow RCM member.

For me to do some professional work to it I will have to wait a few weeks for my machine to come in then another week or so for me to get the hang of it..

I will update this thread once I have perfected my technique.

I have to admit.....The thread title through me for a loop, I thought you bought a mail order Ho....

suicideneil · 03.02.2010, 05:29 PM

Your website neeeds more pictures of actual 360s- remember, sex sells, so sexy 360s and cutaway pictures with details of what you are able to fix ( bullet points and lines basically ) would be cool.

lincpimp · 03.02.2010, 05:52 PM

Krylon fusion on the controllers? Hope so as regular paint will not stick without some sort of adhesion promoter. I would use bulldog adhesion promoter and the krylon fusion. And wipe them down really good with some alcohol/prepsol.

For 40 bucks I might send you mine, and it still works.

scarletboa · 03.02.2010, 06:19 PM

only $40 for a rrod fix? my xbox has the rrod and it's still under warranty, but i would rather get a permanent fix and send it to you. let me know when you get that machine dialed in.

just a quick question:

my xbox has the e74 error. you can fix that right? i was told it isn't the typical rrod.

I cant figure out how to put pictures that can be viewed without clicking on links.. go to my "home" on my website and you will see the link that i have provided and it will take you to my logo. I tried adding the picture with htlm coding, img coding, direct link, etc but nothing seems to make the picture come up without having to click on a link

maybe you know how to do this?

But yes.. you are right! i need more pics and info.

I actually airbrush all controllers.. so the paint sticks hella good.
Then i clear coat it with krylon fusion clear coat..

A freind of mine had told me the same thing about how i should use some type of adhesion promoter so i will look more into it.

If you would like me to mod your controller hit me up and lemme know what all you want done!

Well if you think about it.. you pay about 12 for shipping to me then 12 for shipping back. Also if i need more parts to fix it the prices will adjust accordingly.. but generally no other parts will be needed.

what do you think a good price would be for me to charge?

In the past I have fixed almost every issue with the 2 methods I used.. reflowing the board and the xclamp fix..

so yes, my methods shouldd fix the e74 problem.
