@Stream_Monstering
My suggestion is forced 360 mode(press 3P) and plugged it on PC.

1202

Thanks! Iā€™ll reply later when I get to a PC, but I got you.

I was going to say if you update on a PC without issue and you get a bsod when itā€™s done, it has to do with the xb1 drivers. I would recommend holding 1p 2p or 3p during the update. It will fail verification, but the update will go through and youā€™ll know it when your joy.cpl says youā€™re in either ā€œP3 wired controllerā€ or ā€œXbox controllerā€ or whatever 360 mode says.

If you got that far, youā€™ll be fine. Just remember to always hold 3p while plugging in for xinput (360) mode. Youā€™ll work fine on consoles as well.

Coming soon to make the Brook UFB super easy to install in a TE2 :slight_smile:

1205

Based on the PS3/4 version. Specifically, I ised the blue Chun Li variant.

I tried it before, it didnā€™t work. Thanks though!

@Vicko Will give this a try tomorrow and let you know! Thanks!

  1. Start up the firmware updater
  2. Hold down PS & Share/Select buttons
  3. When update starts hold 1p, 2p, or 3p button
  4. See what happens nextā€¦

Seem right? lol $215 for making shit look cool haha, ohwell i deserve it

1209

Can anyone confirm the quoted?

Thank you :wink:

1210

connect USBVCC from turbo into your vcc screw terminal so your LEDs are brighter
you have no GND from what I can tell coming from turbo, so run that as well
nix turbo and use it for touch for more practical use, but thatā€™s your choice
if youā€™re going to use turbo, connect any of the leftover pins to TBLED so you can see that turbo is active

otherwise, everything is fine.

1211

So I got a Brook board on the way but I have decided to use a ribbon cable solution on this TE mod and see how it goes. That being said, can anybody help me figure out some of the following:

  1. What is the pitch (the spacing between the holes) on J9? Iā€™m looking at a standard 20 pin connector like this: http://www.digikey.ca/short/38hzf5

  2. Likewise, what is the pitch on J5, J4, J7, and J8? Iā€™m looking at terminal blocks like this: http://www.digikey.ca/short/38hzwz

Other than that, everything else looks straightforward. Hopefully Iā€™ll have all my material in by next weekend so I can get started!

1212

2.54mm J9/USB/DPLSRS

2.0mm Everything else.

1213

Has anyone figured out what J2 is for? If mic/headset, can we wire it up?

1214

@pApArOACh
No function ā€¦

1215

Itā€™s for the touch pad tracking which the firmware update has not yet been released

1216

I figured you would be making an ez board for the te2. Didnā€™t think it would be only for the ps4 te2. No love for the 360 or xb1 te2?

1217

Iā€™m sure it will probably work, I have to check the pin outs of the aux panel though. Since the PS4 got the major FGC releases I predict the PS4 version of the stick is a more popular buy.

Adapting the EZ Mod to support alt pinouts isnā€™t hard though, a universal TE2 EZ MOD is achievable. I suspect that there are almost 0 differences in the tooling of the case, so fit should be spot on.

1218

Yeah the cases are exactly the same. The only difference is the turbo panels in all versions.

@Stream_Monstering

For anyone getting the Blue Screen of Death (iusb3hub.sys), I found a solution that worked for me. I think it was a previously posted solution in this same thread, but I canā€™t find it now.

Control Panels -> Programs -> Uninstall a program -> Uninstall INTEL USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver

My problem was that after plugging in my stick, I would immediately get the BSOD. My computer would try to reboot, but wouldnā€™t be able to unless I removed the stick. I tried updating my motherboardā€™s chip drivers, USB drivers, and the BIOS but none of those fixed the issue.

Some more info on my stick:
I have an Eightarc Ebony Fusion and the PCB died just recently, so I ordered the Brook board. The Eightarc PCB previously worked on my PC without any issues. Now with the Brook PCB I just have to hold the P3 button down to get my computer to recognize it (as stated by other posts).

1220

sorry if this get a bit bulky but i have a whole bunch of questions as this is my first time modding a stick.
its xbox one razer atrox that ill be putting a UFB in. I got a UFB with all headers on its way from PAS.

i dont have my own soldering iron so im trying to avoid any soldering if possible.
id also like to get as much functionality back as possible.

  1. what is this for?

  2. im looking at changing the power cord so i can plug a usb into the UFB instead of soldering the wire there currently.
    iā€™ve unscrewed everything. see here. but it doesnt actually come off. do i have to unscrew the back or something. this thing here?
    if i cant change it to a usbā€¦ i should be able to just cut the wires already soldered to board, strip them back and put a pin connector on it to plug into UFB, right?

  3. am i able to get both of these working? frontside / backside

  4. this wire is for the lid button led i believe. am i able to plug that into the UFB?

  5. i was going to use the pre-existing cabling for the buttons. 1 pre-existing quick disconnect per button and then make a daisy chain for the grounds. is this right?
    also any tips for unplugging the connector from the pcb? i feel like if pull any harder i might break something lol.

any help is much appreciated, thanks!
