Building the image

Building the image is the step where your clean NAND dump becomes the modified flash that unlocks the console. J-Runner with Extras does the heavy lifting, combining your original dump, your console's CPU key, and the chosen method into a single image ready to write back.

What goes into the image

• Your original NAND dump, so the new image keeps everything specific to this console.
• The CPU key, which ties the image to this exact machine and no other.
• The method's boot logic, whether that is JTAG, an RGH variant, or R-JTAG.

The overview

1. Load the dump
   Point J-Runner at your verified original NAND and CPU key.
2. Pick the method
   Select the matching method for your console and hardware.
3. Build
   Let J-Runner assemble the modified image.
4. Write
   Flash the finished image back with your NAND programmer.

After the modified image is written, power the console on to boot XeLL and confirm the install took.
