RROD after Kinect dash installed
Yes Tom me too RROD after the new dash installed,
one of my Falcons went IMMEDIATELY "hard bricked" 3 light RROD upon electrical restart after I supposedly installed the 12611 kernel while it had a cheap 3rd party Kingston USB (fat32) thumbstick in the front slot; and it has not recovered.
I unwisely took this massive 100mb--12611 udpate via XBOX live stream and it seemed very slow or sluggish in its download attempt and this hard bricked or RROD this Falcon console when the nand was probably not properly reflashed upon restart.
I bet that USB stick was the suspension trigger bug overeheated the ram chips and corrupted the nand/BGA
I observed 0110/e20 ram overheating error codes upon the first restart when it went RROD
This is somewhat rare for Falcons and this unit was a former RROD X-clamp console running perfectly for the last 12 months with extra cooling fans and NO microfreezing of games. As you know, ram overheating usually is often preceded by cronic microfreezing while the game is playing, which I didnt observer in this case.
My guess is that this USB--E71 bug also suspended the 12611 download in midstream
My other 4 consoles:
FALCON (former RROD)/ZEPHYR/XENON (former RROD)/JASPER consoles all took the 12611 literally twice as fast).
In turn this may have overeheated the ram or at the very least "corrupted" the non volitle ram so that when the Falcon restarted the new 12611 kernel was not fully installed and this 3-RROD lights reamains.
This kernel is buggy, so probbaly its best to install it via a burned CD rom instead of XBOX live or a USB thumb stick.
I bet that is why your console TOM went RROD, but was able to self recover becasue its newer..mine is an older January 2008 Faclon and yours is probably a newer Opus/Jasper etc..
