I have the smartxx chip with the solderless hook up. It keeps coming loose. Is there anything I can do to make it stay in place? I would like to put my cover on but than I would have to take it off all the time to press on my chip

I bought the solderless extra thing so i would not need to solder. I heard it can mess up the xbox if done wrong. Plus I dont even have a solder pen

Go to you rlocal hardware store and pick up some silicone bathroom caulk, (get clear so you can verfify the pin position) Allign your pin then aplly a heallthy dab of silicone over the pin and motherboard area. go ahead, be sloppy. Once cured this stuff is totally dielectric, meaning it wont short anything. I use this on all my modded boxes for solderless and soldered alike. It prevents shorts and gives the d0 wire a little more holding power. _________________ XBOX v1.1

In the last three months I have seen more people screw up their motherboard with solderless installs than by soldering.
They keep scratching traces while trying to adjust/align the solderless adapter.
