This not like loading a new bin which a 5 year old can do and we know how many seemingly smart folks can't even do that . I think if you have to ask how to make and hook up a JTag cable by now in this hobby then you should run away from this project. When you end up with no display and your 700 appears to be completely dead do you know how to get it back???? If your answer to this question is anything but absolutely YES , not "maybe!" or "I think so" Then you are getting in way over your head and if you do end up with a major problem you could be standing in a long line of beggars asking for someone to bail you out Good luck on that.
give me a break bud jtagging is simple , i agree that its not a simple as loading a bin, but it is a simple operation that most people can due. With you writting this post you are discurraging many people in going ahead with the process. If they follow the steps they should have no problem. There a many different types or receivers out there and i have to admite that i have not done a ariza but i have done many others and their basicly all the same aside from the soldering points .

So all you people that are wundering if you have what it takes to do the jtag operation i say go ahead its not that difficult you really dont have much to lose.
