Got a RP2040 Tiny PicoFly modded OLED. When I went to disconnect the battery, all 5 of the pads came up with the connector. Fixed that, but now I'm not getting a charge. No charging indicator, and the battery reads over 100% in Hekate. Install is good, boots into Hekate no problem. No slow emmc error or anything. But can't get past that. After Atmosphere or Nintendo screen, I just get a black screen. I was told I need to replace the fuel gauge IC, but just wanted to get more eyes on this. Thanks in advance.

if all your board traces are ok and no shorts on your repair, you already have the solution: replace Charge IC, could be damaged when soldering or ripping the connector of battery.

Had to use those circular pads around it to fix it and have continuity from those to the pins on the connector, so hopefully that's just the problem. Still waiting on parts.

sysNAND or emu?

You need to boot to OFW at least once it should correct your battery reading if your components aren't faulty.
Black screen isn't always noticeable by slow eMMC, even if you don't have that you may still get it.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
