    Hardware N3DS no sound after fix, only camera shutter sound

    Recently I bought a used N3DS. Nintendo sent it back to the original owner from service that they could not fix it. They said that a flex cable should be replaced, and I wonder why they refused the repair. So: I figured that the speaker ribbon is the one at fault, since the prev. owner had...

    Hardware PS4 Pro no power / lights (lightning damage)

    Sourced from local marketplace for cheap. Power supply is trash. Someone tried to "fix" it. The main board has no _apparent_ sign of damage. When pressing the power button (5VSB, GND, ACIN_DET&STBY present from ps4 slim psu) no beeps/lights appear. When introducing the 12v to the main board the...

    Hacking Process of the eMMC backup and restore in Hekate? Are backups en-, or decrypted?

    I have a patched switch, which is bricked. I mixed up a few eMMCs during a repair, and one burned an eFuse in this patched switch. I was able to bring the others back to life (since they were unpatched), but not this one. I am literally pulling my hair out. So, let the fun begin: I made a NAND...

    I bought this switch used, and someone tried to fix it (there are minor scratches on the board, probably from tweezers, but nothing dangerous). Touch controller SDA&SCL are 0v when the switch is turned on, not pulled to 0 ohm after turning off. The right joycon charges, but wont register when...

    Hacking Question Bought a faulty board, NO BOOT0/1, unknown PKG1, no BISkeys

    I bought a "faulty" board from ebay. No charging symbol, no Nintendo logo. MT92T36 and BQ chip was replaced by original owner/shop. I had to redo these, they did a rather sloppy job. Seller sent it with the eMMC plugged in the wrong way. RCM OK, boots Hekate IPL. BQ reports correctly, MT...
