    Hacking Hardware Modchip installation failed, ripped off a capacitor with its pad. Is this fixable?

    If I remember correctly, it should work just by ignoring this soldering point Since these are power connections, 1 cap is enough, 2 caps for redundancy. Also, before considering to ignore the cap, you can see if the ripped off pad is the ground pad. If ground pad is ripped off, simply fix it...

    Hacking Hardware Modchip installation failed, ripped off a capacitor with its pad. Is this fixable?

    Which cap is this exactly? With 1 pad only, the cap is not connected. And it looks like that the pads might still be there. Also, by looking at the result on the other caps, the iron tip isn't giving enough heat for the soldering. This is also the reason why you rip the cap off in the first...

    Joycon not Working but the sound of click when i plug

    Do you have another switch with working rails to testify it? The step to test the continuity also tested the possibility to have a bad FPC connector Continuity of the test points on the board to the 10 pins should verify that

    Issues after restoring nand and updating to fw 17+

    Another approach might be just backup the nand you now have in the emmc Mark it carefully e.g. DonorNANDwithMyProdinfoFW18.0 Then try to do the NAND restore with lower version fw like 10.0 or 12.0 Best is to match your original version E.g. my switch got bricked when it had FW12.2, I tried...

    Joycon not Working but the sound of click when i plug

    To begin with, I usually start by making sure that all pins on joy con and the tablet are working. 10 pins on both sides, making them 20 pins in total, although many are ground pins Look for bent pins or dirty pins Then test continuity by test points If all good, then I will test the chips Do...

    Hardware [Question] V1 Type-C port installed with jump wires

    Thank you for the recommendation, but I found that it's not feasible in my case. First is its price, second is that I don't really need a "normal" Nintendo Switch. Anyways, I would like to know if the jump wires matter in the case. I had all points' continuous tests passed but the type C port...

    Hardware [Question] V1 Type-C port installed with jump wires

    This board came from someone tried but failed to swap the type C port. Instead, he ripped off some soldering pads on the board. As seen in attached photo "TypeC_Trace", result of me trying to repair the broken trace by both jump wires(too thin?) and repairing pads(too thin in another way?)...

    Hardware Joycon pin 5 stays high

    To be precise, I replaced the connector at the upper left corner in the figure. 1693972623 I also found that normal diode voltage from pin 5 to pin 6 should be 1.8V, same as the high state voltage. But the malfunction board has diode voltage of 0V 1693990124 After a few hours of checking, it’s...

    Hardware Joycon pin 5 stays high

    I have a joycon having pin5 staying at high when it's plugged into the switch. I need to manually short it to ground to bring it to low, then the switch sounds "click", and the wired connection is done. Once the joycon is disconnected, it goes to wireless mode. When it's connected back, pin5...

    for all you can eat or oc2 just use ReverseNX to force handheld mode, i.e. 720p with overclocked cpu and gpu but make sure that your swich console can also handle the heat from overclocking i feel like almost 70% of time, the switch can handle 60fps at 720p with overclocking but in the end, i...

    Init eMMC Failed, no NAND backups

    In case someone like me uses file base emunand instead of partition method emuMMC. We have our emummc system broken by 14.0+ in file 00 which should be located somewhere like sd root/ emummc/HPE0/eMMC/00 alongside files 01, BOOT0, BOOT1 this cannot be mounted by Hekate through the USB method...

    Tutorial NAND Rebuilding (for no backup / broken eMMC)

    Which step were you at exactly? Step 12 is quite long. It seems that your eMMC GPP isn't correctly connected to computer Have you use a Hekate payload injected directly from PC? Hekate loaded by chain loader may not work

    Hacking Question Will the OLED Switch be SX-Core compatible?

    not slightly different already lol the board has different in most parts. Only similar internal parts are the fan, battery, and the part of the board under battery.

    Injecting Payloads just gives black screen.

    "Smashed the stack with a 0x0000 byte SETUP request!" An ipatched unit will give this "0x0000" thing RCM mode activated =/= hackable an unpatched unit will give "0x7000" in this line if i remember correctly. So it's a V1 patched Switch

    Hardware Components used on the Switch (mostly the motherboard and main console)

    Hello, I would like to know the resistor value pointed by light blue arrow in the picture (Fig.1). The board I'm dealing with is really messed up by the last owner at the same resistor (Fig.2). I guess he was trying to solder the trinket M0 It booted OFW normally, and cannot boot into CFW due to...

    Hacking Question Will the OLED Switch be SX-Core compatible?

    It seems that Nintendo doesn't really care as long as it's a modchip version. They only block the softmod is enough Then just sue anyone who produce the modchip. lol

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
