But the problem is, when the switch is docked the usb port is already occupied.That's the point of it. A mod will automate the entire process
Thats a great idea. I will modify the design and add the diode and a jumper for bypassing it for experimentation purposes. Another method to achieve this could be to toggle the pin as a high impedance input after RCM is booted, that way it would be practically invisible to the switch, even without the diode.Thanks, appreciate it!
btw: thought about having a "real Tristate" behaviour for Pin10?
This will only need a Diode in Serial to Pin 10 to avoid Detection of the Pullup Resistors of the uC..
very cool now this is something i would love to install and testThat's the point of it. A mod will automate the entire process
I added the R pad for compatibility with software for rebugs modchip, haven't really looked for a reset signal. Current plan is to read from an always on power supply like the ram supply, that should be a pretty good way to ensure that the chip only runs on power on and not when you wake it up from sleep.I look forward to seeing it progress. Where can you find a reset signal?
Cool sounds good, but what about reboot?I added the R pad for compatibility with software for rebugs modchip, haven't really looked for a reset signal.

Shouldn't be that difficult to handle, I'll take some measurements with my scope to be sure.Cool sounds good, but what about reboot?
Yeah, that's also what I've decided on. I was just a dofus and didn't read the reswitched hardware documentation properly, I found it odd that no reset TP was discovered, until i took the time to read it properlyProbably only tapping the Reset Line on the Switch Mobo would be enough (if accessable) - Flag NSW Reset Low>High - Go for VID/PID > Payload
Maybe. We'll see when i get the prototypesSo, off the wall question, but are you against streaming your progress? Ktemin does something like this and it's insanely interesting to watch the progress live.
I like that idea. Having all the information in one place makes it so much easier for the end user.Kate from the Reswitched team has made a general repository to collect various mod chip designs. When you progress enough, you may consider doing a pull request to add your design to the repo.

That might be useful, I will contact you if I need programming assistance. Not my biggest strengthHey if you need any testers or assistance let me know. I’ve got pretty decent soldering experience and a background in programming. I can obviously send proof if needed.

And some updates. I will soon be finished with my exams this will allow a lot more time for this project.
I'm adding a 16MB SPI flash - very large payloads!
I've also considered adding bluetooth, which would enable configuration and payload uploads from your phone at any time. Maybe even firmware update!
And I'm still waiting for a proper tri wing screwdriver i ordered, already stripped more screws than I'm comfortable admitting.
I will release the hardware as soon as it's done, and then I will get to work on the software.
