HWFLY chips will brick your OLED. Here is how to avoid it

First things first, I should start by saying that if you have an OLED-specific clone chip you're fine.

Anyways, all HWFLY Lite chips come with Spacecraft v1. For those that don't know, Spacecraft v1 sets certain pins to 5V that shouldn't be set to that on an OLED.

You can find more info in the readme of my application here: https://github.com/Pheeeeenom/payloadchecker

All this application does is check the payload that's currently written and checks it to verified hashes stored in the program.

Steps to follow are:

Boot hekate
Dump BOOT0
Check it on application

If you have a genuine modchip, update it to the latest Spacecraft v2 before you install it into an OLED.

The OLED-specific modchip also comes with broken USB debugging, if you want to fix this issue you will need to write this repaired firmware binary.

Realistically, all those dead on install consoles may as well be installation issues, the OLED install isn't a walk in the park, most people will not know how to install those properly, points on the board are tiny as well, all it takes is bridging the wrong pins.

That said, it's not a good idea to supply wrong voltages to begin with and we do not know how far tolerance extend, for all we know it's well within spec but it might not be, either way you risk damaging your console, especially long term if you do not apply proper voltages, as such I would not recommend running a firmware that's not designed for Aula in mind on an OLED console.
I agree with you, many console dead is because of installation of mod chip. Untill now nothing console dead because issue 5v of hwfly with v1 spacecraft fw... tell me if had

Is this account even legit?
It's so sad you'll defend a batch of dangerous products just because you want to sell them.
Instead, accept the fact you need to allow flashing and start using the new version of spacecraft asap, or no one will be buying from you at all ever again.
I've checked. Seems legit.

This is my intention, force them. Of course, I'll check it too.

For a quick tutorial.... just incase the app doesn't get updated:

To check this yourself you can look at the following... below is an image of the payloads used in v1 and v2 spacecraft. left is v1, right is v2

Dump your BOOT0, go to offset 0x3F0000

and compare your values...it's very straightforward.

in this example, it's v2

in our parlance, the V3 chip (third generation), not the V3 firmware, we do not know the built-in firmware version when purchasing

hey y'all - been following (lurking) the discussion above. I also thought I had a HWFly Lite w/ spacecraft v1 in my OLED at first but the program wouldn't run on my BOOT0 so I also checked my offset 0x3F0000... looks like it's actually on v2? :huh:
