What happen which I remove CFW from my Nintendo Switch lite with Picofly modchip? Can I use it as normal console?

Define remove CFW.
switch always work without AMS or HEKATE payload, unless OFW already been messed up

 

[PikachuPrincess23]

I mean remove jailbreak and use it as normal console without CFW. Like when you buy Nintendo Switch lite on store.

If OFW system is clean or always offline but dirty, you could restore/wipe system and install clean OFW then should not be any issue without mod.
Most case the console is 2nd hand and no full story/history can be traced, OFW may have ban potential

That's what I want to do and use Haku33 for to do it. I'm afraid to break my Nintendo Switch lite since it have modchip installed.

when you have prod.key and rawnand.bin(prodinfo mainly) bakcup, nand can be rebuild fresh,and nothing software would brick the console.

I don't have it since I buy it used but I can make a nand backup.

Simply make a backup any time when console still function, and keep those important files in different copies in different places, i.e PC and SDcard.
Never late to have one backup before it turns opposite being too late

Hi. I have a problem with booting linux on my OLED. I can't start it, and I get this: "Board was not initialized properly. Hang prevented..."

According to what I've found out so far, I need to update my modchip's firmware. I tried using Picofly_Toolbox, but I didn't flash anything, as I couldn't determine my version; it doesn't show anything when checking for the version. Later, I became confused about whether I even have a Pico and not something else because I get this screen when booting the console without an SD card:

As far as I know, it's supposed to something else (either a raspberry pi logo, or hekate's screen with "NO SD" text or something). Am I wrong? If not, can I update my modchip's firmware without unscrewing my device? And I've also read that one can update just the sd loader. Is this true? Thanks in advance!

that's a hwfly chip. picofly does not use boot.dat.

is it normal/accaptable that a oled switch glitches perefectly fine but every ~50th bootattempt results in booting to OFW instead of heakte. when it happens sometimes the oled boots to ofw a few times in a row, but then glitches to hekate perfectly fine again for the next 50 times. already raised dat0 resistor to 150ohms and reseated the dat0 adapter. at the end of the day the dat0 connection only touches a solderball/presses againsta solderball and isnt soldered to the sodlerball, so this behavior should be expected?

what is your expirience?

dat0 adapter issue. it can get lose overtime with many factors to consider. If you want permanent solution, you should do either reballing or kamikaze.

working on making a universal mosfet cable. have some coming in to check the fit. if it fits fine than it will end up on my github. if not, ill fix the fit and then release it. the pad for the wire is in the spot it is so you can just run the wire straight up and under the shielding

where is gate line should solder to? The front side rectangle ?

I would prefer solder point on back side in between 2 resistor so that the wiring wont seat on top of Nvidia base but outside of the edge

Hmmm thats an interesting idea
