I am looking for someone in the Netherlands that offers install service. Looking for install of chips in both a Mariko unit and a switch lite.
you.... didn't remove the thermal paste before soldering?!I just installed my sx core and its working. Its my first ever soldering work. Didnt even practice xD. The solder points were tiny as hell. I didnt think it was going to be that hard. I used tons of flux and just solder at 350ºC. gg

From your Picture, it looks like your ancher points were not soldered to the shielding-frame.Got the core working after the first try!
A friend soldered it under a microscope, he recommended 330*C as soldering temperature.
This evening I'm reassembling everything. I can't find kapton tape so I'll be using teflon tape to protect the SP1 and SP2 solders.
I remember to have read that SX OS on emunand has Incognito on by default? If I would boot into OFW could I get seasonal updates in animal crossing with relative safety? Does it remove the device info somewhere?

Only the NRO of Incognito works for SX Core right now.
I used the double sided tape method from one of the installation videos a few pages back.
What does nro stand for? I can't find much on google.
edit:
It's stealth mode (no connection to nintendo servers) that is on by default on SX OS CFW.
Still learning the ins and outs of this thing
The NRO is a homebrew package sort of speak. You need the HBmenu to open them.What does nro stand for? I can't find much on google.
I would always attach the anchor points no matter if I use double sided tape or not. As far as I remember they are also used as Ground for the ribbon (and some of the components?). This may not be necessary, but it's kind of designed like this and I am better safe than sorry.
