Hacking Can someone recommend an easy way to short pin 10 without taking apart the joycon?

Wait am I supposed to send him a message ? His store front is empty

I see four things listed

I ordered 3 on ebay for $4 shipped. If this doesn't work out I'll just buy a R joycon and solder the points together. I guess alternately you can use wire glue with a fine tip.

That's my plan. I could've gone for getting f0f's jig printed but I figured I was going to get another set of joycons anyway and I might as well. In addition to that Shapeways declined my order saying that the right wall of the jig was weak and could be prone to warping during the printing process. Here's hoping your guy is able to print them correctly and if not then it was only $4.

Has anyone removed the rail to see if it's easier to accomplish that way? None of my Phillips screwdrivers are sharp enough.

Yup. I just ordered a R joycon for $30 just in case too haha.

Here's a link to his post. As mentioned mention Ronhero since he already has the 3d print

Because i'm based in France. Nevermind

dont do it like me and fuck up your joycon bending and messing with the flatcables

 

[kevin corms]

to those buying right joycons, does the joycon need to be an older model? I figure if they are changing the hardware of the switch they must be changing the joycon as well.

If you're in France just search 3d print service on ebay and ask. Not sure if ebay has a france site

why should they need to change the joycons... they just need to update the tegra soc.

anyone in the UK/EU want one made I can make them

not sure if I will do the microusb part, but that should be easy enough for people to do....although I guess if demand is high enough I will see

I'm sure he's scratching his head wondering why so many people are messaging him wanting that specific piece. You definitely got a good deal on that joycon. I wanted the red joycons which are pretty pricey compared to the nonpopular colors. (Thankfully my employee discount brought them down from $76 to $69. Free one day shipping so I'll have them tomorrow!)

It has probably been stated before but I must've missed it while reading the 5+ threads; Will the joycon function normally even when the two points are bridged (I'd imagine it would if it's connected to the system after boot.) or will that R joycon forever boot it into RCM until the wire is taken out?

same here would prefer a complete solution. not that good in regard of soldering.

it will work just fine. it will only boot rcm if v+ is pressed.

its not that i cant solder but those points are to small and i got hugh hands so its complicated messing with tiny parts

(end result is the same, we arent confident enough to do it ourself)

If you live in europe (and/or presumably the US) you can use the following tutorial (and promo code) to order a 3D print of the shell of the fail0verflow jtag thingy for around 4 EUR (~USD) shipped.

You then have to supply and glue in your own micro-usb connector.

The .stl file to upload can be found here: https://github.com/fail0verflow/shofel2/raw/master/rcm-jig/rcm-jig.stl

He was warned prior to me referring him. He knows what they are used for haha.

Yeah and its green so ill associate that with green means go CFW.

If i read it correctly it will function normally but will activate only when usb and vol + are hit
