I think I fried something on the motherboard while I was desoldering and resoldering a left analog stick replacement and now neither analog stick will read properly. On the calibration menu both go diagonally down + left.
Everything else works fine, they can click, but whatever on the mother board reads the rotational input isn't working.

Anyone know where I can get a replacement board?

you need to use flux on those solder pads, this very well may be your problem, I'd just apply a small amount of flux to where the points connect to the board and run your soldering iron over it again

I did, and I didn't touch the solder pads for the right analog stick which makes it weird both aren't working after soldering.

if you remove one thumbstick, the other will not work, had the same thing happen on a ps3 controller, the left thumbstick broke, so i completely removed it and both sticks failed to work.

    I thought PS4/5 and Xbox One emulation would be kind of easy since they basically just a PC
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    they sorta are a pc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik

    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They place married security chips onto boards iirc

  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the ps3 used to support installing linux because the cpu was so powerful

    Then the games are $70 and they want to reboot and refresh the same game every year

    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At one point PC game pads where poorly supported, loading a game had setup, it was complicated. Now it's almost as easy as a console.
