Hacking Sx Core and Sx Lite , test Units Received

[Switch_Maniac]

sux that they never were able to update SX OS now you have to fuck around with solder and dismantling your switch also it's no longer plug and play

What are you talking about? Updating SX would not just make it work on a patched/Mariko or Lite.There is no other way to mod them. Hence this chip being developed.

I am wondering what hardware exploit they are using , main clock? Timing atack?

Wouldn't that conflict with the heatpipe? Or does it go over it?

The left side of the flex piece looks like a ribbon, is the right side the part you solder? Do both of these circle+arrow areas indicate soldering?

 

[SecureBoot]

As someone who has limited soldering ability it looks really simple. It looks like nearly everything clips into everything else with connectors. I can only see 2 actual solder points

@matias3ds do you have installation diagrams ?

This picture (shared a couple of months ago) shows the modchip installed in the Lite.

So maybe it goes under the shield that protects the nvidia chip??

we still dont have the diagrams

Yeah the installation look risky, personally I wouldn’t want to unseat heatsink, also to place ribbon on top of cpu chip, that may cause the ribbon to disintegrate by exposing to the heat generated. I think the best would be just remove the metal shield and back cover only, and simply clip in the connections.

What are you talking about? The software is available right now.

TX 3.0 software isnt out yet - Its what they showed using core and lite

That correct , 3.0 will be tested as well with the core and lite units

Reminds me on xbox jtag days with that postfix they got
eitherway i congratulate these fellas for getting it
you got to admire and respect them for reaching an exploit

I’m assuming the USB plug is for updating the modchip and requires you to remove the back of your Switch to access.

Suddenly my jig doesn't seem so bad...
I don't care if it's once a week or once every few months, having to open your Switch for any kind of 'update' would really suck balls.

 

[Xandroz]

yea i still own an OG switch, and will keep it, and will have a modded lite on the side for fun

That sable is in casa of an emergency , everything will work over wifi , that why you can even choose if install the cable or not .

AH, my bad! I have spoken too soon!

 

[matias3ds]

It’s a micro USB port and only for recovering or debuging the chip.

Diagrams will come in this weekend or Monday
