Hacking Sx Core and Sx Lite , test Units Received

[MIsterPee]

You did a good job and have some really nice equipment.

Thank you. I'm a tinkerer! It was electronics and PCs 20 odd years ago. I decided to make a living with electrics instead and typically deal with cables the size of my leg! (shame I couldn't see the future)

Then again, I also like taking cars, engines and gearboxes apart..... Sometimes I even put them back together!

Wish you all the best with the install service mate

Heads up tinfoil autodetect if you have a Mariko switch and tinfoil it now auto detects SXCORE and removes incognito option

Starts with UF and ends with YP

mine is now showing tracking on 17track
funny thing is the 1st entry ,it says..
"Jamaica , electronic shipping info received"
does TX have warehouse in Jamaica or something
like actual irie irie , bumbaclot Jamaica ,lord ave mercy
or is it Jamaica china or something

EDIT: a quick Google search for : "Jamaica China"
didn't yield results for a city named Jamaica in China but it did however return several results for Jamaica being the 10th Caribbean nation to sign on to the belt and road initiative
so now i am wondering if there is indeed a warehouse in actual Jamaica
i hope so cause i think that would probably mean much faster shipping to me here on the East coast

It can't be harder than soldering to pin #2 on the transmitter chip of my Devo7e

This is it exactly. Your modchip is in Jamaica, NY. There is a shipper there that handles mail between China and USPS called Pitney Bowes. I posted about them a few pages back. They are a big bottleneck unfortunately.

CLEAN.

Woohooo! Finally done! I was almost shit in my pants when i got a bridge when soldering. I thought i fucked up at that moment! Luckily i manage to remove the bridge from using the suction.

 

[DPyro]

Too much solder

well that sounds even better
much closer than China or even jamaica
very close to me since i am in Boston
i just hope it is really there and that the entry doesn't mean that it is on it's way there from China, if it is in Jamaica NY then i should receive it pretty quickly i would think since i am not that far away

 

[bodgy]

I have the chip now. I'd seen the photos and I had read the descriptions of how small it is. I'm still blown away by how small it actually is. This shit is gonna be scary.

Gonna keep practising on the DDR3 for a few days till I feel like I have my game face on.

Hi. I requested modchip installer to install sx core in my patched switch but after install the modchip, it is not boot Sx os but only ofw..
The installer don’t understand why it didn’t work. He said there’s no problem with soldering and I read some trustable reviews about his skills before contact him.
Does anyone have same problem with me?
Should I contact other installers or Just forget about modchip?

SX Core and Lite boot directly to TX Boot menu when installed correctly. Is yours booting into TX Boot Menu?

Tx boot menu is never appear... Just same as original switch.
Is it can be have problem in install process?

Bad install, sorry to hear. At this point I would open switch up to make sure the chip is even inside.
