    Nope I thought I should order some but I did order the resistors. I will update you Friday around 9pm cst I won't know until tomorrow but I'll update you once I replace the resistor 1708048428 Amazon. Didn't know they had them.

    Yeah I should've covered the surrounding area to prevent killing it in the first place but yeah it flew away when I grabbed it with my tweezers. I ordered 0201 4.7k resistors. Also should I buy capacitors just in case? or is the blown resistor the only reason for the purple screen? I think I...

    Before I do that, it gets normal readings. Should I reflow it regardless?

    it's fine too if I apply solder mask to the cpu area to prevent solder from getting in there?

    Thank, do you recommend I do the wire or the blob for the sake of testing? I am waiting on my solder mask and microscope before I do anything

    Ah okay, I’ll try that. I ordered a microscope and solder mask. I should’ve done that in the beginning lmao. I’ll update you once I finish.

    Yup the dot reads 535 I also noticed that if I prob the trace line not the via, it’s 619. Would that cause the switch to not boot up at all? Regardless if the mod chip is on?

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    Hey yall, I tried installing picofly 2040 on my oled and I kept getting the *== error then it booted to ofw. I used the fpcb cable and the voltages read correctly and so I unsoldered the D point. Doesn’t want to boot anymore. I desoldered everything and nothing. I made sure the mod chip threw...
