    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    There are several indicators, but this error is common for the wifi/bluetooth IC. One way to isolate it is to try to replicate the error in airplane mode off. If the error does not occur with it off, the problem is the wifi/bluetooth IC. I solved the problem of a switch by reflowing this chip. I...

    This B Point in Nintendo switch oled, can be used as an alternative RST point ? I'm trying not to have to completely disassemble the console, since I now master the kamikaze method.

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    Can I use this resistor (taken from a donor board switch v1) to replace the cmd resistor on the oled switch? My order from mouser will arrive on saturday, and I would like to test if my repair worked. If not, is there another 4k7 resistor (4.7K OHM 0201) on the switch v1 board? I have several...

    Merry Tempmas to all!

    GBATEMP is currently the only community I frequent that has survived the entire "new internet" of the second decade of the 2000s. It is a place of EMPIRICAL knowledge, which is a big part of why it is still relevant, and will certainly be for a long time to come. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, and a...

    Switch OLED teardown V1/V2

    Do you happen to have any more of these lost ones available for sale? I still lack the control and self-control to attempt a kamikaze, so I've always wanted to get these flats from you that seem to be of very high quality.

    Quick Question: Purple Screen in Switch lite, when boots is fixable like in oled ( replacement of the resistor)? Or only reballing?

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    My dearest feelaas, I received this Switch Lite the day before yesterday with a purple screen. I proceeded with the installation of the chip to try to boot Hekate in the hope of saving 400 hours of Pokemon Violet. From what I understand, the console entered the purple screen after installing a...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I have my oled switch with a strange error. I installed Picofly without any problems, I was able to boot Hekate, I made all the backups, I ran the EMMC speed test, without low speed. The problem is when you choose to boot it on either Emunand or OFW. Both result in a COMPLETE black screen. No...

    Further information about the upcoming Nintendo Switch "Mig Switch" flashcart has been revealed

    I wouldn't jump to that conclusion so lightly. Despite agreeing with you about the product's acquisition profile, the vast majority of users have particular interests in the success and failure of the flashcart, with different reasons for being here: Some are here to see how hot it is. I...

    Rumor A Nintendo Switch flashcart is being teased, and it could support all models

    Mig Dumper instructions : Also: Them: Well, seem not fully " new" and " revolutionary" device after all. I can't remember anything other than the sky3ds and the need for it to have "ID HEADER" to connect the cartridges online. I remember using a generic header from an original game I had to...
