    Hacking Question Switch Lite Black Screen

    Lets hope so. My original SD card was a 256GB mymemory SD card. Now using a sandisk 128GB and I have no issues. Would be nice to use the bigger card again though

    Hacking Question Switch Lite Black Screen

    I can't see the light on the chip with the back on but assume that it is green as I'm getting to the SXOS splash screen every time. It's just loading the emunand that is the issue. Sometimes it boots fine and others it just stays on a black screen and requires a hard reset to get out of

    Hacking Question Switch Lite Black Screen

    After SX lite install I sometimes get a black screen after the SXOS splash screen when cold booting to emunand. When this happens I have to do a hard reset of the switch lite and try again. The next time it boots emunand fine. Software is 10.2.0 and SXOS is 3.0.5. Anyone else have this issue?

    So if I am only going to use just one paste on everything should I use MX4 or MX2?

    What thermal paste should I use when putting the switch back together? Can I use the same paste on each bit? I noticed that the ones I took off were different colours. Grey and pink

    Ok thanks. I thought it might be easier to pre-tin the pads and then reflow the solder when in position to cover the ends of the caps.

    Question for the seasoned installers. Do you pre-tin the pads with solder on SP1 and SP2 before placing the ribbon in position on the caps?

    Can anyone recommend a cheapish soldering iron that will do the job? I’m guessing my 15W fixed temp Maplin special won’t be good enough

    Just ordered an SX core. The last modchip I installed was about 12 years ago. It was. D2C key on the wii. I remember that being pretty difficult but doable. Does anyone know how it compares to that difficulty wise?
