    Instinct Nx OLED strange issue...chip dying?

    V6 putty doesn't have an option for reset iirc, maybe just reflashing the chip ya think? I was going to order another chip last night but I can't find any now, the original store I bought from is apparently on holiday I think it said or something and I found 1 v6s but no shipping to USA so that...

    Instinct Nx OLED strange issue...chip dying?

    Hey everyone, Got a modchip that is driving me nuts over here, modded it about a year ago and was fine for a while but I don't think it was powered off or rebooted very much. The battery died and when we turned it back on no response from the chip AT ALL. Zip zilch nothing, so I assumed DAT0...

    Corrupted SD card from cheap Chinese USB to SD adapter. Recovery help

    The card that was corrupted with the cheap adapter is a Samsung Evo select 256gb, my card that I checked to see what partitions and format it was is a Samsung Evo plus 256gb. I set them both up the same way last year and no issues until I tried creating the firmware folder with that cheap...

    Corrupted SD card from cheap Chinese USB to SD adapter. Recovery help

    I'm fairly certain it did corrupt the file table as using a good SD micro to full adapter with this card shows the same results and my good SD card is read just fine. Not sure if anyone knows the size block of it's saved that way for Hogwarts legacy but that's the file I'll need. I'll try...

    Corrupted SD card from cheap Chinese USB to SD adapter. Recovery help

    Good question, don't really remember as I set it all up about a year ago. I did follow sthetix guide and used the option that was recommended for the best support, I believe that was partition based iirc. I also opted to shrink the original nand backup on the SD card to only use like 8gb I...

    Corrupted SD card from cheap Chinese USB to SD adapter. Recovery help

    There was no issue with the SD card until I used the cheap adapter clone. As far as the Anker adapter I tried to use an official Samsung micro to full SD adapter and plugged into my laptop. Still unable to see any data so the card was for sure corrupted by the cheap adapter. Just hoping...
