    Hardware Plugged in the battery with flipped polarity. What at the very least do I have to replace?

    Unfortunately I came to the conclusion that the easiest thing is to buy a new daughterboard and a new motherboard (as I had some ZIF connectors broken) so I cannot help :(

    Gaming Playing legally owned games on emuMMC modded switch (oled)?

    Fair enough, I just dislike having to switch between CFW and OFW in order to play backed up games/legit games. I was wondering if it was possible, better than copying over save files/update info. Oh well! :> Thank you for the reply, it shines a lot of light into it! Sucks that it is this way...

    Gaming Playing legally owned games on emuMMC modded switch (oled)?

    Hey, I would like to know if there is any simple way of playing legally owned games (cartridges and downloaded games) when atmosphere is loaded without having to copy some data to the sd card - like updates and such? The problem from what I understand is that the game refuses to load without...

    Homebrew 3DS Devkitpro infrared - minimal functioning program

    Oh! Did not know that! I was scouting with google yesterday, no mention of iruInit, but seems that I was wrong! I was only looking around devkitpro, not just the libctru. I want to try to emulate pokewalker on the 3DS :D There exist hardware versions, but I feel like the 3DS is theoretically...

    Homebrew 3DS Devkitpro infrared - minimal functioning program

    If you can take a look, that would be amazing. I will probably have to dive into it as well, but I haven't yet tried reversing 3DS code, I only have knowledge with the x86-64 assembler.

    Homebrew 3DS Devkitpro infrared - minimal functioning program

    Hey, I've been trying to find anything about the IR transciever on the 3DS, but looks like I am unable to find absolutely anything. The devkitpro library looks like it does not have any code. I have a feeling that my only remaining hope is to analyze some assembler code from games that use it...

    Hacking Hardware Modded switch oled "failed to init eMMC"

    Final update: replacing the A point resistor fixed it all, it now boots and no error with hekate trying to create emuMMC! Did not need to touch the eMMC at all, it was probably from me nudging and desoldering the resistor a bit. Probably. Still weird that the resistor read 0 ohms when measured...

    Hacking Hardware Modded switch oled "failed to init eMMC"

    Thank you greatly for the reply. I have reballed things before, though, not sure if we have a stencil for this eMMC. In case I fail, though, would i be able to buy another eMMC and swap it in place? I read upon someone being able to use a Samsung eMMC, just seems a bit sketchy :D. Though, I did...

    Hacking Hardware Modded switch oled "failed to init eMMC"

    Hi! I recently finished modding my switch oled (after finding out that the previous modchip wasn't working, was fun :^)) booting hekate I thought the worst of it was behind me, but after trying to create the emuMMC it warned me about the slow read speeds and that the eMMC failed to init. Booting...

    Hacking Hardware Modded Switch lite suddently boots into OFM with no hekate

    Thank you for the great guide! I'll be checking out soon what is my problem. My guess would be that the less than stellar work that I did when I connected the flex cable on the CPU. 1755518240 Update - fixed! The left connector for SP1 got loose. After soldering it back it started to function as...

    Hacking Hardware Modded Switch lite suddently boots into OFM with no hekate

    Hey, I recently ran into a problem, where I rebooted the console and suddenly, there was no hekate. I installed the modchip 2 months ago, worked like a charm on the first try, but after a lot of gaming on the system (and supposedly warming it up enough to change something) it started booting...

    Hardware Plugged in the battery with flipped polarity. What at the very least do I have to replace?

    Hi, I've been trying to fix one of my dead new 3DS XL's (that I managed to kill with the stupid ZIF connectors) and after putting some on, I tried to quickly power the board on, but I accidentally switched the battery's polarity and now nothing will power on, the board acts as if dead. My...

    Gaming Playing Wii games from SSD connected to Wii U usb ports.

    Yeah, found a solution lying around. I had a SATA to USB and luckily it was just the right one. I also had a spare 1T SSD that I wasn't using since it was in an old laptop :} it all works well! Still have to install some patches and re-download some games, but now this works fantastically

    Gaming Playing Wii games from SSD connected to Wii U usb ports.

    Yup, it leads me to believe that it is a software issue that is technically possible to fix. But I don’t have enough knowledge with the Wii or just anything around it to be able to help out. :/
