after seeing your work, I finally decide to cut the shield part off, and the back cover is back to normal again, this feels nice

I hated how the back looks with this bent backplate, you do not even need a dremel or something to cut the metal shield.after seeing your work, I finally decide to cut the shield part off, and the back cover is back to normal again, this feels nice
thats some rally beautiful solder points on SP1 and SP2
Hello all. I recently received my switch back in the mail from a previously verified installed here in this thread that no longer is performing service. I received my lite back with no modification. My Lite is missing a couple of caps on the cpu due to a botched install attempt by myself, does anyone have any recommended US based verified sources for hardware repair at this level?
installing the SX lite at this point is a hefty bonus but I was really hoping to attempt to bring it back to life.
Sorry if it’s been asked before but there are so many pages to go through.

Dude, my pny pro elite 512gb took a crap on me the other day too and just failed. Nothing was recognizing it so I did rma. If it happened to you with the same card, maybe the card is prone to fail on the switch or something.
I tested kingston canvas select, samsung evo plus, sandisk ultra with no problems, @Emeraldu know if after rma the Pny 512 card is working properly now, maybe is a compatibilty problem with some cards.

Theres a couple of amazon reviews that say the same thing about the card. They sometimes fail on v2 and switch lite. Mine was working fine for a couple of months then died on me so now they're sending me another one. I'll just have to back up everything in case it happens again after a couple of months. The only good thing pny has is lifetime warranty so they better keep sending them if they keep failing. No way of getting refund.
Yup I will no longer be doing installs.
But if you have failed an install that needs repaired or need something like a usb port replaced. I can do it

Maybe if Team xecuter had tought in a solderless way to do this , it would be easier and more people would be modding ,, but havin to purchase jewler glassess to do an install .
Here at least theres no interest whatsoever you can get new switch for mod with pro dongle , and a lot of people sell used and unused units trough facebook market and mercadolibre ( its like amazon and ebay together )

Around here in egypt i charge around 90 including the chip and people are seeing this as expensive
ill just finish my dozen chips that are left and will call it quits wont bother to invest further honestly
We have no ninjas here, and pretty much modding is legal around here no one cares but the chip and install price doesnt make sense to alot of users around here
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------
And i belive another solution will come just not now, as when they first announced it, it was mentioned that there will be a solderless option, i belive at least for the core thats possible, unless something went south

Re solderless...I only remember them (maybe not even TX, it was just the chatter by everyone else) saying it was probably possible but not recommended as it's a mobile console and wouldn't be very reliable. Any knock could dislodge pins etc.
Even solutions from generations past with points 50x bigger than those on the switch could shift and not work very well.
Or did some people think solderless meant dongle?

It works perfectly. The outer shell of the microSD is poor quality and can wear and tear faster than other SD card brands. So I wont remove it from my console unless I really don't have any choice.

@AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.+2 -

Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other. -

Psionic Roshambo:
Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.

I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.+1 -

I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet

Veho:
Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.

Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150
