    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    ah, thank you for adding my led mod to the guide, but the issue with the joy-con intermittently not being detected in handheld mode for the non-lite install was never resolved, and as such I would ask that instructions for only the lite install be provided

    this is the test pad for the power button on the oled pcb. you can short it to the screw hole above with a pair of tweezers to turn the console on and off.

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    dat0 running through that alignment indicator circle is a very convenient visual marker. though, being in between other lines makes me a little wary of potential damage to the surrounding traces. I looked at the board scans and found that the dat0 line also comes out into a via pad beneath two...

    good job, looks quite clean. good idea running the line back to an existing test pad. tempted to try this myself for fun and the experience

    0.1uF cap between DI and the JRST line did not work for me.. may be a difference with seeed xiao rp2040 or old v1 board. handheld functionality is restored but the LED no longer lights up. thank you for testing; I will continue to look into it when I have spare time

    thank you for verifying; I deeply apologize for having posted instructions before fully checking all functionality. I will look further into the issue and update the method if I find a better solution

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I did some further testing and noticed my console now has issues transitioning to wired connection when attaching the right joy-con, such as detaching the controller, manually turning it off with the sync button, and then reattaching it. it will not transition to wired mode and wake itself, in...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    a follow-up to my previous post about relocating the status LED to the home button of the switch lite, I was successful in doing so with the detachable joy-con as well. not very practical, but fun. used pin 6 of the joy-con, JRST, to run the LED data line out of the console and into the...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    ah, I see; I was looking at the schematic provided by waveshare for the rp2040-zero, and the pinout was identical to the seeed xiao rp2040. I believe that is a ws2812b-2020 then

    that pinout should be correct; they appear to be using the same LED. also, I will likely be doing another install soon as I repaired a second lite board yesterday, so I will see if I can figure out a method that leaves the original home button LED intact.

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    perhaps; maybe by mounting the status LED further away, perpendicular to the motherboard, such that it is casting its light into the side of the translucent cover, instead of resting under it and casting upward. hopefully that would still diffuse it enough to be evenly lit. I had done something...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I completely removed the home button LED; it was originally on the two pads on the right side of where the RP2040's status LED is now. the top pad is constant 3.3V, which is convenient as the status LED needs that as well. the bottom pad is a switched ground to control the original home button...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    finally did one of these RP2040 installs; good learning experience after several years since my last SAMD21 install. went with a seeed xiao RP2040, dual mosfet. relocated the status LED to the front of the board where the (nearly) unused home button LED was, so it can act as an external status...

    1-bit mode (out of solutions)

    the points are not in the same order on the rear of the board as they are on the front; the top point on the rear is the one connected to the bottom point on the front.

    1-bit mode (out of solutions)

    the sd card breakout points are documented in this thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/579623/ assuming there are no other faulty pins, it should be reparable by running a thin wire (preferably enameled/magnet wire) from one of the pads on the rear of the board to the corresponding pin on the...

    Help needed! Missing components.

    I checked a board I had out on the desk, and they are all the exact same component - 100k 0201 resistors. these should be suitable: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/YAGEO/RC0201FR-07100KL?qs=H0f9D%252BN4ztJ6ZeeQPytEvw%3D%3D

    Switch OLED teardown V1/V2

    ah! I hadn't considered a pcb thin enough to slot under the emmc. that should greatly help with alignment :) wasn't expecting to see such a fully-formed solution so quickly as well; very good job :bow:
