I fed 5v directly into the pin and nothing blew up (that I saw) and it charged my battery dead joycon but it's still not detected. The only pin that's not working as it should now is pin 8 (serial data), pin 5 (inverted serial data) is working. So I need to trace out pin 8 and try and figure out...
Looks like I am onto something, that chip that has a grounded pin also supplies the 5v to the joycon. I cannot find any where that trace / pad goes though, maybe an internal trace and or bga connection. :( Times like this I really wish some schematics had leaked.
Thanks for the reply, I did change the mosfet in the right corner already which is why it's a bit crooked. :) I really need to get a proper microscope, anyway I'll check around the max chips next, the joycon 5v pin is only getting 0.5v.
Does anyone have a rev 20 motherboard that could take a reading for me? This pad is grounded, I removed the chip and it's still grounded, comparing it to a 01 revision this shouldn't be grounded. I am guessing the 20 and 01 motherboards are very similar and it shouldn't be grounded but would...
Did either of you manage to fix this? it's the right joycon not being detected in my case, it doesn't charge either. New rail, new connector lots of IPA but nothing. It had some minor water damage, it's stuck on the attach joycon screen so cannot test further.
Does anyone know what the T451 chip is used for? it's next to the right joycon and lcd backlight connectors. I am trying to fix a motherboard with water damage, it won't detect the right joycon and I've cleaned up the connector tried 2 different rails and two different known working joycons. I...
^ yep, short is still there after removing the pi3usb and cap. I'm sure it's not always the cpu, so worth removing the pi3usb and crossing your fingers.
Does anyone know where I can find tact swith for a right joycon shoulder button (the one that's soldered directly to the pcb) I've looked on ebay but couldn't see any that looked the right size or that are 3 pin.
You can reflow the visible pins without removing the new port, you can also test each one by pushing it with a needle and seeing if it moves to make sure it's soldered properly. Pins 4 and 9 are 5v.
Have you tried plugging the charger in the other way? as long as the usb port is soldered on properly on one of the two rows of pads it should charge with the charged plugged in one way.
Feeding a tinned wire under the pin and heating the exposed leg and wire using a soldering iron (small tip) should work. I managed to do it recently and it did work but unfortunately the motherboard had a shorted cpu so it was all for nothing.
if they get permission from 4j (the studio who helped put minecraft on consoles), they could put the console edition tutorial worlds in the game, as seeds
and i mean all of them (if not, maybe a few highlights, like TU1, TU31, and TU69)
