    Hardware Joycons not charging when the switch is plugged in

    In my case it wasn’t the chip labeled with „PU“, it was caused by this diode next to the fan FPC, which was causing a short on the 5V line.

    Hardware Joycons not charging when the switch is plugged in

    I think I found the resbonsible parts in this post here -> https://www.tronicsfixforum.com/t/5v-boost-ic-chip/579/8 can anybody tell me how to check these parts from the images? in diode mode both? and on which contacts? and does anybody know the readings? thanks!

    Hardware Joycons not charging when the switch is plugged in

    hi! I‘m having the same issue, I already tried switching the fan and the rails, but that didn‘t help. Can you please post an image of the PU Chip you‘re talking about? that would be great, thanks!

    Hardware Multiple shorted caps near P13USP, M92T36 and ALC5639

    yeah, I had the same issues at the beginning. make sure that you're really using a bigger noozle than the one for the phones or the M92T36 ic on the NS so that you can apply the heat on a wider area. I do it always like this: 1. Apply some flux 2. Heat up the CPU/APU with about 400° until the...

    pls see --> https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-switch-blue-screen-of-death-reballing-soc-nvidia-tegra.556346/page-2#post-9059323 for reballing the CPU :-)

    Hardware Board swap, but which components?

    @iTechCareRepair here you can order the stencil for the CPU --> https://de.aliexpress.com/item/4000096651064.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dBJLmUd just select "direct heating" as product variant and you'll get the correct stencil

    Hardware M92t36 pin 6

    hey guys! I checked the M92T36 a few days later and the 3,5V from PIN 6 are gone again :-( I already tried 6 other M92T36, but PIN 6 hasn't got any volts. Any ideas what I can check/recheck? The replaced/added resistors look okay as far as I can tell. thanks!

    Hardware Multiple shorted caps near P13USP, M92T36 and ALC5639

    if the solution from @Mightyjebus doesn't work, check if the solder joints of these caps are REALLY touching the caps. I once had an issue that a solder joint was broken and this caused the same issue as you described it.

    Hardware M92t36 pin 6

    I found the issue which was causing 0V on PIN 6 of the M92T36!! :-D it was caused by two missing caps next to the power flex cable and cartridge/touch connectors! I took these two from a different board and installed them on my damaged one. Voilà got 3,5V on PIN 6 of the M92T36. HTH

    ok, thanks! but at which pin of the LCD should I check the voltage? can you maybe provide an image?

    Hardware Two dead mainboards - same symptoms

    How do you measure these parts when LCD and backlight flex cables are connected? I did it without LCD flex connected, but I'll try it with it attached, thanks! So you checked the crystal with a multimeter, but in which mode ohm, diode,..? Sorry but I didn't get the description. I don't know...

    Hardware Two dead mainboards - same symptoms

    hey @SheriffBuck ! I read your posts and I've got two questions: * I checked the TI TPS61163A on a working and a faulty port and I get 4,1V with the AC adapter plugged in. Am I doing/checking something wrong? * Is there another way to check if the STD-MUA9 Tuning Fork Crystal running at...

    Hardware M92t36 pin 6

    thanks for the link to the thread, it will help me a lot with my other dead boards, but it doesn't answer my question regarding pin 6 of the m92t36. do you have any idea why I don't get any volts on this pin?

    Hardware Multiple shorted caps near P13USP, M92T36 and ALC5639

    yes, sounds like it's the CPU.. :-( I already tried a board swap (CPU, NAND and WIFI IC - https://gbatemp.net/threads/board-swap-but-which-components.565803/), but it didn't worked because the CPU, in my opinion, was faulty. I think it should be possible because "just" the mentioned three...

    Hardware M92t36 pin 6

    hello @Ttm3 yes, as far as I know the board/CPU is bad when it doesn't change from 0,41 amps to more (). but you can read this conversation, maybe this one helps (https://www.tronicsfixforum.com/t/0-41a-no-screen-possible-fix/223). I wasn't able to fix this problem too. But I've got a...

    Hardware Board swap, but which components?

    hey guys! I finished the board swap yesterday. It took me a little bit longer since I had to reinstall 3-5 chips which I took away from the targed board as spare parts for other mainboards. Board A (targed board): Had no issues as far as I can tell, except the issue that the caps near the USB...

    Hardware Board swap, but which components?

    @bombob thanks! I'll move CPU, NAND and the WIFI/BT Module to the other board :-) @Ttm3 I already removed the CPU, reballed it and now I'll install it on the other board, then I'll do the WIFI IC. I'll keep you updated. Regarding the issue with the USB port, you can checkout this post from...

    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow

    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term

    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero
