The blinking yellow lights are the error code. The long space between the one long, then 3 shorts tells you it's that error. It'll cycle through a few times with that error code. The blue at the beginning just means it's trying to glitch. If success then you'll get the white single light to...
Your SP1/2 connections looked bridged. You're also missing something next to SP1
Should look similar to this. Yours looks like it's just a big blob across the whole cap.
Well if he's just checking to see if it's booting properly before sealing everything up he should be ok. I usually at least have the cover and all that down before turning my devices back on.
But yes photos help a lot of you're looking for help in troubleshooting.
Yes you can boot without all that. Your dat0, cmd, and clk should read around 0.5+, while RST should read around 1.2+ or something. Also, that piece on the right of the flex needs to slide under the frame.
Don't think I've seen any videos online with the back install. But it's pretty easy. The cap is much larger than the ones on the APU. Some people solder straight from the mosfet to the cap. Some use wires, which is what I've done in the past whenever I chose to do that back installation. Here's...
You need more than that. That is only the CPU flex cable. Looks like nothing else is included. If you go the HWFly route you're still missing several components needed. There's another flex cable that is soldered to points on the board as well as an adapter that slides under the emmc. And last...

Error code, short short = RST not connected. Check that point and what values are you reading in diode mode is what must people will tell you.
There are lots of resources out there. But also, I would recommend doing the research and having some soldering experience before even buying a chip. Good luck
Just did an OLED with SKHynix yesterday with single mosfet wired to the APU and Rp2040 Tiny. The first time powering up it just blinked blue for a very long time. So I held the power button down till it shut off, disconnected the battery then tried again. The next time it actually glitched, and...
I went to a garage sell last saturday, and the lady had a PS2 for sale, but she had a sign on it that said "Nintendo -$50", had to laugh, almost bought but she didn't know if worked, and she didn't have controller or cables, so I passed.
