    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I had to change caps because one got lost but they are OK now. No smoke or heat or anything, I don't have any game cards, but I have tried with OFW without SD card and it also freezes. I will try to reproduce this again, I expect the same result. I have also seen this post with a problem that...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    Yes, everything was isolated with tape. Flex and chip is HWfly 2040, bought it together. So no cables and no solder other than the capacitors next to the CPU. I checked there are no shorts or anything. Just in case there was some residue, I disassembled and cleaned up the entire board and...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    Sadly I had tried that a couple of times but to no avail. First time I tried restoring a eMMC backup (which was a downgrade so it did not work because of the fuses), then I tried recovery mode. I’m really not sure what could be causing this. After I tried removing the flex cable and replaced the...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I will give it a try. I tried removing the chip but not the flex cable. Update: Issue still there. I removed the flex cable and with it came a capacitor. Since these are decoupling capacitors and I have read of people having no problems without them I gave it a shot. If anything, it appeared to...

    Hacking Left joycon randomly stopped working

    I am the OP, forgot the account password so answering with a new one... In case anyone stumbles with this, the problem was solved. It was a hardware issue after all: turns out the new rail replacement I got was also faulty. The confidence I had in the replacement being OK made me think of all...
