Help! (Is this *= or == on the video) Is the issue on the emmc, cpu solder or the picofly?

Video on attachment or here:


How I ended up here:

1. At first I was able to reach “no sd” and hekate with no issue

2. I partitioned my sd card through hekate for emummc

3. When I am creating the emummc it got stuck at 29% and the screen freezes

4. Removed the battery to reset the switch when I turn it on again I got blue screen with “=*=“ on the picofly

5. I tried reflashing the picofly and this is the current behavior (on the video, black screen)



Current diode info:



Ground:motherboard

CLK(D) & RST(B) on picofly with emmc attached ~0.8

CLK & RST on the motherboard ~0.8

SP1 left 0.3 - right 13.3

SP2 left 13.5 - right 0.3

no shots visible on the other capacitor


Any help is greatly appreciated

in my opinion remove everything and make sure it works as original then start again. surely some points were not properly welded. if it boots correctly in original this allows you to exclude hardware damage

These I managed to do but failed (black screen)

1. Directly plug the emmc to the motherboard
2. Removed cpu flex cable while modchip is attached
3. Turn on while modchip is attached but no emmc (same light error as in the video)

the blue screen no longer shows after I reflash the picofly but it becomes black screen throughout, does that rule out severe hardware issue?

What happens when you disconnect everything (like a virgin, untouched switch) )and try to boot up the console? if everything is right the console should boot just fine, if it doesn't you definitely have a hardware issue on your switch, and wouldn't bother searching for flaws in your modchip installation.
