The picofly takes care of 'hacking' the boot process and starts up Hekate from the SD card.
You can't inject payloads with the OLED anymore as Nintendo fixed that security issue.

But since it's a picofly, just provide good detailed information in this thread where all the experts are :

First step is to get a succesfully glitching picofly first. Then you can fire up Hekate for further repairs if needed.
