Hi,
I have a problem with Oled TOTK edition. I have successfully installed HWFLY V5 Deluxe Oled, Hekate works, I can benchmark emmc without errors, clone ofw to emmunand etc. But when I try to boot (ofw, cfw, etc) it just shows black screen, no N logo, no S logo. Sometimes I get the N logo and after a while error 2002-3556. I checked the soldering again, read the values (they are +-0.7, reset 2.9), everything is fine. I tried disconnecting the flex cables (cpu and the other) and the Oled seems to be dead. When I try to charge, nothing happens on the screen, no power. Hekate shows that it is charging, but only slowly. Can anyone help me diagnose what is wrong? I've read a lot of posts on here, searched on youtube, etc. but without luck. I found out yesterday that when I turn on the Oled, after a while the MAX77812 heats up. There are 4 "huge" capacitors near him and 3 of them are shorted (or maybe I'm just measure wrong or they should be shorted?). I will probably be able to replace the Max chip and the other near USB port is what type of chip (on him is probably DQ24193, TI 278, ABK3)? I will order them both.

Maybe one more possible good information, Oled is brand new, just one time powered on to see if he is working, but process of first initialization was not completed (set user, time etc...). On youtube Tronicfix has good channel with Switches and how to diagnose what is wrong, but only older models (and I don't know if it is aplicaple to Oled and which components to measure, on Oled they apear to be on another place).

Can anyone help and direct me on what to do (and how) to diagnose the problem?

With best regards
R.

That doesn't mean anything components can appear shorted from low impedance you should check the voltage drop

Sorry I gave you TL;NR mode earlier but after reading your issue I can safely say your eMMC is the culprit since you can boot into Hekate. You're not far away from the issue I'm facing right now but my case is much worse.

If your eMMC has no errors as you say you should be able to boot into recovery mode. Disconnect the chip and press both VOL-+ while pressing Power this should bring up the maintenance window.

Hi,
thanks, will try. I have removed all "new" added stuff, so the console is clear (but still dead).

What is TL;NR (..."Sorry I gave you TL;NR mode earlier but after"...)

Finally solved - after days of googling, inspecting and searching. I have found a very little short for eyes allmost invisible (hidden under rest of thermal paste) - cpu was grounded.


Bad news for finding problem, good news for backup of nand -> Hekate boots even if cpu is shorted... if not, it will be much easier to find problem.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
