Ive wired up my RCM X86 but now in Horizon the Right Joycon doesnt work on the Console. I think its because of Pin 10 is shorted can anybody help me?
Hi
I mean what is the benefit of connecting the pin 2 to the usb dizconect strap point ?
Thanks for all answer
Yes. So if you have vol+ soldered too, you can change between permanent CFW boot or dual-boot.OMG it works thank you Man! Ive forgot to flash the Uf1 before...
Sorry to disturb you guys again with such n00b questions, but I am trying to figure out my best option here as I do not have ANYMORE all my soldering tools.... just have some.
I checked the VOL+ soldering point and, my gosh... it is very small and just an small error will damage the resistor for sure...
After that I am reconsidering few things....
If I keep using the AUTORCM, I would not have to solder those two points (JOYCON and VOL+ straps)... so far so good.
But talking from the chipset perspective.... which would be my best choices... which bootloader/payload should I use instead...
Before, I just flashed my trinket with: Part 1 (Bootloader) - SWITCHBOOT_TRINKET_JOYCON_VOLUME and Part 2 (Payload) - TRINKET_SWITCHBOOT_PART2_V135a
Thank you guys... really.
Regards,
ZerO.
OK...@mattytrog So with the introduction of EmuMMC what/ if any options do those of us have that are still on the four wire and utilizing AutoRCM have?
I read somewhere (can’t find it again) that 7.x/8.x breaks AutoRCM, let me know if I’m mistaken! I’m still on 5.1.0 and personally have not had the need to update until now. I really like having AutoRCM and the idea of not burning fuses(have 4.1.0 fuse count). I really don’t want to open the switch up again to solder all straps, I’m lazy but I do have above average soldering skills.
Thanks in advance
In your case, what I would do, I'm assuming you arent bothered about fuses)...
Update to 8.1.0 stock... Burn your fuses. No reason to stay on lower fuses with a modchip...
Then... Have it dual boot. Solder joycon only.
Then use the part 1 joycon only file for your chip.
Then you just power on normally, or hold vol+ and power on for cfw.
Payload? Use fusee-uf2 v3.
Then run whatever you like from SD.
The only things you will lose by doing all this, is the extra chip options that are only accessible with a press of vol+. Ie choose payload1.bin, payload2.bin etc via hardware and adjust led brightness and a couple more things.
You could always fit a switch or a wire somewhere if you were that bothered.
But these things are absolutely NOT REQUIRED to run any payload or boot in any way... They are just extra toys for the MCU freaks among us.
Once fusee uf2 is flashed, choose your payload, any bin file, throw it on SD and you are done.
I just restored my 7.0.1 NAND and booted stock firmware. Signed in and downloaded the 8.0.1 firmware and installed it. After that i got a popup that i had to restart my device. Because i have no sd card inserted it boots switchboot (v1.3.4 / hekate v4.10.1) directly. But when i pick "Reboot (Normal)" i get stuck in a black screen. How do i boot into horizon.. :/
I have never enabled auto rcm. I've always used both straps and used autoboot by the chip itself.
edit:
I desoldered the "volume up" strap so i could avoid the auto boot by the chip. And Horizon boots fine that way. Am i doing something stupid? How do i boot to Horizon with both straps enabled?
