how does the thought process go here? "Hmm, I should ask this 100% not picofly related question in the picofly thread. That makes sense to me."
Not to be rude but GTFO

I got fked by New chip Store on Ali - here's what they listed:

And here's what they sent me:
What the hell, these couldn't be the furthest thing from one another... And they're unwilling to refund.
There's a new hwfly store selling the ones that look good, but we don't like supporting hwfly here, so I'm not sure which seller is legit for these: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005674625886.html but store opened May 18, 2023, so not even sure it's legit.

Right, never been so pissed off in my life! Got a new switch lite. used aon7518 and 2.73fw. got ==*. ok check the mosfet. Added more solder to the cap and mosfet connection. Put it back together. Success. Fast glitch. Pico logo. Test 3 more times to confirm. Great all works. Took off the battery and connector to resolder some joints on the pico board to make it look neater. 2mins later put the battery and connector back and no boot. No logo. Nothing!!!!! Nothing! WTF!? Took off everything mod related. Still dead. No OFW. How is this even happening!? doesn't make sense!?
I mean yes lol, I guess that's where I should end up, but that's what I have to work with currently, I have the tools, just missing the paste and stencil I suppose.all i can say is stop wasting ur money on dat0 adapter , get a reballing stencil and learn how to reball
then order the stancil and paste and learn it its really not hard trust me i did my first reball on my oled and it worked on the first go, never had an issue with my permanent dat0 install.
neather have my costumers never complained all are happy, a few of them had hwflys installed befor then sent them to me cause they where having issue i put a permanent dat0 adapter in and a picofly and everyone was happy
no bridge. nothing. otherwise it would not have glitced and showed pico success logo? Never had a problem with any other switch version but for some reason its the lite. only had once success install with lite but like 3 failures including this. and both similiar where it would glitch and then no boot? honestly don't know whats going on

it was only 2 points on the pico board that i added some flux and rounded off the solder joints. They weren't touching in the first place but it was a cosmetic touch up. and thats it. took the board off after it didn't work to check everything else for bridges or anything out of the ordinary and nothing. no ofw
don't have one. going to leave the scene for a while. man im depressed. i'll see ya round for now.
Your solder station might broke it if its have a leakage current, just saying.
Since it's a switch lite, I would check the daughter board connector that sits on top of the battery connector. It is VERY sensitive to having its pins dislodged/bent and several times people have messed up modding their switch lite by screwing up this connector. The console still glitches, still technically powers on, but no screen comes on.
Every Lite I have done, every time I reconnect the battery, I connect that FPC cable FIRST. I saw a video by Tronicsfix and he said that if you plug the battery in, then plug the FPC in after there is a chance you can blow the backlight. It's a little tricky at first but you have to plug the FPC connector in, then align the battery connector and gently press on the top of it through the ribbon cable to connect it.
I've only done 6 Lites but I have a personal Lite that I have done a lot of work on and taken apart many times and I have never had an issue with them randomly dying. I think Tronicfix is right in what he says about the way you connect the battery.
I'm getting ready to fit a picofly into a v2 switch but I'm not sure how to wire it as I've seen 2 different methods
I've seen the guide which shows the points on the main board but I've also seen videos of people soldering wires to the small removable memory module
Which is the best way going forward with this install?
Thanks for the help

i always install the wires to the conector of the emmc , but if u dont have soldering experience i wouldnt do that , just use the board points so u can remove the emmc if u ever have to, otherwise ur gonna have to remove all the wires in case u need to remove the emmc
I bought from that exact store you linked, they seem legit. Here's how they look like:
Dee's advice is solid though, this is the last time I'm buying these adaptors, I've ordered a full emmc reballing kit and I'm doing it the right way.
