Anyone encountered this? Rp2040 keeps on glitching?

..I experienced that (Switch Lite though..)...then after the glitching attempt a RED LED then off...

what I did is to replace my wirings with enameled 0.2mm (DAT0, CMD, RST, CLCK, CPU)

then it worked... It might also be a soldering issue (cold solder?)...

Fw2.5, it happens to run a while ago. But when i tried to put back the backplate, it just keeps on glitching for what ever reason.

AAtmosphere patches block fuse burning, so you should use the official updater in either "Full Stock", or OFW mode (clean unpatched system).

Now you have two ways:
1) boot "Full Stock" mode using hekate (completely stock system, Nintendo Logo on the boot), then apply the official updater (not sure if that is possible when you already have the latest version)
2) use daybreak to downgrade back to the 15.0, then boot OFW and apply the official updater again

This was made as a last resort for people who can't get a smaller board like rp2040-zero. It lacks RGB LED for debug, needs to be cut, and have difficulties with D0 connection. You have to be skilled to use that
I just tried holding + and - on Boot. It started ofw (Nintendo Logo) and the Update to 16.x went through. Sadly i still get a blackscreen.

I downgrade to 15.x again and it booted ofw again. So i tried running Hekate -> reboot -> ofw and did the same updating process using wifi and the Nintendo updater.

Same result - didnt work :s thats kind of strange - no fuses were burnt… is this a bug?
 
sure u can use them , but why would u want to use them?
there is already limited space that why we use smd

purple schreen is most likely an issue with the 4.7k cmd resistor
It's not like they're huge, they're almost as thick as the beak, I say this because they're the ones I have on hand, what I can't get are the mosfets, I mean I know they're on aliexpress but they arrive in 60 days or more and also resolve the issue of it will take DAT0 from the nand of the Oled because in Oled there is no DAT0 test point as in the lite, right?

I don't understand. You have working both CFW (as you said) and OFW (reboot->OFW)

where do you get a black screen?

ah okay well then u need to make it fit somehow.
no oled u need a adapter or u need to take the emmc out the emmc ,reball emmc , set permanent dat0 adapter

Oh sorry
Well its like this:
1. Firmware 15.x is installed
2. i Start using + and - to Boot in ofw
3. ofw starts with no problems
4. im running the updater (ofw) and it installed 16.x
5. it demands a reboot.
6. i hold + and - to boot ofw
7. blackscreen

After some booting fails in ofw i Boot into cfw and reset using Daybreak to fw 15.x


Again with fw 15.x i tried this
1. Firmware 15.x is installed
2. i boot hekate
3. i Click restart
4. i Click on ofw
5. ofw Boots (fw15.x)
6. i m updating using the Updater to fw16.x
7. the Update installs and demands a reboot
8. it Boots into hekate
9. i Click reboot
10. i Click on ofw
11. blackscreen

After a lot of tries i reinstalled ofw 15.x again and it Boots.(but the desired 16.x does not boot)
My fuses are still at 17(15.01)

Cfw Boots when i m on 16.x but ofw just doesnt work at all in v16.x - only 15.x works.

Not a big deal but thats a strange behavior. Thanks for all your hard work and sorry for the trouble

CFW you mean CFW SYSNAND OR CFW emuNAND?
Are you using latest Hekate 6.0.3 and ATM 1.5.2?

Yes i m on Hekate 6.0.3 and ATM 1.5.2
Both CFW Sysnand and CFW Emunand (file based - didnt set up a Partition Emunand) work on 16.x but trying to Boot 16.x OFW just shows blackscreen. (While 15.x OFW works)

I use 47 Ohm resistors and a pi 2040 by waveshare

if i cant find a fix i might just use emunand
