Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

[Danook28]

HI,you have schematic and boardview nintendo switch?

Yes for cpu???

 

[malgamer]

Who has picofly with fw 2.74, should go back to fw 2.73?

if fw 2.74 running fine why need go back to 2.73

if fw 2.74 running fine why need go back to 2.73

"v2.74 + 300 mhz precision rp2040 may be not stable at 300mhz"

Due to the description above and because it is no longer available.
Is there no risk to use this version, as long as it's working?

This might have been discussed quite a few times but it's very conflicting. 0.2mm works fine on MOSFETs but I find it difficult to manage.

If I used 0.1mm on caps and 0.2mm on the G point. Would that work?

Tnanks!

No, you actually need to do the oposite, since the current flowing from caps to mosfet(D) and mosfet to ground(S) if much higher than the current going to Gate from pico.
Edit:
On my first installs I used to "pre-bend" the wire and cut it to the exact size before soldering it anywhere. Then I would tin both ends and the middle point (1st point=1st cap, middle point=second cap, end point=mosfet) and then solder all 3 wires (D, S, G,) to the mosfet first (while the mosfet in on my working mat. Afterwards I placed the mosfet on the side of APU and the wires would be perfectly aligned to the solder points in APU. Then you just hold the wire firm in place with some silicone spudger and with quick touch of iron solder the wire to cap (it's good to add some low melt solder to cap beforehand).

I use 0.2mm enamel and it works fine. I'll suggest installing like I do:

- start by adding some solder to the cap and ground points on the apu
- cut two 17mm wires and one 10cm wire. shorter wires = harder to manage, I think 17mm is fine
- add solder on both ends of the short wires and one end of the long wire, so the insulation melts away
- add solder on the 3 points on the mosfet
- solder the 3 wires to the mosfet
- route the long wire through a hole in the apu shield frame and then place the mosfet next to the apu
- use a toothpick to add solder mask or glue to fix the mosfet in place
- solder the wires to the apu points, and make sure the solder points are not taller than the apu core
- add kapton tape on top (but make sure to not cover apu core)

see attached pic for end result (before kapton tape)

S cable D cable of MOSFET can be used for overtesting minimum current 0.2mm
Cable (SP1 0.1mm + SP2 0.1mm) D cable can also be tested

0.1mm~0.15mm cable can not be over-tested directly three short yellow light or unstable

What will happee if we accidently switch the SDA and SCL wires?..SDA on SCL and Scl on SDA.

 

[Adran_Marit]

I can scratch and connect that C5R35 point real easy. Is the switch really that simple?

Well yes but actually no, as I said the point on the oled switches is even smaller than the rgh3 point.

It took me several attempts to get it to stick and stay stuck but I also got a new iron and tip specifically for this project.

Hey guys can You tell My where the 4.7k cmd resistor is located on themariko v2 board

Do you mean this one? Since there are probably more

Yea purple screen . O install a poco everything ok . The other day i reboot the consol no hekake direct to ofw ando after a few atemps i got purple screen

is this the one for v2 purple ?

 

[QuiTim]

is this the one for v2 purple ?

Yes, this might be the problem

 

[deeps]

is this the one for v2 purple ?

that pic is from an oled board. see my attached pic for cmd resistor on v2 board

 

[AceCuba]

the pic is from an oled board, but the resistor is in the same spot on the v2 board

edit: uh, no, it isn't, nevermind me

yea im traing to find it

 

[deeps]

yea im traing to find it

i added a pic in my last post

thanks , lets pray . i dont understand everything was working just fine , i reboot the console and no hekake just ofw, i tried a few more times on and off , alwys ofw and then purpple screen
