Hacking Pink Light with Sx Core v1

Devinel · Sep 3, 2020

Hey, im kinda desperate. I soldered twice now, first was red, in my second attempt it went to pink (purple+blue?) i checked my solder points for ressistance, i checked for continuity and i get values everywhere for connection to the nand place. Soldering seems fine, so i don't know what stops it from working. Nand is connected to the board. Only thing i did not check is if i need to put everything together completly as i keep testing it with open chip without heatspreader and stuff.

After reading a little more i saw someone recommending to put the nand back to old place and start it regulary, it stays black so i think i shorted something?

Edit: nevermind. Core v1. All I can say is double check the nand ribbon and make sure the nand chip is connected at the other end. I've seen at least one user think that the nand cable replaces the nand chip. When it's just an in between. Another thing to check is to make sure there's no solder splashes on the chip. Pictures would still help.

Pink means it's the nand solder points.

Post some zoomed in pics with a cellphone and we can help see if anything visually looks wrong.

Desolder everything, put the nand back and make it work again.
When its working as usual without chip, try again.
Without zoomed pictures nobody can help you.

ok, i desoldered everything, put the nand back and the switch is not reacting to any inputs, just staying dark. so i broke something... but how do i check what is broken?
