Hello guys,

Nintendo Switch Oled

The mod chip worked fine after I tried to downgrade the firmware. Now it won't boot. The chip always blink 2 red, 2 purple stays at white for a while and black screen. And I think the switch is doing something because I need to hold the power button for around 15s to boot the chip again.

You need to be able to boot into Hekate atleast to troubleshoot, update the payload.bin on your SD card with the newest Hekate, rename it as payload.bin

Even If I don't put sd card, screen 'no sd card' doesn't show.

I just started having the same issue. Not getting anything now. If I can at least get into hekate I can look over things but not being able to get there is the trouble. I've tried all boot methods. Just going to plug it into the charger and leave it for the night and try again tomorrow morning. Wife left her switch out and our son got it and updated. Downgraded from 17 to 16.1.0 with daybreak like I've always done before and no dice this time. Confusing as hell.

Edit: The white light on the chip appears to indicate a CLK error. I'm going to try and get the solder points reworked and see if that fixes it. I'll report back with my findings after I try to fix it. I have to work over the weekend so it will probably be Monday before I can test unfortunately.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
