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
Nothing

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 @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @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.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    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
