Switch v1 modchip question

[og style]

I want to put a modchip in my v1 switch that is on firmware v18.1.0. I was looking at the PicoFly. Is there anyone that are more recommend or are they all basically the same?

Thanks

V1 unpatched or patched?

It's patched

You can either do the picofly or the RP2040, probably better off to do picofly.

Then I will get that. I wasn't sure if any had more advantages than the others.

What would be the payload to use?

Are picofly and rp2040 not the same chip??

Not the same, rp2040 refers to hwfly rp2040

 

[Goon3r]

Not the same, rp2040 refers to hwfly rp2040

Ok fair, i always assumed the rp2040 was the picofly and the hwfly was a different board

I got the RP2040 today. Is there a key combination to boot into the ofw when it's installed?

To my knowledge picofly uses a rp2040

Thanks for clarification, that was my understanding too.

In fairness the information on boards etc is spotty and inconsistent so can see why there are differing views/understandings.

That is correct.
The name 'picofly' is just the nickname for any modchip that uses the rp2040.
The rp2040 is just a specific version of the raspberry Pi.
One can use a generic RP2040 board made by Raspberry themselves or Waveshare.
Or save a $1 and get a crappy knock-off version that will give you a lot of weird problems.
But there are also a bunch of custom boards which also come with a rp2040 chip but come with all the ribbon cables to make the installation even easier.

The HWFly was just a copy of the SXCore modchip from TeamXcuter after Bowser got thrown in jail.
The Hwfly has another microcontroller and an FPGA chip.
The HWFly works better in some rare cases with newer consoles like the OLED.

But with a v1 a picofly should work fine.
Only install it yourself if you have experience with microsoldering because things are very small an tiny.
In case of doubt, put up an extra $50 and get it done by a skilled engineer,

Eso es correcto.
El nombre 'picofly' es solo el apodo de cualquier modchip que use el rp2040.
El rp2040 es solo una versión específica de la frambuesa Pi.
Uno puede usar una placa RP2040 genérica hecha por Raspberry o Waveshare.
O guarde un $1 y obtenga una versión de imitación horrible que le dará muchos problemas extraños.
Pero también hay un montón de tableros personalizados que también vienen con un chip rp2040, pero vienen con todos los cables de cinta para facilitar aún más la instalación.

El HWFly era solo una copia del modchip SXCore de TeamXcuter después de que Bowser fuera encarcelado.
El Hwfly tiene otro microcontrolador y un chip FPGA.
El HWFly funciona mejor en algunos casos raros con consolas más nuevas como el OLED.

Pero con un v1 una picofly debería funcionar bien.
Solo instálelo usted mismo si tiene experiencia con microsoldering porque las cosas son muy pequeñas y pequeñas.
En caso de duda, coloque un $50 adicional y hágalo un ingeniero experto

⁇ But if it is possible to use the Hwfly on a v1 console? And would that be a good option?

You can use picofly.
