it's not just pics there also PCB files, I just posted the pics because they are pics

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

would love it if someone would let me know if I can post a link to the files here

These are pretty old fyi

ok but most users haven't never seen them b4, if it ok i would like to know so if anyone wants to play around with them they can

Is this the schematics that were for sale recently?

 

[evil_santa]

yes these are the schematics.

 

[DoctorBagPhD]

So with the schematics out in the wild does that mean we'll finally see some clones?

 

[evil_santa]

No the bitstream from the FPGA is missing.

HWFLY exists

HWFLY exists

It's $180 whos paying that much for a clone?

Someone who doesn't have a choice. And this is clearly their targets.

Sadly its price tag also exists. I'd love to get a modchip for my brother's Switch but I won't be giving any of those robbing bastards a penny xD

so did the users of sx core/lite but that's done meaning they have to settle for a rip-off

If Nintendo switch oled could be hacked i would Buy one, if not , i wont, the problem Is that this chip wont work on it

I’ve been saving a Sx core for months now as soon as I get my oled switch I’llbe taking it apart to see if it’s the same SOC and pcb layout

@ZachyCatGames claims that there is a new mobo. This is backed up by new FCC filings by Nintendo but we can't see pictures in the FCC filings because of a confidentiality request. It is definitely using the same SOC as Mariko but it wouldn't be hard at all for Nintendo to patch the boot rom so that the SX Core won't work. Anyone who has seen the leaked boot rom source code (definitely not me, I'd never download leaks) knows that they actually have code to prevent the exact type of attack that the SX Core uses. They just forgot to use it in the function that checks if the BCT is valid.

Edit: Yes there is that other type of attack that the SX Core hardware can be repurposed for but I wouldn't count on that being publicly released until well after Nintendo gives up updating the firmware.

Edit 2: Even if the SX Core can work homebrew bootloaders will be lacking things like screen initialization code and various other things that could brick your hardware if not set up properly so I wouldn't go fucking around with that stuff until someone like Scires or CTCaer confirms it works.

 

[ZachyCatGames]

No idea how different it is, but the OLED model definitely has a different board, yeah. Also wouldn't be surprised if they mitigate the glitch attack, but I also wouldn't be surprised if they don't.

Will I'm not in any rush ill wait ad see what the pros have to say put the new switch before I try installing anything, don't wanna end up with a $350 brick

No I would be surprised it’s Nintendo after all
