    Unable to charge - when connected to computer but is fine with power bricks

    I got a usb tester on this unit and saw that it only charges at 0.47amp. It does not go to fast charge. That might be the main issue. I have swapped out the usb c port and the m92 chip and it still unable to go into fast charge. I found no shorts around the m92, BQ and PI3usb chips. Running out...

    Unable to charge - when connected to computer but is fine with power bricks

    Yes. I have done the troubleshooting steps and isolated to this switch. 1699133854 I can do microsoldering, just horrible at troubleshoot which component has failed. 😂

    Unable to charge - when connected to computer but is fine with power bricks

    Sometimes it would connect over DBI. When it is connected, I still get that error message about not charging. When it does connected with DBI, the transfer speed is extremely slow. Over 50+ mins to install instead of the normal 5-10mins. I have other switches and they connected fine with the...

    Unable to charge - when connected to computer but is fine with power bricks

    I have a regular Switch that has no issue charging to a power brick or plug, but will not charge by a computer. I have tried multiple computers and usb ports and they all behave the same way. Must be some ic chip issue. Anyone comes across this issue before?

    Switch Lite draining battery fast (even when it is powered off)

    I have a Switch Lite that drains battery fast. About 10% in 5-10mins. If I am at 95% battery and power it off completely overnight, the next morning it is at 10%. It’s not the battery as I have it disconnected and the charge remains at the same voltage reading with a multimeter. I replaced the...

    Hwfly rp2040 on oled, inconsistent boot

    When I switch over to the instinct chip, it doesn’t get stuck like in the hwfly chip. It still doesn’t boot into hekate all the times. 1694448957 Still not yet. I might open the switch and resolder a few points. Just haven’t have time yet to try.

    Micro sd card reader - Switch Lite

    This issue is still outstanding. I compared this board with a working one and something else is causing this, not the physical micro sd slot. I just don’t have enough electric engineering background to troubleshoot this. This will sit in my pile until I have more experience in troubleshooting.

    Tip to solder the ribbon cable for Switch Lite

    Is there any trick or tip on soldering points A and D on the ribbon? The gap between the board and the ribbon is quite far. I always spend too long doing these two points.

    Micro sd card reader - Switch Lite

    Already replaced the sd card reader an hour ago and that didn’t help fix the error. What is this blue smd? I am comparing diode values between another working board and I am not getting any value at this component. I am getting 0v instead of 0.57v.

    Micro sd card reader - Switch Lite

    Replaced the sd card reader and that didn’t fix the issue. Something else is causing this issue, just don’t know which one to try.

    Micro sd card reader - Switch Lite

    I have a Switch Lite that cannot read sd cards. I have tried different cards and still can’t read it. I get the following error message: Error code 2016-0641 unable to access media If I replace the micro sd reader, will that fix the issue or is there some kind of ic chip that I have to look...

    Picofly (RP2040) OLED getting error Failed to init eMMC. But with HWFLY working fine.

    When installing the chip, you are soldering a point to this resistor, which can get damaged from the heat. Of course if you didn’t do anything to this component, the chance of that this is the issue is unlikely.

    Picofly (RP2040) OLED getting error Failed to init eMMC. But with HWFLY working fine.

    The purple screen is due to the resistor at point A. The value is 4.7k ohm. Check what value you have.

    Hwfly rp2040 on oled, inconsistent boot

    I tried the default firmware on the hwfly and also upgraded the firmware to 2.74, giving me the same result. For the purple screen, it is most likely the resistor on CMD point is starting to fail.

    Hwfly rp2040 on oled, inconsistent boot

    I have installed a hwfly rp2040 chip/ribbons on an oled version with skhynix emmc chip. When I push the power on the switch, it does not always power on the hwfly chip (no led). I have to push the reset button on hwfly to get it to power on. Anybody knows why this is the issue? I swapped the...

    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.

    @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.
