Hello, I have a puzzling problem happening with two New 3DS XL’s that I’ve been repairing. I bought a black one that wasn’t working and in my process of diagnosing its problems I swapped its motherboard to my known working red one. After swapping back the motherboards to the their original housings, my red ds that used to work fine with no problems now has a strange issue. On the home menu around 2 seconds after starting up the menu scrolls all the way to the right as if a button is stuck. However I’ve checked all my connections and they should be fine. Is there any issue I don’t know about? It still boots but has the scrolling issue, I’ve tried unplugging everything etc.

3DS RED: Everything functional and normal except it starts scrolling to the right automatically. C-Stick, D-pad, and Joystick works fine every direction. L and R work fine but ZL and ZR don’t do anything. I assume that it thinks ZR is stuck down? But it’s not.

3DS BLACK: When I have the SD card in: Turns on to a blank black screen with the blue and orange Wi-Fi light lit. I can hear the home screen audio and the sound of it scrolling. Then the system shuts down and restarts around every 5 seconds. When I take the SD card out it first shows the Luma setup menu then I click Start and then it does all of the above, black screen with home audio and restarts.

    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.

    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
