I soldered a picofly with flex cable on a v2 switch.
The led turns on blue then a single short yellow flash.

I then setup an SD with FAT32, and put kefir on it. It showed up on boot, I could go in HB menu, run atmosphere usb tool, tinfoil, then I tried to transfer one NSP throught USB with tinfoil, but got a message telling me it wasnt signed, and I have to enable an option. But I could not go further : the console did freeze, I had to power if off with a long press on the power button.

On the next power on, it crashed with a message telling that sleep lib (or something similar) was missing. I then powered it off, remove the SD, reinstalled everything on it, but now everytime I try to power on, it just keep doing nothing but a black screen. The picofly stills make a blue then yellow flash, I even got the message "no sd card" if I try to boot without sd, but nothing else...
I can't even manage to get the kefir splash...

Of course, I didn't take a mmc backup first, thinking (my bad...) it was useless....

What should I try ?

Thanks

Show us the soldering and also try with a fresh install without kefir….
I cant post links but if you search this site for kefir you can see that you are not the only one with problems with kefir.

And whyyyyyyyy did you not make a backup, thats the first thing you do.
Every guide tell you to make a backup.

Guess your only intention was to pirate games… always backup first.

    @BigOnYa, I think that listening to the same 15 songs on the music player in my dad's car all the time made me kind of hate "normal" music.

    I seen a bunny rabbit get swept up and taken by a hawk yesterday in my back yard, it left a bunch of rabbit hair in grass. Wild to see it fly off carrying a rabbit.
