Hello,

So yesterday I installed an Instinct nx v6s. It was glitching but also flashing red and going to OFW.

I thought I did something wrong with the installation. Removed everything and tried with another console and I have exactly the same result. Also, I flashed the latest firmware that I could fin

I've searched around and I could find something that says 7 red flashes it's a faulty FPGA, can anyone confirm? Any solution or I need another NX

In the second video you can see it blinking green, which is a successful glitch.
But as the screen shows, you either didn't insert the SD card or the right files are missing on the SD card (or the SD card is formatted incorrectly).
Maybe this is what the red light is trying to tell you?

Thank you for the replies

It does glitch randomly and fails randomly. I bought some new ones to try a swap.

In the meantime, I'll try the putty method. I suppose when is flashing red, I can get the error code? Any place I can find the putty commands available? All I could find was the R to reset

Press h. It is likely a dat0 error. Try kamikaze if you have the skills and equipment.

I tried to debug it with putty. It glitches correctly every time I diagnose and the rest of the info seems ok. That said, it seems to work every time if I don't power on right after but wait a couple of minutes.
I'll wait for to try another chip, I don't really think is related to Dat0 but no way to be sure. I'm not equipped to try the kamikaze method, so I hope is related to the chip

I had the same issue, with the physical orientation of the switch being important (lying face down on the bench, it mostly worked). Likely due to the dat0 adaptor having only partial contact.

Solved it by doing kamikaze.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
