Hey Phill Ive just done a video on a switch EMMC repair it was a shorted MLCC on the EMMC board if you don’t mind checking it out hopefully help you out, have you ever had a shorted ceramic cap on a switch before ? Fuck the haters mate they are probably jealous of your skill, fast diagnostic methods and ability to preform complex repairs don’t waste your time on them. You know what standards you can film your videos at and how you want to execute them as long as you are comfortable that’s all that matters, I personally don’t see any reason for no one to dislike your videos, but they will your content is enjoyable, clear and perfectly watchable🤘😎

Very interesting video, like always, very cool to see all your repairs, that can help a lot of peoples, and repair shop, that maybe, don't know everything on every console :)

I really appreciate, how you explained your diagnostic process.. Cheers!

Great effort, mate! Shame it didn't go quite as well as other repairs, but nonetheless you had lots of work to make it work. Keep showing us your magic! And it is magic sometimes! 😀

Thanks mate, yeah bit of a shame but these things happen for sure

I really loved this video, even if it is a no direct fix you still show and explain so much so we all learn from your experiance so thank you very much for that. I was wondering what the burnmark on that one chip was? Is that a hint to a problem? Also you say that the nand and cpu are married but in which way? Is it by software or hardware id's or something? Oh also the new camera angles are really nice and make it overall nicer to watch so please leave then like they are now. Keep up the great video's m8 👍

Thanks mate. Yeah I didn't notice the burn mark until I was editing the video but it was a sign that the chip had an internal short. Yeah the cpu and nand are married by hardware ID I believe but there is a way around it, I just don't know how lol. Regarding the camera angles I'll be adjusting them next week anyway as I will be moving the workshop into my loft :)

These things happen. I have days like that where the brain overcomplicated the situation and I forgot to start at the simple and move to the hard fix. Great video and pity it didn't end better but most likely someone will be able to send you step by step guide to sorting it so you'll probably have that board back in action soon. Love the content 👍

Cheers for this video and very interesting. As others have said it can be rebuilt without a back up but a long process. I think you will lose the actual id or serial. May be you can clone it with one of your broken board but not sure if this can be done. I have seen somewhere about nand uniqueness rebuild.

Like before watching bro 👍The software repairs is not that complicated like u imagine, everything on the KZread these days 😉 good luck for more repairs, thank you so much we like your videos, keep going.

Hi I really like your videos and I learnt a lot in hardware switch but this time I would help you in software I think he just downgraded firmware this is why it is not booting on OFW you have to boot RCM mode with atmosphere to skip efuse check then upgrade to the latest firmware and it's good. I've done many in my shop bro 👌🏾 If you disable the RCM mode and the console is still stuck to RCM then it's hardware related.

Are you able to get your bis_key_03 by booting into "modded" version of the switch? If so you can swap out the CHIP and transfer the key to a new one. Lockpick should be able to get it

Hey mate, I was curious if you had a suggestion for me. I bought a lot of 10 broken switches with some repair attempts made by an inexperienced tech. I can handle repair attempts but he had removed the nand from all of them and did not label which went with which system. Is there any way to distinguish which is mated to which board. As of right now I wouldn't even know if any repairs I do would have worked. Much appreciated!

rcm is a maintenance mode, its for finding out different things within a Switch. its like an engineers hidden software to find out all the details of a device. A Nand is the emmc is mainly like a computers hard drive.

@@TheCod3r been looking into it its not a straight forward process for anyone so would likely give you a headache also would need a disclaimer on it as you could brick your device doing it incorrectly and like you said your not software person so its not worth taking the risk really Their are two methods as far as i understand software but i think with this your limited to exploitable switches not sure about the ones that are not The other way is hardware device like :- E-Mate X 13 in 1 BGA eMMC Chip Reader Writer i did wonder why you took that board out though as in its original casing it has the right serial no. so couldnt you have just added other bits to that one instead rather than taking the board out.

so using the hardware to fix this :- maybe their is someone out their who has tried this method & copied chip then wrote to a new chip then reinstall it and see if it works but i just cant see someone doing that well maybe its worth it and maybe their are other things you can do but it all costs alot of money i think you said you got your blogger camera now are you doing a review of it the 4k one

its fixable I fix one 4 months ago for my kid lol wish I can buy that one 4 you

what is RCM mode then ?

Someone said to hold the power button down for 10 seconds to exit rcm mode or recovery mode.

More and more devices are based on NAND and more and more are none fixable because of that. So, it would be awesome, if someone would start to crack them and make them possible to use in some sort of universal way. But, I'm not there to try it :) yet. Maybe someone else ;).
