Hi, I really liked your video. I am attempting my first Switch OLED upgrade this week with a PicoFly chip and will use this video as my guide. At a guess I think you are also a UK man, also by your accent you live near me, near or in the Black Country? I'm in Lichfield Would it be possible if I get stuck, I can reach out to you?

Thanks, awesome news v2’s are good experience, as i think most people mess up the APU caps so you’ve dont most the hard work before :)

Thanks my friend. I just ordered my oled chip from aliexpress.. Hopefully I will manage to build this switch without damaging.. Did three switch v2 so far, but the oled one is on another level 😮

Just really take your time. If you’ve done three v2’s then you know to take it easy on the APU caps. The hardest part of this getting the d point exposed, just take your time. The emmc can be tricky too so make sure you lock it into place. Good luck :) hope it goes well

Heyy The chip arrived and I did manage to install it, but sadly I receive a =* led.. ( dat0 not connected..) But it is connected and I get a good reading with my multimeter. I am a little bit stuck and don't really know how to figure the issue ourt.. Any quick idea? By the way i like your humor 😂👍

@@HardstyleTommY have you checked all the points? point A also links to the NAND so double check to make sure that's connected. What diode reading are you getting for Dat O? When you connect the ribbon to the picofly board, whats the diode reading you get on the C test point on the board please? If you're on discord Iyates - might be easier to talk there

Nice ! 👍

Hi, im not an expert in this, relatively new, but wouldnt it make it easier to tin the components first prior to installation to make it a little easier? Thanks in advance

@QTronics

2 ай бұрын

personally, I find with these installs, tinning the pads can make the ribbons stiffer. Especially the APU ribbon for me I find when it's tinned it doesn't sit in placer nicely . Other do tin prior, it's just preference I dont for the apu.

what happens when I solder everything and the led lights up and the Nintendo turns on but the screen is black . Happened to me after resoldering the flex cable because I flipped the right side of it the wrong way .

@QTronics

Have you taken the mod chip off? Does it boot normally? What do you mean you flipped the flex wrong?

Hi, great video! I am looking to buy a PicoFly or an instinct V6 for my OLED. Which one do you think is better and easier to install? Also, do you have a reputable store for the chips and a good dat0 adapter? Thanks

@QTronics

22 күн бұрын

This is the latest version of the Picofly with a good adapter : www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007196605609.html ( it installs on the cpu the same way the instinct does) In terms of install, I believe the instinct has more points to solder. So it's all down to how confident you are. I think the Instinct's also cost more? The way I see it is the picofly boards are fine, no real need for the instinct. Once the console is booted the boards dont do anything, it's only on the initial launch. I think the Instinct board might be slightly faster at initial boot that's all.

I've had to redo the Dat 0 point a couple times. It'll read good but then a few weeks later it'll all of a sudden stop working and it'll read 2.0v. Not sure why or what I'm doing wrong.

@QTronics

3 ай бұрын

Tbh, im not sure. Could simply be more pressure was needed before soldering it. I think it depends on the adapter too. Some of them let you solder to the resistor to the side. Which should stop it slipping. It could also be some flux moving under the chip over time

@Tech_Wes_

17 күн бұрын

I'd also suggest a thin wire like 36awg. I've been using i think 30awg and they're a bit too thick i think, then tension and pressure maybe be too intense for it. It sounds unconventional, but i use hot glue sometimes as well to prevent the wire tugging the dat0 connection. Funny enough some manufacturers actually use glue in electronics/pcbs, totally safe.

@QTronics

16 күн бұрын

@@Tech_Wes_ Yeah smaller wire might help, could even use magnet wire. Hot glue actually might help with this, if the glue is in place enough to give the adapter a little more tension.
