    Hi all, i had a rp tiny installed working fine and one day the switch stopped working. After opening it and searching for the problem i found a ripped clk pad (see the picture) now i dont know what is the best option to repair it, i tried to apply flux and solder tin to make a bridge but did not...

    Hi, i damaged the clk solder point on a v2 switch, i already have the 3.3v soldered to the emmc, could you please say me where should solder the wire to have an alternative point of the clk ? Thanks

    So if i understand well, there is a firt batch with bad resistors that need to be replaced for the correct ones, and other batch with correct resistors, but my problem here is that my first rp2040 zero had a shortcircuit between gnd and 3.3v pads and i dont know the reason. Some people told me...

    So what is de difference between installing the tiny and the zero? There are no buttons or usb ports to be unsoldered i guess but you need to install the 47omh resistors as well right? And there is some voltage regulator or something else to be unsoldered? Are the led codes the same? Thank you...

    If I removed the regulator of the rp but the shortcut between gnd and 3.3v persisted so i removed all the rp2040 and now the switch at least works fine in ofw mode, the battery was completely drained and took some time to charge, maybe the shortcut of the rp2040 drained it, i tried to turn on...

    I followed the instructions of the (at that moment v3) guide of @lightninjay and nothing about removing a regulator was writen. It is removing this recomended? You mean the component number 6 of the photo i attach? Thank you

    Hi, i followed the picofly guide some weeks ago with a mariko v2 and after some trouble soldering the 3.3v wire to the cap everything worked fine, i have been using hekate and atmosphere without problem for 2 weeks or so. Suddenly yesterday i tried to turn on the switch and nothing happened, no...

    Hi, i destroyed the exact same cap when tried to solder 3.3v wire and the only problem is that without that cap the switch do not charge in fast mode when is plugged in the dock, and if you plug in the dock when the switch is completely turned off the dock enters in an error mode (green light...

    I did that, but without usb and buttons the rp is still very thick to put without making some strenght and bending a bit the metal shell to close the console, the thing is the tiny rp only has components in one face and that makes much more thinner, but i dont know if tiny rp would be a better...

    I join the question, i installed the rp2040 zero in a mariko v2 and works fine but the rp is too thick to close the console correctly without cutting the metal shell because is too thick, so in the near future i will replace for a thinner one, i was thinking in that picoboard you showed and in...

    In autoreply to my question, i need to find another 3.3v point because installed the picofly and soldered all the connections and all seemed to work fine, launched hekate and atmos without problem but when trying to put the switch in the dock a green light started blinking in one side of the...

    Yeah i used flux and removed the bridge but in the process i damaged the solder cap so i can not solder the point showed in the guide anymore, i tested with a multimeter the point below and is 3.3v too, so i tried to solder there but the wire seems to bridge both components. My question is if...
