    Hardware Components used on the Switch (mostly the motherboard and main console)

    Pretty specific, but this is the Joy-Con battery female connector (the one that sits on the PCB): https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/538-78171-0002

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    It is not a resistor, you can tell by the shape. With the component removed from the circuit, it reads nearly infinite resistance and 100 pF in capacitance. It would make sense for it to be a capacitor since this is a button and it needs to be debounced. Even though the capacitor seems fine, my...

    Hacking Question Disable volume buttons in Horizon?

    Hm, do you mean it's not possible to override the button action in software, or even disable the GPIOs?

    Thanks for the visual. That component looks like a capacitor to me. I haven't tried removing it but I don't have much hope that it's related to this issue.

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    It's definitely not grounded. I've mentioned I've tested continuity and it's not shorted to anything. The GPIO is connected just as it should be, but it's being pulled down internally by the Tegra or something else that's broken. Can you show me where this other resistor is? I'd like to inspect...

    Hacking Question Disable volume buttons in Horizon?

    Hi everyone, Does anyone with some CFW knowledge know if I can disable the volume buttons in Horizon? My motherboard has a hardware issue where the volume Up button gets pressed on its own, so I would like to disable the button in software. I'm guessing I'd need some custom sysmodule that...

    Well, I've looked at the motherboard for a long time and I can't seem to fix the volume button issue. The physical button is fine; I disconnected it and it still thinks it's "pressed". Replacing the 150 ohms resistor with a wire changed nothing. I added an external pullup, but the button is...

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    That resistor must just be a passthrough, not a pullup. I'd expect a pullup to be above 1k ohms. I've looked at the 150 ohm resistor and it's not shorted to anything. Do you know if there is an external pullup resistor anywhere else on the board? If there is, I don't think I ever touched it, so...

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    I haven't test Tinfoil with the Trinket desoldered but I believe the issue is purely software. It seems to happen if I use certain install paths on the PC (e.g. if I define the path as relative it will crash, but not if I define it as absolute). My issue with the volume button hasn't gone away...

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    I figured the Trinket couldn't cause this issue but it seems like such a strange coincidence for the volume button to be affected. The issue exists as soon as the console is powered (even in RCM) so I don't think it's caused by software. I think my motherboard must have some abnormal issue...

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    I'm a little confused now. I got the same error with Tinfoil again even though it had been working (using the 0.9.8r2 UF2, not the test one you linked). Now, the Switch behaves as if the volume up button is always pressed, even though I did not connect a wire to it. I've fully powered it down...

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    It seems like my issue may have had more to do with my PC. Tinfoil threw an error when I was trying to install software from an external drive, but it does not when I try to install from the PC storage. As for Goldleaf, it still hangs, so I think that issue may be a bug in Goldlead itself...

    Hacking WIP [Trinket] [Rebug] [Others] SWITCHBOOT_UF2 / FUSEE_UF2 modchip software

    Thanks for helping me troubleshoot this. I tried that UF2 image and the USB issue with TInfoil stopped. However, I put the 0.9.8r2 UF2 back on the Trinket and Tinfoil works now. I have no what changed. What exactly is the USB strap for? I couldn't find any clear description of what it does and...

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.
