Hello, I installed a picofly on my OLED switch, and I made a tin ball on several components on the side of the point (B) ( RST) and at first the processor became boiling, then I saw the tin ball in the microscope, so I removed it the processor from the switch is no longer boiling but no sign of life, when I connect to my socket I have 5.52v and 0.49a without a screen (just the battery) do you have an idea? Thank you… I send you a pics
When I have short this part what I broke ? CPU? ( sorry iam French )

You are missing one half of the capacitor in picture #1.
But the processor becoming boiling hot is a bad sign.
Usually that only happens when you short out something or feed a voltage that is way too high.
The ripped off pads of the casing in picture #2 and #3 probably won't matter much.
They are just connected to the ground plane.

Although I would recommend sending it to a good repair shop, maybe someone here knows how to proceed.
Head over to the picofly thread and humbly mentioned that you f-ed up badly :

Hello, thank you for your answer,
for the capacitor it is an optical effect because it is intact,
I swap them with an OLED motherboard and still nothing at startup... if you have any other idea or what I can test? Thanks

Show your front side work, the CMD, CLK area

Nvm, I believe your cpu toasted. Check the voltage around max77821 without the modchip
How to check the voltage around the MAX chip?





I just reinstalled the Pico Fly


When I start the switchI just reinstalled the Pico Fly


When I turn on the switch, the chip flashes white, then blue, then flashes blue infinity





It’s already a better sign, I think, but no image on the screen

    I only drank alcohol once and it was by accident

    I didnt know it was beer, it was on a juice bottle

    Yeah, I'm addicted to smoking, sadly. It's very addictive but I wish I didn't start.

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds
