[QUOTE="rookiesearcher, post: 10359463, member: 691180"] What I meant was my personal switch is a v2. This one is a v1. ismyswitchpatched.com says partially patched. You need the switch to work in handheld for hacking it? [automerge]1708263817[/automerge] I'll try the flashlight thing. could you help me with exactly what a digitizer is? What part do I need to look up and buy to get my screen to work, and also replace the scratched bit (the screen) with a new one that isn't scratched. Do I look up replacement Nintendo switch screen? This brings me to clear panels, LCD panels, and who knows what else. [automerge]1708268460[/automerge] Alright, so I tried the flashlight thing, and it worked. I can faintly see the screen now.
