Hello Guys,

I repaired another OLED switch, this time a Zelda edition, but in sleep mode the joycons are jiggling and the battery is draining like hell.

What I already tried:
- I swapped the MB in another oled console and its the same,
- same with another joycons,
- same with different modship (instinct nx and picofly),
- same in CFW or OFW,
- same if I restore the emmc,
- same in airplane mode.

This is what I repaired on this console:
- broken CLK line
- screen connector replaced
- permanent dat0, I reballed 3 times the emmc to try to get rid of this issue
- CMD resistor replaced

On this console the instinct-nx was taking a lot of time to gitch the console, so I replaced it by a Picofly.

But to not have a slow emmc mode I had to add +47ohms on the CMD point, and +3x47ohms on the dat0 point.

I did maybe 30 oled modchips, with only picoflys. Usually I only add +47ohms on the CLK point to not have a emmc slow mode.

I find nothing on internet about this issue.

What could cause this issue ?

Thank you 🙏🏻

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.

    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.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @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.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
