Good morning.
Exist any RST alternative solder point in OLED NAND?
Thanks.

So what is the current best chip for OLED? I’m a bit lost with all the different versions.. I will be installing these chips for the first time on mine and a friends OLED. Will need to ship to UK

Well at this price I've bit the bullet on behalf of my partner and purchased this at a mere £22

Certainly hope we've done the right thing

The price seems very fair in my very humble opinion

Still cheaper using picofly. Its cost effective, and performant wise.

Tried with RP2040-zero on my Switch Lite. Stable work for a week now, no issues.
Works well with 47R resistors (samsung emmc) and IRFH3707 mosfets. Two mosfets set in parallel and soldering to two capacitors on CPU. With a single mosfet there was cyan light all the way. I guess any comparable mosfets (8-10 amps and low voltage gate) should work if you cant find OG's.

Also, anyone knows better point to get 3v3 on switch lite? Point on small cap under flex conn is pain.

Can you share image install of mosfet? thanks

Just pointing out that so far this place has next to no orders and the original "official" store is 50% more expensive. Hopefully it's legitimate.

Open question: ignoring price, objectively is this Instinct chip better or worse than a well installed picofly?

Yea looks very sketchy

Might bail on this if this works on a mariko

good bye have fun Xd

it all depends on what u want to pay and how much work u want to put in.
but hwfly & intinct nx chipt are not much harder to install then the pico fly, only difference is u dont have single kabel u have to install if u use the flex cables from hwfly chips. U have the same amount of soldering points u need to solder to.

NOT tested, so NOT putting into the main post (will be updated once I test everything).

no guarantees, use at your own risk.
for those who can't wait

!!!!PINOUT!!!! (resistors / mosfets are still required)

Common GPIO for all boards:
CMD => 28
CLK => 27
RST => 26

Waveshare 2040-zero / 2040-one (default, floating pins 29, 11, 16):
DAT => 29
CPU => 15

Raspberry Pi Pico (detected by thermal sensor on pin 29):
DAT => 22
CPU => 21

XIAO2040 (detected by LED power on pin 11):
DAT => 29
CPU => 6

Adafruit ItsyBitsy (detected by LED power on pin 16):
DAT => 29
CPU => 24

ChangeLog:
- fixed regulator setup
- firmware update feature (+ rollback to backup in case of non-working fw update)
- multiple boards support (no idea if that works, magic, ensure LED blinks after write! that means detection worked fine!!)
- extended OFW support, should not break BOOT0 anymore, OFW BCT is copied into the unused space

P.S. I need some rest.

no alternativ solder points for Dat0 On Led well actually ther is one but u would have to drill a whole in the board but i wouldnt rick doing it Xd

I've disconnected the flex and checked the flex.The continuety is there up to the mosfet.No problem there.

I'm using a felx cable form the hwfly v2 flex and has 2 mosfets

did u check all the pins?

 

[RexSonic]

Really not entirely sure tbh, here's the product https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005412303511.html?

Lol they just jacked the price after couple of orders

Also its a random selling store. Nothing focused on one thing. Never the less, buyer protection

 

[FreeLander]

Hello. I'd like to thank the devs for this great job. One question if I may: When I flashed my rp2040 and re-plugged it. It gives a blue light then white, I saw a video on YouTube where it shows a purple color, not white. Am I good or is there something wrong? Video attached, Thanks.

 

[Dee87]

that normal behavure i think when nothing is installed .. i think
thats cyan it looks like after blue
u need to install it
if u flashed it and after the flash was red everything should be finde
install and see what colors u get if it doesnt work

need to set RGB jumper

I paid with PayPal so have some buyer protection there, so even if it doesn't arrive I'll have some support

At £22 I'm more than happy with the price, I saw a couple of people mentioned it's cheaper to buy pico etc... and one that even laughed at my post, however I'm happy with that price for a reasonably tried and tested product

So fingers crossed

Can you show the mosfet diagram please?

 

[Dee87]

and one that even laughed at my post

yes that was me

why because if funny how the prices have been dropping the last couple days

Ahh that explains it, thanks Dee... seems a great price to me

If I wasn't so old with bad eyes, shaky hands and constant migraines I might give the pico a try... but would probably still f*ck it up all the same

Hello. Thank you for replying on such short notice. Excuse my ignorance but could you tell me how? Thank you!

Hello. Thanks.
I scanned through it and I saw the pic below. Kindly asking, Is it by done by setting a bridge between these two points?
