Hello Everyone, (sorry for my bad english <3 )

i'll start this thread since there is some general discussion but nothing specific on this point.

i've received a couple of switch to repair that goes in black screen after a short on the "D" - CLK point (customer tried to install picofly/hwfly/tinify/etc)
i've removed the modd and i've tested everything and all the things looks good, all the reading is correct, but the console remain in BLACK screen no matter what

Reading on the points are quite good
- C - DAT0 Point : 4-5 MOhm / 0.5 - 0.7
- A - CMD Point : 10kOhm / 0.5 - 0.7
- D - CLK Point : 4-5 MOhm / 0.5 - 0.7
- B - RST Point : 40-50k / 1.2 - 1.4

on 3v3 line when i power on i can read the 3 volt value
all the main chip (MT92, usb, MAX, etc) have no shorts and looks good

since i don't have any other idea, and for fun... i've tried to change (just to make some test) the EMMC and also all the main chips (MT92, USB, etc.) but nothing.. switch is stuck in black screen

the only thing that i didn't change was the CPU.. what you think the issue can came from?
i've read on internet for different switch that dies with this short, but no solutions :)

thanks

If you mean they damaged their via that damage is irreversible.
A dirty way to tell if your CPU is dead is by measuring the cap near the MT92 chip.

The units are not in RCM mode are they? Not sure how these chips you mentioned work but when i installed my tinsy it was in rcm and would blackscreen if it did not have a payload sent.

Reading is good, the CLK point connect just cpu and emmc? There is no other component involved ?

    @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."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
