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

    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
