    I wanted to thank you for your guide. I just finished the mod with my switch after buying a microscope and practicing a while with SMD training kits before attempting the work myself.
    You can only appreciate the work you do once you did it yourself, everything is so tiny and I'm always afraid to break something.
    Thumps up, keep up the good work and guides !

      Theoretically, it is easy to solder such tiny smd parts. Just don't keep your solder iron too long on one spot. Doing this increases your risk to damage these parts. I solder permanently with 350 degrees and never had any problems with it.

  • @ocstrangeness
    @ocstrangeness Месяц назад

    The hardest parts were trimming the heatsink and reattaching the sd-card port. As for the points: Use a multimeter to check the continuity values of the resistors. Install the flex cable and recheck the values. If they aren't responding then you'll know they're not connected. And use good flux, best brand is Stirri v3-TF.

    hey i have a question as we saw the mod chip comes with a usb-c port is it not necessary to uninstall the original usb-c port from the switch and install the modded one? and if so am i still able to connect the switch via pc to inject payloads? or can i do that just from the sd card?

    • @fixingmoddingbuilding
      @fixingmoddingbuilding  10 месяцев назад

      The USB port is for the chip to add or change the firmware, you might never need it.

      It's a two month old comment but the answer is you only need that usb to interface with it initially to load the firmware from a file downloaded on your pc. Once installed if didn't come preinstalled you can remove it and never use it again. The original usb stays and the two never have anything to do with each other it's just so a pc can initially interface with modchip to put firmware on modchip (hacking program)

    Hello, my chip just arrived, I connected it to the PC but I only see that the blue light turns on and then a red/orange one but it does not open any folder on my PC, does this mean that it has the firmware already loaded inside?
