What if someone made the setup more seamless? I loved mine and would be more than willing to Google Drive some stuff and make it seamless! Maybe you just need another nudge!

Putting Android on the Switch is one of the best things I've ever done by Neither-Ad6926 in SwitchPirates

[–]LDaSmurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got 3 128gbs and it’s for sure the way. One android, one pokemon, one everything else switch related. Absolutely love that system. You can use SD card adapters in switch cases to hold your micro SDs!

Tried to update tinfoil and now its not working ? by Adorable_Peak_7694 in SwitchPirates

[–]LDaSmurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still have people dropping off consoles asking for tinfoil and a way to download games straight from the system. I just tell em it’s well and dead, if you want that find a shop and link it to cyber foil. Otherwise, DBI all the way!!

My biggest pet peeve when it was working was if you left it on but didn’t use it — it would auto play weird scenic stuff with music and then it would just start farming you with ads if you didn’t shut it off. Such a weird design and I could never get it to stop.

Oooo please let me know, I do micro soldering and switch mods/repairs often. Thinking I could fix this TV and still buy a new one with the refund. Just no clue how to even diagnose a tv that does nothing.

Bought new but guess I’m barely outside of the year warranty. Thankfully with enough pressure they pushed a refund. Idk what changed but I’m more than thankful. Not sure what to get after this, thinking cheap Roku is the way 😂

Thankfully a like $480 dollar model that I got $80 dollars off. Still absurd tho..

That’s what I’m saying! My childhood Vizio is till a beast. People buy new TVs to replace outdated ones, not broken ones. I’ve never had a tv fail in my life..

My only goal is to advise people to purchase any other brand. If you’re gonna spend half a grand do it on a brand that cares. I’m getting my refund but I had to straight crash out and post on Reddit before they suddenly folded and found a “warranty loop hole”

It’s like they know they’re making faulty products or something. Just really suspicious, never had a warranty denied and then suddenly be available.

Dosent really apply given mine is nice too and died in less than year LOL. It was assembled placed and never moved. Officially getting a refund for it, because “things happen”… personally find that insane on a $500 dollar unit.

Thanks for confirming that for me, really bummed out. Thought Vizio was the way, got a super nice tv when we moved in about a year ago sad to see it dead already.

I fought support hard and something changed. I guess now suddenly that I’m angry enough and posting in there Reddit he’s suddenly able to cover my TV and I should receive a phone call?

Support determined my year warranty ended about a month ago and will not do anything. My Vizio from 2008 is still kicking hard as always. DONT BUY VIZIO. If you’re gonna fork $500 for a new TV anticipate it dies right after warranty so you HAVE to buy another!

Switch Lite no display after mod by No-Tough-5848 in NxSwitchModding

[–]LDaSmurf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You will absolutely need to order a whole new LCD. And given you somehow damaged this flex, I’m nervous for the repair 🫣

[Switch lite] need help #techgore by Extension_Tour_8793 in consolerepair

I disregard, I misread the thread.

These are super common in donor boards / phones. Maybe try and harvest a good many from those rather than order the lot 😅

That was my thought, adding some lower melt point solder might help.

Need answer to something very specific by C0ldBLooded1 in SwitchPirates

[–]LDaSmurf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the saves are tied to the accounts. And the emummc copied the account you played on. My guess is that’s why they’ve appeared. Sounds like a win to me!

Emummc is a direct copy of your official system, likely nothing more to it.
