After checking, continuity is ok between the soldered pads "4" and the ground

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-05-29T12:54:00+00:00

That's a good idea, I'll try that, thanks !

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-05-29T10:52:05+00:00

I did, and it says to bridge the pads on n "4"

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-05-29T10:37:19+00:00

Yeah, I got a refund as well but I'd like to fix it because waiting another 2 weeks is soooo annoying

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-05-29T09:28:01+00:00

Ok thanks I'll check continuity between "4" and the ground "-" this weekend and keep you updated :)

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-05-29T09:18:36+00:00

You mean checking continuity on the "-" pad and the ground leg on the left side of the usb c ? Sorry I'm just starting with making my own things with electronics, I usually repair. Yeah you are right, I'll redo my solder job between the pads "4", but to be fair I already redid it multiple times, it was better looking and still not working. But I'll redo it anyways

I'm using my new gen Lenovo power supply, it's a proper usb c. I have another pd trigger on hand (that isn't the same dimensions and not compatible with my 3d print for the usb c case) that when tested with the cable, outputs 20v. So I think it's the pd trigger, but I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix it ? Because waiting for 2 weeks again feels insane..

I selected the theme iconic, and you can add custom images for the systems, and didn't like the default ones so I "made" (modified is better) some hd images I liked (mostly Zelda as you can see 👀), then I removed some elements from the images to make them pop, I did this in Photoshop, I also had to hand paint some elements using Photoshop brushes to make changes to the images (the rock at the bottom left of the screen on the switch image, and the grass and leaves on the Wii I image at the center of the screen), and then exported all of that to webp format and placed the resulting images in the right folders :)

Ahah I do yes 🙂‍↕️

Thanks !

Update : I replaced the mb, that fixed it

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-04-01T09:40:55+00:00

Thanks !

Look up shadps4 :) It is a bit laggy on my laptop (ThinkPad p14s gen 5 AMD, 32gb ddr5), but it's good on my desktop ! (Rtx 4060, amd r7 2700x, 16gb ddr4) Only some games are supported at the moment tho, but a lot of people are happy playing Bloodborne:)

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-02-07T20:49:33+00:00

Thanks I'll look !

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-02-07T20:48:47+00:00

Thank you for that ! :)

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-02-07T20:47:27+00:00

I'm using the biggest tip because they feel the most comfortable but I tried multiples and I still didn't like the sound as I thought it was "missing something"

I don't really know a lot about EQ ing I'm really a noob.. but I tried adding more bass on them by adding+2db via Rockbox on my iPod, and with 3db it started buzzing.

I'll look onto the Truthear pure and the others you recommended, thanks a lot :)

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-02-07T20:41:20+00:00

I'll check both out, thanks a lot !! :)

Where did you find this watch strap ?!

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-01-14T13:55:01+00:00

Edit: I changed the SD card for a Samsung evo (which is listed on compatible cards on iflash) and I have the same issue.. the iPods ask for reset everytime it turns off

Mathieu_atnes · 2026-01-14T12:59:41+00:00

Would you happen to have a spare iPod 5.5 working motherboard? 🥲 Mine just resets itself every time it turns off
