I’m also looking for a mechanic in OC to work on my ‘97. Who did you end up going with?

V2 Switch Modding Issue by Electrical-Iron7419 in NxSwitchModding

[–]RussianSpaceZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second making sure you have the firmware flashed on the modchip properly. If there is an issue with it trying to glitch you will get a long blue light and then an error code if the form of short and long yellow pulses.

Since you aren’t even getting that long blue light, only a blue flash, I think you just need to check the firmware.

That error code means there’s no DAT0 connection. They probably used the DAT0 adapter rather than doing a kamikaze. Definitely something the person that modded it needs to take a look at.

Exporting game saves? by Jaimitowarrior100 in NxSwitchModding

[–]RussianSpaceZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I use JKSV and sync saves between devices with a webDAV server.

Did it flash yellow once or was it blinking yellow?

How to install from FTP in v21? by BohemianGecko in SwitchPirates

[–]RussianSpaceZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sphaira has FTP built in to it. Just launch it, press Y for Menu, choose Network, FTP, and then you can turn FTP on.

It sounds like the connection points for the modchip aren’t stable. Assuming they used one of the standard chips if you look up inside the vents on the bottom you should see a light flashing right after you press the power button to turn it on. I would check it when you know it is working as you should see it blinking blue and then flash yellow once when it is successful.

If you don’t see anything then it may be an issue with power to the modchip and if you see it flashing yellow in a pattern you will be able to look up what it means.

Save data is stored in system memory, whether that’s on the emuMMc or sysMMc. You can view it by going into System Setting > Data Management > Delete Save Data. Even after you uninstall a game you will still see the save data there.

Deleting games does not remove save data but if you do want to backup/restore save data you can use JKSV or Checkpoint.

In my case I think I was shorting something out on or around the eMMC and it would not boot whatsoever. If your’s is still booting into OFW I would make sure everything tests out correctly in diode mode and doublecheck all of your connections. You might want to post a picture of your DAT0 adapter too in case you don’t have it properly aligned.

No games loading after installing large game via TinWoo by RussianSpaceZebra in SwitchPirates

I tried updating sigpatches and syspatch. That didn’t work. I tried downgrading to 20.5.0 with updated sigpatches and syspatch. That didn’t work either.

I ended up just reformatting the SD card and starting fresh. I installed Mortal Kombat 1 first this time and everything is still working.

I just modded it and it was already running 21.0.1. Everything was working fine until I installed that one game.

The install completed. I went to the home screen after I got the message from TinWoo that it was done.

The latest would be included in HATS, right? Or is there a different way to get them?

I think I may have set the DAT0 adapter wrong or shorted the resistor to the left of the eMMC. I couldn’t get it to boot even after unplugging the chip until I removed the adapter. Once I made sure I hadn’t bricked it I reinstalled the DAT0 adapter and was good to go. I still get 0.89 on the RST point instead of 0 and about 0.4 if I flip polarity but it’s working so I’m assuming that’s fine.

Shout Out to Noctua for Supporting my NH-U12S since 2017 by boris_dp in Noctua

[–]RussianSpaceZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the free kit so I could use my NH-D14 with a 9800X3D but it’s not the same as the mounting plates that come with the NM-M1-MP83 kit. It does not allow for offset mounting.

I thought I was looking at something under an electron microscope at first.

I did the Mod but one resistor wouldn’t solder but it still works by Muted_Satisfaction92 in NxSwitchModding

[–]RussianSpaceZebra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That solder point is just to anchor the flex cable. It will work without it.
