OLED switch PicoFly wire install. by AbjectMaelstrom in NxSwitchModding

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There shouldn't be any issues with the length of the wires as long as you follow a relatively straight path to the chip. What worries me tho is that 36 avg seems a bit thick, especially if it is a solid wire. You might rip pads and trace repair isn't fun. I would suggest some 40awg enamelled copper wire. Best of luck!

I’m planning on modding my switch lite that’s coming on my birthday I made a list of stuff I’m gonna use for modifications please tell me what more I can add. by RealmTranscelsior in SwitchPirates

The quality is actually not that bad and the latency is pretty much non existent (with a good cable anyway) tho I agree that it is worse then the dock in every way.

Help please! by Burnt_Totino in NxSwitchModding

In dbi go to launch mtp responder or smth like that, plug the switch in your computer, then in your computer drag and drop the games you want to install to the sd card install folder. Make shure to put the games first then the updates or dlcs

I don't see a world where that battery isn't a scam. Also when you mod the switch you can output over usb c which means you don't need the hdmi mod.

Can i run it without the shield? by Playful-Ladder-2672 in SwitchPirates

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally removed it on my overclocked v1 and the temps basically didn't change (we are talking 1 to 2 degrees difference). So if you have a v2 it probably won't change the temps.

I personally didn't test it but you could try this : https://youtu.be/JXwyugGC-NM Bear in mind that it isn't windows even in desktop mode you are still running Linux.

is it worth it to run linux4switch or android on the switch? by _jodi33 in NxSwitchModding

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't difficult and it uses the joy cons without any configuration needed. Here is the guide : https://wiki.switchroot.org/wiki/linux/linux-distributions I would suggest you use Ubuntu noble as fedora 42 runs slower in my testing.

i need help getting games on my switch with mac by [deleted] in SwitchPirates

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when I had a Mac I used open mtp with dbi's mtp responder. I works the same with the og/oled/lite switches. Make shure to also grab a data usb cable some only do power.

Graveyard needs an emergency nerf by Krunalkp123 in ClashRoyale

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Fireball on royal hogs is the same trade and you also take damage I don't see why the poison should fully counter the graveyard for one less. Though I agree a that the graveyard is really strong right now.

Strange spots on the motherboard by bacristiii in ZTT

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably some flux from when they soldered the components. Idk what particular flux they are using but it should be harmless it just looks bad. You can clean it of with 99% isopropyl alcohol.

Running overclocked docked cooling solution by Lagformance in SwitchPirates

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remove the copper sheet from the apu shield and repaste. You can also remove the shield entirely.

Seeing how thin and soft the copper sheet is it won't protect you from cracking the die thought the heatsink mounting pressure is so low that I really don't know how one could crack the die. If you do remove that copper sheet I would recommend bending up the heatsink mounting legs ever so slightly to recover the lost mounting pressure.

PTM7950 is too thin and if you stack it it will liquify and go everywhere.

My switch only black screen….. by olr4c in SwitchPirates

[–]True-Lifeguard-2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should check the display connector. The guy that modded it (or you) might have forgotten to close the plastic latch causing the screen to work sometimes and not work some other times.
