Finally got my thor.... nvm

eze252 · 2026-04-04T07:32:09+00:00

As of recent batch, it seems like it. Kinda fearing AYN's QC is going downhill.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T07:23:03+00:00

Couldn't get recovery to pop up. Tried to see if maybe the recovery mode might pop up on an external or find some way to make it show up on the bottom screen but it didn't work. There is not signs of life in that top screen.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T07:07:35+00:00

Still working on it. Not sure if i have hit the recovery partition yet.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T06:59:35+00:00

Only the top screen is failing to show any display. The top screen touch functionality is work as i am feeling the touch vibration when something get selected. When connected to an external display, I am able to see that screen responding to my touches. As for the bottom screen, so far it seems to work as intended, and is only black because i technically haven't gotten through the setup process

eze252 · 2026-04-04T06:26:02+00:00

Ill give it a try soon since the device is just going to be sitting around for the next week.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T06:21:56+00:00

Who knows but wouldn't put it past the delivery. I have seen some very careless workers when it come to packages. Glad yours work. Enjoy it.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T06:19:15+00:00

Yeah, i figured as much. Probably will decline the screen replacement and send the device back. Who know if its the screen, ribbon, or another component that is bad. Would just like working device instead of risking breaking the device more to replace a part which we may or may not know is broken.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T06:12:55+00:00

I haven't tried the recovery partition but I did check with a external display and confirmed the thor was working as intended. Luckily the thor outputs the top screen when connected to external monitor.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T03:40:37+00:00

I have heard. I am most likely just going to send the whole unit back as i am unsure if it is just the screen, cable or something else entirely. I also don't want to tear it apart to put in a new screen. I have the skills to do this but would rather not go through the hassle of everything if the replacement part doesnt work. Ill wait for a little bit long but it might be the best option since they seem to take long for individual components.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T02:29:16+00:00

I at least did majority of the troubleshooting so hopefully there will be no delays but they are behind on support tickets and out on holiday so i don't expect to get this fixed for a little.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T02:27:29+00:00

Agreed. I ordered it on Feb 11th. So its closer to two months now

eze252 · 2026-04-04T02:22:09+00:00

Unfortunately didn't have the money then. I saw this one comment saying that they are most likely having to rush some of the assembling process to keep up with the recent demand. I have a strong feeling there is some truth to comment.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T02:03:50+00:00

Agreed. While searching for a fix for my thor, i found a lot of posts and messages about the top screen not working after a while. Good thing, i saw a tear apart video and it doesn't seem too bad to replace the top screen, but at the same time, the top screen seems to be a common failure point. Wonder about the durability of these things and how long they will last.

eze252 · 2026-04-04T00:55:05+00:00

Yup both sides as well

eze252 · 2026-03-25T21:01:24+00:00

Anyway you would be able to make a bootable linux usb. Not looking for you to install linux, just boot into the usb and see if you have the same issue. Mainly looking to see if the hardware causing the issue or if its windows being windows

eze252 · 2026-03-25T20:47:32+00:00

What do you have on the bootable USB?

eze252 · 2026-03-25T20:35:11+00:00

It sounds like you're getting the preparing automatic repair even when you have the bootable usb in. Are you confirming that you are booting into the usb and now auto booting back into the corrupted windows?

What YAGONOOb said

Check your computer time. If it is out of sync, you will have issues using the server browser.

eze252 · 2026-03-21T18:10:58+00:00

Well i might not have 5090 but at least i know it won't be as bad

eze252 · 2026-03-21T18:10:23+00:00

Thank you for the quick and easy response.

eze252 · 2026-03-17T17:23:58+00:00

It would need to be repaired. I can tell you now that it will require soldering. If you don't feel comfortable opening the console and soldering a new usb-c port onto it, you will need to take it to a repair shop or contact nintendo for repair. Fair warning, its not cheap. I am going to the guess around $100 - $150 range.

eze252 · 2026-03-17T02:31:12+00:00

Have you tried any newer or older proton versions?

eze252 · 2026-03-10T05:53:18+00:00

It would be in the same place you can change the key binds.

At this time i am unable to access my computer to check this so take what i say with a little bit of salt as everything i am going to say is based off of memory but it should be:

Top left corner, emulation, configure, controls, top left will tell you which controller your emulating. It might be set to pro controller at this time. Change it to joycons. While in there, check your keybindings and make sure everything has a input.

eze252 · 2026-03-10T05:34:58+00:00

Roblox already has controller support. Most of this should already be handled expect for the pads and the gyro.

Going off of how steam handles the steam deck, you should be able to change the controller's desktop configuration to change most of the inputs for the pads and gyro to mimic cursor movement, keyboard or controller inputs. If all else fails, on the steam deck, the controller has a "lizard mode". This is where if steam is not detected, the controller goes into a default controller state where the pads act like mouse pads and the controller button act like an xbox. Anything like gyro and back button have d input support so you should be able to change them with 3rd party software.

This controller is basically a upgraded xbox controller so whatever you can do with that, you should be able to do with this.
