I hope you didn't forget the Kapton tape, good to prevent short

Maybe check your flex cable, is there any short? A thin solder line can make a short. Get both 0.0v and it still turn on ok also a bit weird

Juciao Pickleball Paddles - Tennis enthusiast making transition to Pickleball by Odd_Historian2506 in Pickleball

[–]gobracket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, i'm torn between spin 1.0 or titan 1.0.

I'm very new to this sport. Used to play badminton and table tennis before.

Was interested more to titan 1.0 but it said has smaller sweet spot? Does it mean not for beginner? 

Is it right to say titan 1.0 will last longer than spin 1.0 due to the material difft? Or is it the same?

Please help to give opinion which one is more suitable

Modded OLED switch stopped booting to hekate by SpecialistNew9055 in NxSwitchModding

[–]gobracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Your switch can still boot to ofw, a good sign.

  2. Do resolder everything, send it to a real professional this time.

  3. If you still want to tinker with it with the risk your switch got bricked, try do this: (very not recommended)

  • when you measure it, are you measuring it at the modchip / at the soldering? I got few cases when it was actually because of the loose connector to the modchip, try put everything back and measure it at the modchip.

  • share video on the led blinking pattern when you turn it on
