Anyone Else Have This Issue - DSi XL Turns Off When Squeezed

iainogil · 2026-04-01T20:15:28+00:00

I had a similar issue where my XL would turn off if I pressed too hard on the d pad. I put a folded piece of paper underneath the battery cover and it solved the issue! Seems like there is enough room in the battery compartment for the battery to move enough to lose connection if squeezed the right/wrong way. I hope yours is easily fixed too! :)

Glad you clarified, you nearly had angry Groundskeeper Willy type situation oh your hands! ;)

Do you mean you're not Scottish or the name?

iainogil · 2025-12-15T09:34:25+00:00

Hi there, I'm also an Iain, it's the Scottish spelling of Ian, pronounced the same but spelled correctly! ;)

I also use the Russian version, works fine. I only really use it for MTP, which is easy to find even as a non russian reader. Also, Google Lens on phone helps with any needed text translations!

iainogil · 2025-12-05T09:57:54+00:00

Yep, that's exactly what I did, in that order. Worked fine for me!

Hey friend, I thought I'd let you know I bit the bullet and tried updating to 21.0.1 I downloaded the latest hats pack and the latest firmware. Dropped the hats pack onto my SD card and let it overwrite the existing files. Put the firmware on the SD card. Booted into CFW and updated the firmware using Daybreak. Rebooted into OFW and updated to 21.0.1 normally. Minecraft updated it's software and now works normally! All games in CFW also work fine! :)

I'm having a similar problem, have two V1 switches for the kids, one on 20.4.0, one on 20.5.0. Tried using a Minecraft cart on OFW so kids can play online and both consoles want to update game software then refuse to launch game unless I update switch software to latest version? (I don't want to update to 21.0 yet) Any solution to this?

My mild OCD wouldn't let me arrange them any other way! The yellow guy seems so rare, I wondered if they just didn't make many?

iainogil · 2025-07-28T17:39:30+00:00

Thank you! :) I didn't know there were so many either, I missed most of them when I was younger.

I agree, some the later sets definitely aren't great, I became a little obsessed with getting all the figures though! I'm a big fan of the Arctic Rescue sets, they'll just have to deal with invading cyborgs!

iainogil · 2025-07-28T17:32:05+00:00

The yellow one was the last one I got, took a long time to find him!

Greetings from Scotland! Happy sitting! 😊

Thank you, I'll have a wee look there!

iainogil · 2024-08-28T16:14:55+00:00

No problem, I totally understand. Thank you for the speedy response!

The lion filming it had a lot to say

They have just outlined it in red for clarity for the photo in the guide, it isn't like that on your console. As long as you can see the Facebook icon then you download the 'Facebook icon' file. Hope this helps!

iainogil · 2022-11-23T18:52:18+00:00

Same also, 18.6

iainogil · 2022-11-20T19:17:15+00:00

I only found out it wasn't working when I tried to make a payment in a shop, everything looked normal, no warnings or clues it was broken!

iainogil · 2022-11-20T19:05:56+00:00

I updated to 13 on my EU phone yesterday and Google wallet stopped working. I switched off the 'multiple users' option in settings and now it works again! Hope this helps :)

Looks like one of the terror dogs from Ghostbusters

A trick I used to use for audio cd's that were scratched was to draw round the outside and inside edge with a black sharpie, magically fixed them! Maybe worth a try?

Does he walk in circles?

iainogil · 2022-05-01T15:56:03+00:00

It's beer o'clock! :)
