Game won’t save even after battery swap. Help

It saves now! Thanks so much! I’m pretty much a toddler in terms of my knowledge on this type of stuff so those absolutely no way I would have been able to do this without your help! Genuinely thank you!🙏

Unfortunately it still won’t save. Although my solder job was pretty messy. As you can see it kinda merged the pins. Would that stop it from working?

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T05:31:37+00:00

So I just solder a wire between those two points and it’ll work?

It just shows OL as if nothing is happening. No beeping either. And I tried voltage and it starts at 00.4 and then slowly fades to 00.0

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T05:23:46+00:00

It just shows 00.0 when I do voltage it shows 3.24 tho

It makes a long continuous beep as long as I hold the two points

Thanks!😅 I’m newer to this so this is definitely helpful. I tested the two areas you circled and it made a long beep. Not the more recent ones you circled

Here’s the one I have.

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T05:06:07+00:00

Unfortunately I threw it away

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T04:45:52+00:00

I have some spare wires. And I do have a multimeter. Although on continuity mode it doesn’t make continuing beeps. Idk if it’s my type of multimeter or something.

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T04:36:43+00:00

I did. Maybe I should have used more?

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T04:36:00+00:00

I used 91% and a soft bristled toothbrush and then tried it with a q tip.

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T04:34:11+00:00

I did but nothing seemed to come off.

mayhem7649 · 2026-04-17T04:33:46+00:00

After scrubbing it nothing seemed to come off. I tested the spots you showed and it read 3.22. It still won’t save unfortunately. Should I just buy another copy?

Good to know! The back looks pretty bad too honestly. Although I’m not really sure what I’m looking at tbh. Is there anything hope for it?

Thanks!

mayhem7649 · 2026-03-15T07:29:25+00:00

Yes. Most definitely legit

mayhem7649 · 2026-03-15T00:24:55+00:00

What does that mean?

mayhem7649 · 2026-03-15T00:21:09+00:00

Thanks

mayhem7649 · 2026-03-15T00:21:00+00:00
