You're welcome, all we need is the info not a life story 🫡

You're very welcome. I'm happy I could help

It is a 25 inch screen

I currently am not taking repairs from other people yet. My main workshop is down right now due to you the last hurricane. I'm trying to get that back up and running and once I do I'll be taking in repairs again. What are you needing to be done?

Thank you for your awesome comment ! You're very welcome, I am happy I could help and focus your skills on challenging your self. Love you too !

This would for sure fix your problem. I didnt know it was caused by static. I am unsure if there is a mouse out there that does not have this issue. Majority of all mise have switches in them

@@RetroRepairYT never had this switch issue with my old deathadder I bought back in 2009, 15 years perfect run until whatever was holding the mouse wheel up broke. If I had the know how I probably could fix the wheel back in place… ps. Sorry for deleting my comment and reposting, it wasn’t using your username in chat for some reason :S

you are right the new switch N64 controller is not compatible with transfer packs

I agree, its almost to the point of hot swapping parts which its beautiful for the 'right to repair' movement. I was overjoyed when I found out how easy it was to get into the deck its still one of my fave devices

Back then it would have been so great to have

They used too when they first started and most if not all of the components where made in Japan. It feels like Quality Check doesnt exist lol

good question, it is usually 85 to 90 degrees outside. What would be your estimation on the retrobright time? I would love to try your suggestion

Sorry, you got a dud. Over the years I really do feel that their quality check department has gone downhill. Still it sucks having something working really good and then it fizzling out so quickly.

yes turn it off please or you may fry it

@@RetroRepairYT thank you very much for the reply

@@riseabove504 you're welcome

I feel that would be awesome. I always use Artic on all my PCs I bet it will work out really well for you

@@RetroRepairYT oh, I did the change but now my deck doesn't turn on, just a black screen with fan spinning 😔

@@LovelyZaia I would try to open it back up and pull the power of the battery out and let sit for like a couple mins. Then plug it back in and try to turn it on again

@@LovelyZaia Were you able to fix it?

@@l.healy31 nope, my deck is now an expensive brick 😭

Thank you so much and I am happy I can help

I mean if your talking about etiquette for use of things its in the eye of the beholder. I built PCs way back when and thats how I've always done it. As long as the system it boots with nice temps thats all the matters to me.

Thanks so much for checking it out :) I really appreciate you <3

I got you, to understand which replacement thumbsticks you need, navigate to Settings → System → Steam Deck Controller ID. If the Controller ID starts with “MEDA”, that device uses a Type A thumbstick, then this joystick is perfect for you. If the Controller ID starts with “MHDA”, that device uses a Type B thumbstick.

Thank you so much for the support, and I do understand that learning experience its a long road but very fun and rewarding. I will most def keep up the vids. I excited that I am getting back into the swing of things :) thanks again for stopping by on my stream. Have an awesome day !

I'm happy after checking out my video that it helped you gain the confidence to do it yourself. I understand that feeling of the stick drift driving you crazy. I hope it goes super smooth with you. The huge thing to remember is removing the micro SD card if you have one. I've gotten so many comments that people have been rushing through the beginning of the video and they almost break their micro SD card. I do wish you the best of luck though but if you follow my steps you'll have your steam deck ready to go in no time

@@RetroRepairYT thank you so much I watched your video 10 times. Very first time ever opening up an electronic! It was a success the new controllers work great and again can play comfortably my first person shooters. Thank you again subscribed! Went exactly as per you video and made sure had the right screwdrivers. What really helped was the point to mention what the ribbon should look like when in.

Thanks for letting me know what happened and I am happy to hear all went well and I was able to help you out on a fix that you have not preformed yourself. What you did was very key though, watching and analyzing before you try anything. You very much have a good head on your shoulders. Thanks for the sub I do appreciate it. I am happy that ribbon part help because when I originally did it I felt that specific step could be miss understood quickly if not shown properly. Overall I am so happy you could get back to what you love, the games :) thanks again for your comment and your sub have an awesome day !

@@RetroRepairYT yeah the ribbon was the most nerve wrecking but following your steps I knew I was good when it look like yours. Thanks again and look forward to maybe trying a hard rice update lol

No problem at all, I am so happy I could help and if you do the hard drive update. I swear you will wonder why you didnt do it sooner because it feels so good installing whatever you want no mater the space (withing reason) on the steam deck

I would suggest reflowing the chips around the power of the rumble. You sound like you have a cold solder joint on one of them, hopefully. If not then it could be a corroded trace or a chip may have gone bad. Chasing the issue past reflowing can be a long rabbit hole. Not to hurt your out look. Just covering all perspectives.

@@RetroRepairYT Well, I wouldn’t be taking things seriously and take all things into account, good, bad, or just time consuming. I appreciate the honest feedback, a rare thing these days 😂

No problem at all, time is the most valued thing we have, I feel if I do not point how much time unexpected amount of time could be used it would not be equipping you with the right tools to make a good decision. Thanks so much for your comment

Ikr I'm happy they finally released it 😁

Should be , from what I understand they all have the same joystick component

You're welcome, I'm happy I could help. Nice on figuring it out

This is a paramount step if not the most important

I agree 100%! They let us work on stuff like this amazing

I don't think so I think nowadays the time and date is held on a chip. But if you have access to the system menu on the switch still what you should be able to reset the time and date that way.

I'm sorry. I meant to say do you think it could erase the save data? I.e. lose all my save files on all my games.

I really do think your fine on that one. Now a days your game saves are held on a chip without a battery so they are safe. My short answer is you are good to change the battery not to worry about loosing any of your data. Also if you connect to the nintendo network with an ID you have cloud backups of your saves :)

You're welcome, happy I could help

Thanks man, I appreciate you

No problem at all and def it is getting around that time to replace the battery. I am happy I could help :) thanks for checking out my vid

Thanks man I appreciate you and your awesome comment. Thanks again so much for checking me out

That is a wonderful surprise , I am happy for you! just a cleaning needed is always the best outcome . Congrats again and thanks for checking out my video

It didnt make a huge difference but it did lower my fan sound. I take it because at that time I was running my deck non stop. summing it up, the fan was a not as loud when running on max load

I know, me too I wish they were on with their projections on making this real. I know someone out to TH-camrs to review but nothing for the main public

Yeah I can see why saying easy is a relative thing

I know, I wish they would just keep communication open cuz I know how many of us are really excited for this mod. Like just letting us know where the progress is would be amazing

Yup, it would definitely work with a standard game cube controller.

That theme is street fire! That whole theme is just motivation right there

That couldn't be more accurate

That does sound super frustrating. If you're having problems like that I suggest checking out the wiki in my description and going under the section ' Audio / Video / Powerbox Wiring Reference' It may help you if you need to run a bypass

@RetroRepairYT I give up. I basically learned that i needed flux. Kept ruining pads, it's too much for me. I ordered flux and everything should go smoother on future repair attempts.

I understand dude, yeah flux is a highly needed thing if you want to preserve pads. But you will see though that with flux the pads will attract like a magnet.

Shootz what do ya mean?​@@RetroRepairYT

That is a good question. I would have to go by speculation on this for if I knew the creators I would ask. But my speculation is. When you create a board like the kunai GC it has multiple layers in it for different traces leading to the IC or other components such as the memory on the board things like that. So if we think about that you can kind of see it in your mind as like a highway stacked on another highway with different lanes. And there could be more lanes stacked on top of those lanes. Personally I'm not sure because I do not have access to the CAD files or Gerber files. Now let's talk about the quick solder board. This specifically only has one job and it's to go from top to bottom of that board on the cascillated parts and lead out to solder pads. In the manufacturing process the machines can only do what their inputted at for a bulk production run. Which means the kunai GC is most likely made multiple at once on one consistent board and then it's cut to separate the individual kunai GCs to make it a product. So really they can't switch board layered specifications when they're making a huge PCB wafer of many kunai gcs So they would have to make another huge board of many quick soccer boards on it with those specifications of layers. Again this is only speculation but highly plausible from this thought process. And it's done like this because it's the cheapest way to manufacture in batch form. Now I know I just wrote you a book and I am sorry. But I really do hope that it made sense.

Thank you so much! I hope you have fun with that new amount of storage :)

Interesting, I would try swapping the paddles around to see if you can get it to click. If that works then that means you have use those paddles so much you have worn them down. And I would recommend getting a new set of paddles if that works

Bro I fixed it by putting a piece of paper on the button outside in the back and now I can feel the click

Thanks for the input, I'll be louder in my next video

Thank so much and thanks for the info. I will definitely keep that in mind on my next restoration

This is a true statement, idk why I wasted so much time messing with the board
