Re: My first (successful) GBZ Build

For bbbsupport: https://i.imgur.com/JiU54bZ.png Cut the pegs off. I guess he was simulating the ones that are in the actual case and forgot to remove them before exporting the STL. https://i.imgur.com/mFkWg4l.png I had to cut that middle part out so that the wires had somewhere to go. I also got th...

Re: MintyPi V3 Won't Shutdown

The shutdown script uses GPIO 22 (pin 15) to shut down the system. It is labeled "HAL" on the test pads. I would try reflowing that pin.

Re: Collective V3 issues and how to fix them

Try reflowing these 4 tiny holes on the back of that board. I would not add extra solder unless you cover the nearby holes with something like kapton tape to prevent bridging. The inner 2 of the 4 are the 5v (red circles) and the outer 2 (black circles) along with the 4 big ones are ground https://i...

Re: Collective V3 issues and how to fix them

In Helder's post a couple back, he has an image where you can see if there is power coming from the USB connector. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/197017091352690688/560197258566696960/Power_Board_Volatges.jpg I generally use the outside of the USB connector itself as ground as it is the ea...

Re: Collective V3 issues and how to fix them

Reverse the cables when you do the continuity testing for a true test. The LED comes on because the multimeter is essentially powering it. R2 on the power board looks bridged to me also. Clear that and try moving the wire (between the LED and U1 chip) up from the pins a little and see what happens. ...

Re: Minty Pi 2.0 Screen to PCB Help

4 words: Flux is your friend. To me, it looks like a bunch of them are very very close to being bridged. It should look more along the lines of https://i.imgur.com/sBnDn3M.jpg Getting a flux pen would help greatly as it basically sucks the solder to the pad and on to the ribbon cable. When taking th...

Re: Loading games on MintyPi

Re: Loading games on MintyPi

I am starting to think that there is something messing up when the supplicant is getting transferred because I just had one do what you and someone else is describing. There is a new image in the works so we might have to wait for that to be released to see if things are fixed.
