Hello! I just built my Mintypi yesterday only to realize I didn't install my function button. So after taking it all a part and adding the button I can't seem to get it to actually work. I tripped checked all my soldering and connections and making sure it's all sound, I even checked the tactile button I have and it works as well. I just can't seem to get the Mintypi to see the function button. I'm at a lose here and if anyone has this issue and fixed it it would be a big help! thank you. Also I tried soldering it straight to the Pi board and same thing, nothing.
Thank you

Re: Function button
Make sure you have the gpio hole to the left of 'cs' soldered. That is meant for the function button I believe. See my picture. Red line points to the gpio I'm speaking of.

Re: Function button
Yes it was an oversight on my part that I forgot to label that point and Wermy had an image indicating the GPIO but that was also wrong so alot of confusion about it. I think it has been fixed (Wermy's image) but the golden rule here is the GPIO to the LEFT of CS is the GPIO for MODE Button.
