PS3 Tristate test pad lift up

There's no such thing as microsoldering if you just drown the shit in flux

Anyway, I insist, the needle method requires a steady hand, you lift the needle off the board and best case scenario you end up with a bad dump, worst case scenario you end up with a fried nor, board or e3. I personally find it best to just solder and then remove the cable. The edge of the board + alligator clip thing is what I used to avoid doing a second solder point but I've never fucked a pad/via even though I use a 40w unregulable soldering iron. Used the solder mask removal technique to fix several other things though such as 360 controllers, these things' analog sticks are WELDED to the board and half the time you remove one there's a 50% chance you take a pad or 2 with it
 
hey @sandungas @kadorna2 I am not a solder expert I need 7 day to solder e3 linker with motherboard and then this type of error. hey Sandungas I am tried you needle method before but not work for me I don't know why .but now I need some expert suggestion can I try to switch on motherboard using external PSU and solder bvcc and vcc wire on motherboard instead of e3 linker.I think this give motherboard enough power what are u guys thinking about?
 
I never said to handle the needle with a hand (of a human), because that would be very risky ;)
If the needle slides (and specially if the needle touches some voltage line) could cause important damages

This is why i mentioned this "tripod" structure in my previous post

This is going to keep the needle in his position firmly, because the tripod have some weight (in the blue balls i painted)
The only thing missing in the drawing is the alligator clip that should be connected to the wire

I cant give a straightforward answer sorry, i get lost with your short descriptions, to be honest i dont really know what you are doing right now

If you are trying to power the flash chip externally you should not switch on the PS3 motherboard at any point

Hey @sandungas I already mention that I on e3 flasher and PS3 motherboard using external power of 3.3v but when I start the flashing process I got this error I really don't know how to solve this error
I also mention the picture of my work you can see also
 
...I also mention the picture of my work you can see also
The photos of your work are... in the other thread
But you didnt mentioned the other thread, i just found it right now

See what i mean ?, you are not giving us much details
When you said you "switch" the PS3... i dont know if is the whole motherboard or only the flash chip
And when you mention the names of some pins... i dont know is you are talking about the pins in the E3 or the PS3 motherboard
Etc...

Try to explain things in detail, and be redundant if needed (repeating the same thing in different ways if needed)... redundancy is fine sometimes :)

Anyway, im going to reply in your other thread, i think at some point both threads could be merged, is bad for your interests to have the conversation splitted in 2 threads, the people that reads them for first time are going to miss half of the film :rolleyes:
