Didnât that cause an issue for gummo? I donât know if I read right, but I think he used it wirelessly and had it disconnect his internet due to the way it bypasses the resistors
As Gummo pointed out the top board is essential but the components are not very elaborate except for two of them. Iâm not saying itâs a matter of just getting the connectors, but with a little ingenuity, it really shouldnât be that hard to make a harness for this, even if we had to do a little sub board adapter.
sorry guys, i went to the thread and didnt read any clear information.
is it confirmed that a wireless pad connected with the play and charge kit is a wired pad???
Yup. No syncing issues, no batteries required, no IR blaster required
Note though, if you plug it into something else, the pad gets power and home signal is activated it will connect wirelessly.
If you added a sub board with resistors you may not even need the top board anymore.
Or maybe you could make a harness that bridges the gap between the boards like a passthrough (bottom board>connector>harness>another connector>top board)
Thanks for clearing that up. Just for future reference, you figured out the button connection by measuring continuity between the button connection and what? Itâs hard to see in the pic if youâre right on top of the usb, or on one of the pins that connect to it.
So when u measure from usb connector ground to any ground on the pcb u have a closed circuit, and usb connector ground to anything that isnât ground will show open on the meter?
Wow, radio shack aint what it used to be anymore. thought theyâd have a solder sucker/pump.
Is removing the cube the only simple option to disable it?
Take pliers and clip off the grey plastic analog controller stick, thatâs what i did. I think removing parts you donât have to remove just risks ruining the pcb more than you have to. I plugged in my seimeitsu to my padhacked shiv TE last night and the heavy p and k buttons werenât working. Turns out the analog sticks were being pressed in opposite directions. So i clipped them off with clippers and left the cubes alone. No issues at all now.
On another note, has any been brave enough to start trying resistors on the triggers yet?
This is exactly what I will be undertaking. I donât suppose you have any pictures or could enlighten me on how to go about this. If I was just tossing this pad into a stick on its own itâd be no problem, however working with 3 PCbâs has me a little uncertain. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
so for those quite not up to the task of doing this themselves , anybody on the east coast provide this service for a fee ( & if your near orlando, for a fee and a beer?. lol)
Hello, I hope this isnât too much to ask, but is it possible for someone to post a visual solder point guideline image of the pcbâs, just like the âtop board undersideâ image ? Thanks
