So, I have tried using the buttons directly on the PCB Board, And it did not work. I was using older software because I thought that it could be a newer software bug, this doesn't seem to be the case. Is it possible that using a rspberypi0 instead of a rspberypi0W would make a difference? I have tri...

can you make a kit of some sort?

why not just flip the switch before it gets the chance to reboot? Also, I would try running the battery completely dry, then letting it charge for a few hours, then try again. It may not help, but that first one is a solid go-to

I just finished checking continuity again, and turns out the 'mode' GPIO wasn't connecting , fixed it and it's still not working , I am using a pi zero (not W), would that change anything?

yes, I have considered that it could be a continuity issue, and that would have made perfect sense, however, I have checked continuity straight from the pi to the PCB board (touchpads) and everything has continuity. And as an extra I have resoldered everything relating to the buttons, and still nott...

Well, I tried taking the speaker off entirely (it wasn't working anyway) and resoldered the entirety of the PCB-PiZero connections, and it still wouldn't work. I have another pi that I put emulationstation/retropie on and the first time I booted it up it asked me to configure my controller. The Mint...

So I should resolder the board, get as much solder off the back of the speaker as I can, and then see if it works?

I have just finished building my mintypi's innards (screen, buttons, etc.) and finally finished troubleshooting the software :roll: , so now I'm putting games on it and etc. to test it all out, only to find that the buttons are not working in exception of the right D-pad button and the start/select ...
