It changed from Blue to purple in 1 seconds, what is the purple light indicate? It wont boot to green led
SX Core soldered, the led went from blue to purple almost instantly

Really weird problem that I ran into as well. How I fixed it was I placed everything back together and noticed that if I push the board holding the nand against the heat shield, it would turn green. So i just reassembled everything and used the squeeze of the case to hold it down and its been fine ever since. Really weird but maybe give it a try.It changed from Blue to purple in 1 seconds, what is the purple light indicate? It wont boot to green led
Thanks for the suggestion, tried and is not working for me
I guess the soldering joint is connected, getting 42.4 ohm resistance on both SP! and SP2 using multimeter
Which solder typ did you use? Soldering does not look good. Did you use flux too?
Seems cheap quality solder. For this type of soldering on smd I would recommend high quality 60/40 leaded solders.

I am using just some cheap rosin core soldering iron and yeap i did apply flux quite a lot.
I thought that as far as I getting reading on multimeter means it is good, do I need to change my solder iron?
Get a solder tin with diameter 0,8mm or less with sn60pb40. Use no-clean flux for electronics.
If you have a multimeter, does it have a continuity test feature? If yes try to test the continuity.
If you have cheap solder tin, its probably not rosin core or leaded solder.

Will try to get other soldering tin to try on,
Meanwhile, the continuity test reading is 041 with a beep sound for both SP1 and SP2 soldering joints, is it a good reading?
Just a couple of extra points to consider:
- Your V1 PCB is not grounded beneath the CPU shield frame.
- Thos soldering as mentioned by others looks a bit rough
- You network chip is missing it's shield (probably still attached to the nand chip
Can you confirm if you have actually connected the nand chip to the mod kit?

The alignment of the flex cable is not right/ along with the solder connections. There really should not be any flexing/ the cable should lay flat.
