What's the issue with it?

I'm sure Xecuter products are backed by a 90 day warranty - this is assuming you haven't already attempted to fit it because that voids your warranty straight away.

You cannot return it now because you have attempted to install it.

If you post some images of your soldering, I'm sure somebody can assist you.

Would you like the thread title changing?

Your soldering looks ok from what I saw in two pictures, it says "improper soldering" his looks good to me and also what if it comes defective after testing it, say the console does not boot?

I see poor alignment of the DATA points on the Demon

I see several dry solder joints

Shoddy soldering on most of the other points

Weak CR install

Did you test Demon before install ? That's an essential step in the process.

Have you tried to uninstall everything (use lots of flux and good leaded solder to free up the joints - you can clean up with braid / isopropyl after)

Best to do that and start from the beginning.

Its easy to send to someone to fix - but its sweeter to do it yourself :)
