The 3.3V point and the SX point are completely different. You need to solder the thicker of the wire you use on the ground and 3.3v locations. SX requires regular mod wire used for the rest of the points.

NO! Do not solder these together. All the wires go from their points to the modchip. Do not cross connect anything.

Again, use heavy wire for ground and 3.3v(make sure the chip is as close to these connections as possible. Make them short)

You can add a little solder yes. Don't glop it on though.


Take your time! This is your first mod and your bound to have problems. Post back when or if you do :)

Oh, and remember the 2 second rule. Try not to hold the solding gun (15watt) on the board for more then 2 seconds at a time.
