nice!nano > nice!view issues
Hello! I just recently received my nice!view order (hooray for the recent restock!) and I've having some issues. I am using EZ-Swap headers with both the nice!view and the nice!nano, and encounter the following behavior. The left board will not display correctly. The behavior swaps between showing static, and then nothing to showing the layer/KPM/BT connection screen, but the screen seems to corrupt and behave erratically. I have tested by swapping the nice nanos between boards, and swapping both of my nice views as well. I think I have it narrowed down to the left nice!nano, and I am curious if a shoddy soldering job on some of the pins could be culprit? I have been using the keyboard as my daily driver (without displays) for about 3 months with zero issues until now.
In summary:
I have verified that both screens seem to be behaving correctly by swapping them between boards and observing them work on the right board but not the left. I have also verified that the connection between the keyboard PCB and the nano headers on both boards seems to be working, verified by swapping the boards/PCBs and observing that the views work on the "right" nano.
Which pins of the nice nano correspond to the pins on the nice view, so I can make sure those soldering connections are correct?

That's my best guess at this point too, but good to hear that I'm not crazy lol. Is there any documentation on which of the pins on the nano are linked to the view? I looked at the pinouts and schematics but I'm not an electrical engineer lol so they went over my head

ah, I didn't think about that. Awesome, I will make sure that those pins in particular have solid connections
yeah, pin 25 was one that I had marked as being possibly flaky
Great, thank you so much, really appreciate it. Will post back here after I get a chance to touch up those the solder job
Posting back for posterity, this was precisely the issue! Screen seems to be working great now
Thanks again for the help! Really appreciate the fast responses too.
