Pico W Won't Change Platform

[Gweeds9]

Pico W 2022 micro USB version does not change platforms. Stuck on OGX mode when plugging into PS3. Uploading Pico non W firmware to it works as it should, but wireless is unavailable

What controller are you trying to use on it? Currently XB1 controllers are broken so that could be why your inputs not changing.

I’ve tried this with dualsense, ds4, and 8bitdo pro 2 on 3 different pico Ws. The main branch from 2025 works properly too

[Gweeds9]

Were you able to replicate this?

[MegaCadeDev]

I have not been able to replicate this, I am able to change modes without issue. Someone else reported a problem getting out of OG Xbox mode but I cannot replicate either issue.

On 1.0.0.11a or 13? My issues were on 13, I haven't gone back and tried 11a.

Same hardware works with the original Pico W firmware fork. The non-W OGX-Mini-2026 firmware also works. The OGX-Mini-2026 Pico W build flashes successfully, LED turns on, but the adapter is completely unresponsive. This appears to be a Pico W firmware path regression rather than hardware/wiring. Wiring is GP0=D+, GP1=D-, VBUS=5V.

Im still building and repairing v13 and this issue doesnt happen for me. Are you having the issue over bluetooth or over USB?

[Gweeds9]

I'm having issues on both bluetooth and usb. Honestly it's just completely unresponsive, but the led is on. My assumption was that it was stuck in ogx mode and won't change platforms, but I'm not sure if that's the case. Could you make a build that forced ps3 mode to help troubleshoot?

You need to run flash nuke and reflash. I don't have USB A on my Pico W but I can confirm that this doesn't happen for me so I have now ay of replicating your issue.

I ran flash nuke and reflashed and I still get the issue of not being able to switch platforms. Really strange.
