Comment on Here's how I fixed my Steam Deck when it stopped turning on.

Huh, is that a new shortcut, or did they get confused about the UEFI reset shortcut:
Hold down Volume Down+Power+⋯ (“Three Dots” button under the right touchpad) to reset the UEFI settings to their defaults (keep the two buttons other than Power held after the first blink of the LED: the LED will blink during the operation and stop once done, then release the buttons).
I’ve never heard of volume up+… as a functional shortcut before.
In the video he has no idea what combination of buttons actually worked. I feel dumber for watching the video.
He got it in the end though. I quoted the portion thay worked.
It worked for him. 🤷♂️
He said it was the quick access button (QAM), which is the “. . .” button, not the select button. You can also see him pressing it in the video with his right thumb.
Oh, I see it now. My bad. I missed him specifically showing that early in the video and later it looked like his left thumb was being used instead, but it’s not.
I even remember looking at my own Steam Deck to see the icon on the “select” button, and it didn’t ring a bell being called the quick access button. (Because it’s not.)
In addition, I mixed up my looking at the button with him zooming in on that button in the video. I would have sworn he did that, and I was about to go take a screenshot of it, but he didn’t. Stupid brain.

I don’t want anyone to suffer I just didn’t watch the video. Thanks for taking the hit, that’s a true service.

God forbid people “suffer” by watching a completely voluntary video of someone trying to help others. Look, I didn’t watch the video, but no matter how long it was it’s got supposedly helpful information in it and we should be thankful someone’s taking the time to post at all.
It’s not their job to put it in a format you like, just move on and don’t be an entitled ass about it. I’m sure your parents taught you if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all.
