Nice short video! Thanks for your help!! I just saw a 3. Point named COM on my ribbon cable… Do you know what this is for?
Where can I find a extra touch sensor like the video?
Is it possible to destroy an input beyond repair by damaging the test point on a button. I may have touched the iron to one ever so slightly too long and now a button won't work.
What temperature are you using for your soldering iron?
Awesome guide Thanks
Thank you for the video; it was perfect, except for the part at 1:01 where you removed the plastic protecting the screen before completing the installation. No need to rush bro that's the best part when you finish it all.
Once kit is installed, could the screen be removed from shell?
Funny playing shell ..
Turns out it didn't come out the way I hoped.
Yeah no those wires are like trying to cut a freaking bomb from God dam die hard movie bro lol
What shell are you using?
I got a modded GBC modded console second hand for a good price but its not a nicely done job by the modder, he have fitted this funnyplaying screen in a retrosix shell and because of that been forced to modify that shell and it looks really cheap, do you think it would be possible to remove the screen with all the adhesive (like with a heatgun, I have one) and put it back into another proper funnyplaying shell?
..and also thanks for this video, it's truly awesome!!!
thanks
Info on the shell?? Would another shell have to be cut for this to work? That info helps
I've gone through 2 of these screens and both of them will not work. The 2nd time I went into the mod even more carefully than I (thought) I did before, and tested it before removing the screen from the ribbon cable, and it worked fine. I follow the video directions to the letter, put everything back together, screen will not respond at all just like the first. I feel like the issue(s) arise right after you're advised to disconnect the screen from the ribbon in order to seat it into the case. I'm really disappointed–I had no problem modding other handheld systems with parts from Handheld, but GBC modding has been so unforgiving for me 🙁
As a general rule of thumb, be sure to test your display before soldering/fully inserting it into the shell! If you have a faulty display, it cannot be returned once the full installation has begun.
Your video was amazing!!! It really helped me out on how to do it step by step. Thank you again
Touch sensor completely stopped working on mine. Doesn't even work outside of the shell. Can anyone help? I can't do micro soldering.
How does this work in collaboration with retrosix button LEDs? As this also use the start and select buttons to change brightness. Also in terms of contact points for soldering?
Soldering the wires adds benefits ?, as I have access to the menu via the top IR button.
What exactly happens if I don’t solder the 3 wires
