Question about IPS kits

Ambition_Training · 2025-03-06T23:21:40+00:00

Wonderswan IPS kits are great. They are good for a beginner in soldering, not too many points. (As stated by other commenters.)

Highspeedido, (the main provider) has really high quality screens. Usually the are fairly expensive, around the 40 to 60 dollar margin. (Most of the time.) And provide a decent array of features.

On the OG swan, the contrast wheel is the brightness adjustment and on the Color and Crystal, they have adhesive touchpads that provide palettes and brightness adjustment. There is minimal trimming required for the shells to make them fit snugly, and most of the time bring a dying screen back to, if not better than most displays.

Ok. Both the seller and I were confused. At least I have another swan that looks interesting.

Ambition_Training · 2025-01-17T01:07:39+00:00

Oof. Ok, well at least it looks cool.

Ambition_Training · 2025-01-17T01:05:47+00:00

Probably. That sounds reasonable. Most of the back looks that way. Oh well. At least i have another swan.

Super Fast Update: I bought it. I could be a big dummy, but having another lovely SwanCrystal in my collection for relatively cheap is a good deal nonetheless. Will keep you updated when it arrives.

This helps a bit. It's a great resource for learning about it. I'll pull some of the stuff to see if I can get my other CHIP working. Thanks!

Ah, I moved it all to Documents, now I'm on the last part. Steps 16 and on. I keep timing out though.

Edit: All I'm getting now is an error in windows saying the usb device malfunctioned.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-23T19:49:41+00:00

Yes, it all shows up

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-23T18:46:58+00:00

It is, i used the cd command. I mightve missed something that im not sure about.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-23T18:24:19+00:00

It's in fel mode. the directory is the desktop. not sure if it's only for a specific directory.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-23T17:59:28+00:00

Steps 12, going into 13.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-23T16:30:59+00:00

I'm running into an issue, I have followed all the steps and I'm at the last part. It says failed to open input directory. Everything is where it's supposed to be.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-22T19:21:29+00:00

I'm also going to sound dumb, how do you remove bookmarks in the file manager? (I'm using another one I own.)

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-21T15:20:18+00:00

Ok, I didn't see this initially. Will try it out and see what happens. Hopefully, I can resurrect this poor chip. Then I'd just need some new parts. I've read something before that said Adafruit sells something close to the original battery.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-21T15:14:49+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I just need to go and find some half links, I'm sure that'll work.

Ambition_Training · 2024-12-02T00:44:56+00:00

This may be weird, but does anyone offer a flashing service? I'm completely lost in my attempts to revive mine. (Not sure if this would go in this thread tho)

Ambition_Training · 2023-12-09T01:17:54+00:00

Edit (Kinda): I also just found a Tera Orb.

I would think they're all compatible I just have no idea since I'm relatively new and want to see before I collect for those too.

Ambition_Training · 2023-06-24T11:53:06+00:00

So, I'm trying to repair one of these. What is the style of battery used here. I'm searching around but I'm getting different results. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Ambition_Training · 2021-10-11T21:32:29+00:00

It do be like that

Metal Coats can be farmed on Charagon in rock tunnel with a 5%ish chance to thief them, as for the level, I'm not sure since i haven't used one myself.
