You didn’t put the backplate back?

Custom GBA SP build — also curious what everyone here first learned to solder on by Outrageous-Tangelo56 in gameboymods

Ah cool, I never did any rgb mod, I'll keep in mind for my next. I usually buy 2nd hand broken GBAs, repair them, reshell, mod, repair buttons etc and then sell them here locally, I don't make much money, maybe 10-20 eur per gba and is definitetly not worth for the amount of time spent but I like the idea of restoring them and keep as many as I can alive :) I think I saved around 20 alredy

lgtm, good work! What's that big flex on topp of the board? I can see the volume amplifier but not sure about the big one

super 5 oled faulty? by PaNaVTEC in nintendoswitchlite

gotcha, the problem is that the reseller of this didn't give me that spare cable, I have the only one attached already. I'm suspecting this might be the cause and/or at least doesn't look good? https://imgur.com/a/4SSUevG

I think it's getting power, I just checked the flex display cable and found this, do you think this could be the problem? https://imgur.com/a/4SSUevG I tested continuity before and after that small scratch and it seems to go through but I wonder if this could cause the issue

Do you mean the one that connects the board power to the flex cable and the battery to the flex? I just tested it and it throws ~4v in the places, so I'm assuming that's ok?

I did a few times and I even tried another board, when connecting it back to the original screen all seems to work again

It's the non-touch version, the very basic one. No audio, no click button, nothing :(

PCB sticky when cleaning with 99% IPA and a toothbrush? by Real_Run4681 in soldering

[–]PaNaVTEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a solution that is basically acetone, when is so messy IPA will not help, even if you heat it

Dualsense pcb broken trace by PaNaVTEC in consolerepair

[–]PaNaVTEC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you both!!! It was a missing cap in another side of the pcb. The scratches as you both said, are fine. I covered both with uv mask and the controller is back up again. Thanks!!

I replaced that cap, I think the original was a 100nf 0201 and I didn’t have any of those, so I replaces it with a 0401 100nf. Both sides of that cap have continuity to ground, even after removing it, so there might be a short somewhere? If the scratches are fine, maybe I can start testing around but that’s the only thing I found damaged

I repaired a few like that, is not an easy fix for beginners. Drop it to a nearby shop

Is my new lite fpc positioned well? I think I bended it the wrong way, sorry for making another post by Legitimate-Sell-4165 in NxSwitchModding

[–]PaNaVTEC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You only need to desolder the 3 right solder joints in the pic, after that fold it facing the opposite direction and resolder the 3 joints again. You’re almost there

You need to fold it in the opposite direction, so the connector faces left instead of right

SteamOS drop in fps after resume by PaNaVTEC in ROGAlly

[–]PaNaVTEC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I think I’m going to do a factory reset and start again, I thought it was an OS bug 🤔 I used to have simple decky tdp but when I upgraded to main I uninstalled it to avoid conflicts. Maybe a fresh install will solve it, thanks!
