@MyRegardsToTheDodo6 жыл бұрын
Actually, the 3DS is worse, switching the upper screen or fixing a broken hinge on it is maybe one of the worst things to do. Fixing a broken hinge on an old NDS or GBA SP is way easier, because you can actually take the upper part apart, on the 3DS you have to cram the ribbon cables through the right hinge and hope they don't break while doing so. There are tons of broken 3DS (first gen, XL, N3DS) with broken hinges or just broken ribbon cables. If you find one on ebay that "doesn't turn on anymore" or "just gives out a klicking sound" it means the ribbon cable is broken 99% of the time. That said, I have an old NDS around here that maybe needs a new top part of the upper shell, because that one is really scratched (the silver paint has actually been rubbed off of it in some parts), but the hinges are fine. It used to have a dead pixel on the touch screen (which isn't scratched at all), but that seems to have fixed itself. I got it a few years back from an easter egg hunt done by some reseller on his website.

You have to flash a v5 ds with flashme v7 and it gives it 4 brightness levels. ds lite is v5 also so when you flash a normal ds v5 with flashme it thinks its a ds lite.
@Rick_Todd6 жыл бұрын
Here goes. The DS has had a few different versions of firmware in it, this can be checked with the pictochat test. People that have v5 firmware in their DS (note not V5 flashme, v5 firmware) may have had a chip in it that was used in the lite. This chip being there means you can install a version of flashme and gain the variable brightness levels on a normal DS. Onto the flashme part. V7 flashme breakdown. First there was V7 original, this was not able to take advantage of the variable light levels of the DSlite. A beta release was err released which enabled this variable light levels to work on the lite. Lastly the beta version and the original version were bundled together with some detection code to get the current version of flashme, confusingly for some this was also called version 7. In conclusion: You will need to have a DS that has V5 firmware, no DS with a lower firmware version has the chip required. I do not know if all DS' with v5 firmware had this chip but it seems likely. You will need the very latest version of flashme (you can force the beta but I do not advise it) and when you try and run it the chip, if you have it, will be detected and the version that allows variable light levels will be installed. You now will have variable light levels.

The reason most of them don’t turn on, is because the DS system performs a system check before turning on, so if one of the screens is disconnected or smashed, it won’t turn on. People make Game Boy Macro systems by removing the top screen assembly and soldering a resistor to trick the system into rebooting. They then switch the GBA screen to the bottom and play GBA games.

My DS came from the factory with a broken touch screen, the right side of the screen works perfectly but as you move left it'll get increasingly more out of sync.

What you have with that one DS is most likely factory error and you will never be able to correctly calibrate it.

Also if they won't turn on and the charge light goes on and off open it up, remove the battery, clean the connectors with rubbing alcohol and put it back in. Then connect and disconnect the charger until the charge light stays on as it will jump the battery. Then after it turns on let it charge.

That's kind of the downside to these newer hand-held units. The tech behind them gets more and more sophisticated but the durability is no longer there. I still have my original gray GameBoy from when I was a kid and it still works. Even after being forgotten in a box in a shed for who knows how many years. Ya, it doesn't work 100%, but the screen works enough to show that it turns on and boots a game. But it has no sound. When I can eventually get a set of security bits that has the two tri-wing bits I'll take it apart and fiddle with it. I probably won't ever play it again, but I'm happy that I still have it and that it does work to some extent. :)

Is it possible to adapt ds lite screens to a phat? Cause the phats have garbage quality screens.
@lemonlolxd6 жыл бұрын
arent there some models of the phat with screens similar to the lite? I have a broken one my uncle gave me (top screen discolored, broken hinge) and the screens are nice and bright, and look just like the lite screens.

I repaired mi DS fat (conector, fuse f1 and battery), a DS lite (upper screen, botton screen, digitalizer, F1 fuse and P6 conector ) and a DSi XL (battery, Charge motherboard's pins on the motherboard, corrosion clean and looking for the motherboard problems...). The DS fat its the most strongest, easiest and cheapest DS console ever made. Nothing more to say. Greetings from spain!

I don’t know why but I have this really vivid memory of playing mario kart DS on my 3ds on my way to pick up my mum on a Wednesday

I got a silver DS for my birthday 2012 and I loved it like a baby.until I accidentally dropped it in the water and I was devistated. It still turned on and what not but it didn't read the Cartridges.I got a New Nintendo 3DS XL. It was awesome and I could play with my cousins. But I would never forget my DS.

Get a ds lite if you don't want the hinge problem Actually scratch that I had a ds lite and the hinge broke for no reason lol and it caused dead pixels on my screen so my mum bought me a new one *2 years later when the 3ds came out*

Thank you for the video, I love these refurbs. I recently got a DS, and it seems to work fine, except every once in a while after turning it on it will ask me to re enter my nickname, and birthday, but the date is still saved. Any ideas what could be the issue? Thank you.

What would we have to do to get the busted ones? having trouble finding a lot like that, any tips on finding them would be very much appreciated.

Why not vinyl wrap the cracked one on the upper shell? If you do it right, no one will be the wiser and it will be a strong repair too.
