Do you have an actual link to this screen ? Would it work in a Gameboy Pocket by any chance ?

[@JuicyJakeRepairs]

@@RBKing80 i normally use AliExpress, something along the lines of 2.2 inch GBC LCD

[@TXFDA]

@@JuicyJakeRepairs Not to be rude, I don't intend to be, but you made a video about a very specific product. A little more than "just search this semi-vague search string on AliExpress and hope you find the right thing" would be nice. Maybe a link to where you bought yours? Maybe a more specific name to search for to find this exact one...

[@FatFinn-3110]

@@TXFDA If you search AliExpress using the product name he gave you will see countless sellers selling this exact same kit, it does not matter from what seller you get it from, since all are selling the same just as a rule of thumb, if you never bought anything from AliExpress I will advice to try to stick with seller who have lots of reviews and good reputation, just to be on the safe side. Hope that helped ya, cheers!

Where u get it

[@IWario1]

What is the name of this replacement ?

[@VinnytotheK]

Thank you so much for this video! Finally got around to doing this mod, and your video is the first one that came up when I looked up a tutorial. Made the mod so easy

[@metalgamer31]

That's actually a TFT LCD screen not an IPS screen. The IPS is long and rectangular and you need to do some shell cutting with an IPS screen.

[@BlakeKane]

Don't worry man youtube is full of people calling maintenance and replacing parts "restoring" and repairing. Never seen someone converting gb display output to ips output. All schematics are online and those screen kits are x5 more expensive than recreating the converting circuit yourself. Those tft lcd screens are around 10 dollars each actually

[@metalgamer31]

@@BlakeKane I've seen SO many other videos of people calling the TFT LCD an IPS screen I can tell the difference because my first screen was a TFT LCD. I got it from Retro Modding and when I bought it the price of it was $52.99 (Canadian) it was even expensive on Ebay as well around the same price to about $60 something so I wish it was around $10 something lol.

[@BlakeKane]

@@metalgamer31 I am currently working on a convertor when i finish it i will be replacing gameboy screens for 10-13 dolar price range :P i got ton of working gameboys w/o screens its the most delicate part sadly. Planning to put up a video about it after simplifying it. İ am using all Arduino and rasp.pi parts so its very cheap and easy to find. After this project is finished i will start working on cpu with modern smds

[@muneebelyaman5303]

@@BlakeKane you are an absolute fucking legend. I’d like to know about the schematics ur talking about, could you lmk where I can find all this stuff you’re talking about?

[@gamingstoner0061]

So I installed the kit but now I hear a static noise when I turn it on, sometimes the music from the games drowns it out but sometimes it’s just loud and kills the music, is it the new screen?

[@Krz3613]

Does anyone know where I can get on of these because he doesn’t say it in the video and I need a drop in kit bc I don’t know how to solder or anything like that

[@kaisgamesandthings]

AliExpress

[@bradyellison7230]

what's the name of the kit? Or did I miss it in the video?

[@Cyber_Horse_Studios87]

I actually use this screen in my modded GBC and I honestly recommend it if you don’t wanna spend to much money or solder anything. It works well. And while it isn’t an IPS display, it looks pretty good on its own! It does have some light bleed issues on the side, but that can be fairly easily fixed with some thin strips of black electrical tape.

[@BlackAxe101]

Link?

[@curtneedsaride]

@@BlackAxe101 I got mine from a random seller on eBay. There are a bunch of them. No idea what company made it.

[@YY-fs7wk]

I have version 5. Why is the touch sensor moved to the other side? will it still work?

[@hasturprynne]

I tried to post a link but my comment got deleted or something because I can’t find it now. But I found one on ebay with the title “Nintendo Game Boy Color GBC Console High Light Backlight LCD Screen Kit 8 Colors” that looks identical to the one in the video. Hope this helps!

[@DerrickMcDanielLucky1391]

Here me out. I have an old silver pokemon game boy color with the pikachu and pichu on them. I don't wanna fully replace the shells but I do wanna try to add some stiff like led yellow buttons and dials to really give it a pikachu feel. What would I need to start up the project especially if I wanted to fit a nice led screen

[@FadedTyrael1987]

Hey! Thank you so much for the walkthrough! Got mine installed!

[@ikeavaughan]

I got the kit but you can still see the white border of the new ips even with the new face plate

[@YY-fs7wk]

Does anyone know if you need a game in the gameboy to test it? my screen doesnt even look color when i turn it on without a game in there and the sensor doesnt adjust the levels of brightness

[@ninjanicholas2459]

What do you do when you accidentally strip some screws?

[@JuicyJakeRepairs]

depends how stripped they are, sometimes you can use a bigger screwdriver or worst case drill it out

it's a TFT LCD screen you can get it on AliExpress or other modding websites such as Retro Modding or Funny Playing

[@eliseotorres3168]

Hi, JuicyJakeRepairs. I know i was late to the party to post my comment here! lol. Anyway, I love your new method of install IPS LCD Screen on the original motherboard inside a Gameboy Color system. So, I wanna ask you a question. I am currently own Gameboy DMG and I tried to look a different avenues on how to order correct IPS LCD Screen and other parts in order to install on original motherboard of the Gameboy DMG. I just want to replace from green LCD Screen to Full color IPS LCD Screen itself only, that why i like what you are doing with the Gameboy Color. But I prefer to keep original motherboards without have to pay an third-party modified motherboard in order to running IPS LCD Screen in the Gameboy DMG system. Any advices and new parts recommends would be very helpful. Thanks!

[@Breakbeats92.5]

Just got a clear purple GBC in a trade yesterday. Got a replacement shell on the way. I will use your affiliate link for this ips kit if provided.

[@monsterstorm78]

where can we buy them parts ?

[@never2old882]

Hallo. I got the same screen and installed it. But now my GBC wont start. Just the Red Light turns on for a second. When i connect the original screen it works fine again. I have also installed a rechargable battery. Maybe it dont works with the IPS screen. Hope someone can help me.

[@ZschaberGustavoC]

Thanks! helped me a ton!

[@PoIiwag]

what is this kit called

[@metalgamer31]

it is a TFT LCD screen not an IPS like it says in the title

[@karstenjeremy]

I actually have this exact same kit but once its all installed my pokemon silver game won't save for some reason. The internal battery is still fine and still saves on my regular SP and Pocket but not on the gbc with this mod. Any ideas what the problem might be?

[@elatee]

did you ever solve this?

[@bennyamv7418]

Do you have to trim the pins on mother boards for these types of ips?

[@curtneedsaride]

I didn’t have to. Mine dropped it and fit no problem.

[@stayredeyed]

No

[@segagirladventurespico]

Hi i followed your video the only thing is mine doesnt say gameboy when i turn it on :( and it doesnt read the cartridge what do u think i did wrong!!

[@JuicyJakeRepairs]

thats strange.. i saw the video you sent, the screen lights up. I would try connecting the old screen back in to see if the gameboy itself was damaged. If it works with the old screen then you know its something to do with the IPS kit. Reconnect it again, making sure all cables are in properly, if it doesnt work after this then you probably have a faulty kit

[@ikeavaughan]

Where does the touch sensor go on v5?

[@mmm-xc8zk]

Did you ever solve this? I bought this and got the V5 - and it seems like its just the wrong way around, no matter how i twist it. It doesn't fit to the position of the touch sensor. Already wrote to the seller but I have little hope

[@ikeavaughan]

​​@@mmm-xc8zk i did so it turns out the one i had went the opposite side of the gameboy or left side top (while looking directly at the screen) as opposed to the top right side where the ir lens goes Mine didnt have an adhesive i just tucked it into the left top and closed the shell and it works when i tap where it is

[@mmm-xc8zk]

@@ikeavaughan Wow thanks so much for replying! I had only slim hopes on a 2 year old comment lol. So you're saying it will work tapping the sensor through the plastic shell? Will try that

[@insidethebubble6625]

fantastic video, ty so much

[@Kunio]

If the power switch takes too much pressure to turn on, is that a fault on the shell I got (not the same shell as what you have) or would that be the ips kit?

[@K4R0M11]

i believe that its actually a problem with your gameboy

[@curtneedsaride]

I wanted to mod my old GBC to have a Pokémon lens on top and I went with this size screen. It was a perfect first mod for me and turned out great. I’m planning on doing a second Pokémon themed one and probably going to use the same screen since I want the classic Pokémon lens around it again.
