    Hardware DS Lite Touch Screen Issue with Held Inputs

    This is fairly common and caused by someone being heavy handed with the stylus or a cheap replacement touch screen has been fitted, A lot of the cheap screens have 'no bounce' meaning if you gently tap them with the stylus they just sound hollow in some areas and those are the areas that end up...

    Homebrew How would you feel about music albums on the Nintendo DS?

    I'm all for modifications and the like but I don't think I would enjoy watching a music video on a DS as most people have a phone with a bigger screen than the DS and the screens on the phone are of a much better quality, It would seem like wasting the life span of the screen and battery for...

    Corners of DSi screen are white

    First of all check it with another game. If it is still the same, you will need a new screen. Though if the screen doesn't have any dead pixels, I would suggest putting up with it as replacement screens are not of the same sharp quality. Causes for this are usually either: Console is well...

    Some regions of the touchscreen are imprecise on a DS Lite

    I would just replace the touch screen. If it isn't calibrating correctly then it's faulty, replacing it gives you the comfort of knowing it is going to last. Some people press the stylus harder than others, some use these big daft stylus which also get pushed to hard, There is also a chance...

    Dsi xl colors washed out/brighter

    It may depend on if you have had them from new or know the history of the console. One may have had a screen replacement at some point - most brand new screens are not of the same quality as an OEM screen. Or one may have been used a lot more than the other - the screens wear over time, often...

    DS Lite Screens with Lens/Digitiser attached?

    You can do this pretty easily if you don't remove the old touch screen before you are ready to fit the new one. I always disconnect the screen and touch screen from the motherboard so it is free. Then I get the new touch screen, peel off the protector film and adhesive cover, then fit the...

    How Long Have Replacement DS Lite Top Screens Had Ribbon Adaptors Fitted?

    This seems a lot of work, would it not be easier to do the DS Lite TV mod - and then instead of connecting it to a TV, make an adaptor so it fits into one of the old PS One LCD screens? Have to admit I like Reddit, I'm not a member but I like reading the crazy ideas and mods they try on there...

    How Long Have Replacement DS Lite Top Screens Had Ribbon Adaptors Fitted?

    Hi Everyone, I used to fix DS Lite consoles until around 2016, so I've seen a few. Last week I purchased 3 replacement top screens from China from 3 different sellers. 2 arrived this week and both have a dead pixel on them. The third one arrived today and I have never seen one like it, my first...

    Any Recommendations On Double Sided Tape For Nintendo Rubber Screw Covers?

    I have a bunch of brand new DS Lite shells that have been sat in my garage since around 2015, when I got one out to have a look at it, it seems the double sided tape on the rubber screw covers is no longer sticky and turned yellow. The double sided tape goes on these bits: I brought a roll...

    Hi, no, as per the first post, I was changing the touch screen when I noticed that the black shell has a slightly different layout inside and was curious to see if the later DS Lite models perhaps had an updated shell

    Hardware How to reduce a 2tb HDD to a compatible one for internal HDD in PS3?

    My 4 grandchildren share one PS3 console between them, they all have different taste in games so that console has a fair few games stored on it. If a console is shared then having plenty of drive space is essential.

    Source for working Nintendo DS classic replacement case needed

    Did the hinge on your old shell break? If so, before fitting the hinges into the shell, you usually have to hold them in your hand and then use a pair of pliers to rotate the silver end of the hinge until it clicks, then fit it into the shell, it's a real fiddly job, you have to push the hinge...

    DS (ntr-003) both screens white but sound is working

    The main ribbon cable connects the motherboard to the top screen interface board, the top screen has 2 ribbons cables which are then then plugged into the top screen interface board. If the main ribbon cable was damaged your bottom screen would still be working rather than both screens being...

    Did Nintendo Make Any Changes To The Inside Of The DS Lite Shell?

    Hi Everyone, This may be a silly question but does anyone know if Nintendo made any changes to the inside of the shell on the DS Lite? I was just replacing the touch screen on an old one when I noticed the little plastic part was missing from where the stylus holder goes, so I decided to open...
