woooo i have ips upper and tn lower

same here

 

[Sicsuicide]

i wonder if i can find an ips for lower on ebay?

This is a very cool tool. The screen type identifier is an awesome and fitting addition but I've really wanted an installed title count since my homemade VC injections got a bit out of hand.

I think this is an essential 3dsx. Thank you!

Both screens have TN display.

Meh, i don't even bother with that.

There is an installed title count in the update that was just released. It just doesn't show their names.

Sorry - I should have been clearer - that's what I was referring to. It's a godsend and why I've installed this all over the place. Names of individual titles aren't necessary! Cheers.

By "Displays screen type."
You mean the IPS screen, or the other type ?

Yes IPS or TN.

Greatly appreciate this new feature, thank you.

 

[Asia81]

The only missing thing is a nice UI now xD
Thanks for this!

probably already mentioned, but the homebutton might freeze this

N3DS XL Zelda MM Limited Edition: both upper & lower screens are TN No luck for me

How does it pull the information of the screen type? Reason i ask is i ran it and have a top ips, i have a spare bottom screen, but dont want to swap it just to find out.

look at sciresm's source: https://github.com/SciresM/ScreenInfo/ it probably involved reverse engineering ctraging to get it...

Its roughly 20 lines of code if that. Don't show much, something to do with the vendor id

I reverse engineered CTRAging to find the service call it uses to get screen information.

It makes a call to https://3dbrew.org/wiki/GSPLCD:GetVendor, which returns a u8 describing the screens.

(u8 & 0xF) == bottom screen, 1 = IPS, 0xC = TN

((u8 >> 4) & 0xF) == top screen, same as above

Can you always be sure a certain vendor always supplies a certain LCD type?
And curiously, do you know which vendors manufacture TN or IPS?
My wild guess: SHARP=TN, SAMSUNG=IPS.
