hello gbatemp, i have a strange issue with my new3dsxl (a9lh+luma3ds).

the touchscreen is flickering at the left and right side (only in homemenu and in games, a9lh payloads aren't affected). it's gone after a few minutes but if i reboot the console it comes back.

i assume it's not a hardware problem because if i restore my pre-a9lh 9.2.0 backup, the touchscreen isn't flickering anymore.

so it only flickers with a9lh installed :unsure:.

does anyone else have this problem?

Are you using a nightly luma build or a normal one?
You can try to do a ctr-transfer to 9.2 and update by the console update option.

i'm using the latest release from here: https://github.com/AuroraWright/Luma3DS/releases

i'm updated to latest firmware but the flickering is still there.

In which version are you? Try changing the powersaving setting if you are in lastest version.

now on 11.2. i turned the powersaving setting off but it doesn't works..

How about restoring your pre-A9LH backup with Hourglass9? A9LH itself should mess with it.

I had that issue, but I literally turned brightness to one, auto-brightness to off, and power-saving mode on.

Could just be me. Might just be you?

I definitely noticed 9.2 lacks many 10.3 implements. Definitely try what I did and clean your camera/FT with a Q-tip.

thanks for helping guys. i've tried everything but nothing works. even after a complete reinstall of a9lh the flickering is still there.

if someone else has more suggestions please let me know.

(and thanks to @'Don for helping me through whatsapp)

Try updating luma to lastest version, delete luma folder in your sd and try again.

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Hope you've had a good morning.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive

    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.

    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
