    Hacking Gateway Blue Card Issue (Not the Same as Other Thread)

    Looks like I will be testing it out with an emulated version of 9.2 from my 4.5 unit. At least that way I will know if it works on emunand.

    Hacking Gateway Blue Card Issue (Not the Same as Other Thread)

    I recently ordered my girlfriend a Gateway card since it will be supporting 9.2 soon, but for some reason the blue card does not boot on her system. It has no problems on my 4.5 machine, and even my MT blue card will launch on hers without issue. Is there a way to fix this, or will she just have...

    Gaming PSP Slim screws

    Well, I just finished case modding my Slim, and I lost the 2 little screws on top. I don't know of any place in my city that sells screws in that size, and the glasses repair kits don't have the right size screws either. Anyone know what the size is called so I can find them online?

    Hacking Memory card screwed =[

    Where did you get the card? It might be a poor quality knock off, and those tend to corrupt more often than not. Have you tried reformatting your card?

    Hacking A geood DS Lite touch screen replacement

    Yeah, but the ribbon on the screen is crap and they are not that responsive. I would rather pay a little more for a better quality screen than hope that the ribbon won't screw up while I am trying to install it.

    Hacking A geood DS Lite touch screen replacement

    Okay, so I got a replacement screen and it is not exactly that good. The ribbon was a little wide, but once I took care of that there was no problem. Unfortunately, the ribbeon slipped out of the connector and when I replaced it the connections in the ribbon seem to have broken. Fortunately the...

    Hacking Is my DS f***ed?

    All I can say is you might need to find that tab. I do not knoe how to rig one, and I doubt there is anyone selling them. I am pretty sure you could rig something, but we need a long term solution. Maybe a little electrical tape that presses a small object down where the clamp used to be...

    Hacking HELP! PLEASE! I BEG YOU!

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/shalf/sets/72157604320666655/ http://cgi.ebay.com/Nintendo-DS-lite-Repla...Z1QQcmZViewItem This is the method and part I used. You will need to be very skilled with your soldering iron to do this right. Of course, depending on the compatibility of the hardware, you...

    Hacking Is my DS f***ed?

    Well, I had a similar problem. Did the tab break, or did it just pop off? Mine popped off, and I was able to put it back in (it is not as easy as it sounds). You have to carefully pry up the pins (if it is the smallest connector, I do not know about the larger ones) and slide them into the holes...

    Homebrew mobile phone emu

    I guess my google searches were too exact then, since I spent quite some time hunting before I posted. I also torrented a 1000 phone game collection, and I even found a lot of games I want to play (Silent Hill: Orphan, Golden Warrior series, sadly FFVII Before Crisis is a .sis so it won't work...

    Homebrew mobile phone emu

    I swear I read about a mobile phone java game emulator for the DS, but now I can't find any mention of it. Does anyone know what I am talking about? I keep finding pages online about the PSP version.

    Hacking DS Lite touch screen not responding.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/BOTTOM-SCREEN-LCD-FOR-...1QQcmdZViewItem DealExtream is much cheaper, but because of their location the shipping time will take weeks. I am a firm believer in "time is money", since I am starting my own business (I am producing a card game, not repairing systems) and that is...

    Hacking DS Lite touch screen not responding.

    Fortunately this was a free DS (I fixed 7 PSP firmware problems at a shop, and they gave me a broken DS and DS Lite), and I am thinking it is a loose connection. Sadly, the clamp that holds the ribbon down popped off earlier, and I had to fix that. My repair looks good as new, and holds it in...

    Hacking DS Lite touch screen not responding.

    I am refurbishing a DS Lite, and when I finally got the thing to turn on the touch screen is not responding to my touching. It turns on and is bright, but the thing is not doing its job. Are there any connectors that might be loose, or do I just need a new screen (which I would not mind doing)?
