Hacking Broken ds

[Potticus]

I can acquire a broken hinged phat ds
But other than the hinge, the top screen is fuzzy.

Is this fixable?

You probably just have to replace the screen.

That's what I was thinking.

Does DX sell topscreens?
I know they sell bottoms.
And I would have to buy a fat case

I dont know if its worth changing all that stuff but it really would be case and the top screen

 

[Potticus]

It's free man
And my friend wants a ds

Anyone got a nice detailed guide to fixing hinge and top screen with material list.

In the phat the top and bottom screens are the same...
EDIT: Probably not the top screen. I think it's the long topscreen cable that goes through the hinge. I think that's all you need to replace, not the whole screen.

I had thought of that, but not sure how to change a ribbon :/
So Replace the hinge and probably the ribbon.
