Is there anyone who knows how to help and not ask me if im sure I have a modded system...? (Ive been asked that like 3 times... Trust me, I know the difference.) Just to clarify, Its and AGB-001 Original GBA system with a BACKLIT AGS-101 screen with no soldering and is on the lowest brightness setting. Id like to know if there is a way to manually adjust the brightness without a switch installed. (And no, adjusting the pot doesn't help.)

Here's a pic of the cable. This is where the wire for the brightness would normally be, but there isn't one. Can a wire be soldered there and then to a certain point to make the brightness higher? If anyone has a modded GBA could you send a pic of where the wire is on your cable?

there are 2 adapters one for motherboard with a screen conector of 32 pins another for a connector of 40 pins.
Since i cant see from your photos what adaptor you have could you tell us what adapter it is (32 or 40)?

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I thought about that and I have blank DVD's and Blurays but honestly after like 90 songs I just listen to it a couple of hundred times toss it out and burn something else or have like 2-3 CD's. Florida here the heat in the car tends to ruin the CD's after like a few months even commercial pressed ones don't last too long.
