Do you have a guide for adding the headphone port? This is something I would like to give a go during my next weekend off.
I'm at work now. but once I got home I can elaborate something. the pictures that took when modded the thing are horrid that I'm shocked I was able to take pictures that blurry.
The general idea is to drill the case to make room for the jack and then solder the wires to the charging port internally
maybe you'll be able to made a decent guide. I'm very bad making guides.
Well yes - if you bridge them permanently, the speakers will be disabled. I figured you'd use a GBA SP connector for this sort of thing, but if you want it permanently in the system, you could connect the two pins with a switch or something.
That being said, GBA SP headphone adapters are readily available, so you don't have to fiddle with it yourself - they're super-cheap on EBay.
the quality of these adapters is also very super-cheap and don't last for very long.
that problem with the forever disabled speaker is easily fixed if you manage to fit a 3.5mm plug with switch inside. I barely managed to fit one without switch from a dead mp3 player and added the extra contact with a bent paperclip soldered to ground and soldering pin1 with audio ground together, so when you aren't using a headphone the speaker still works.
