Hi all! When I start my oled I get the attached photo of my screen and I need your help to know the cause. Background of what happened. I ordered modded motherboard from aliexpress and I installed it and when I started my switch I got the attached photo. I don't remember putting pressure on the screen that might damage the screen but I might switch some screws location's not sure if that's enough to damage the screen. What you think guys?? I forgot to mention that I get green light on the modded chip when I started the switch.

If you have a hwfly/picofly modchip then a permanent green light means that it is working successfully.
It's probably trying to show the 'no sd card' message.
Picofly uses that kind of blue color in it's logo.
If it's a picofly, just ask the experts here :

I could only find a similar image in a post of a user that dropped his oled.
Not to give you any hope but in the best case it could be a displaced ribbon cable.
But in the worst case it could be your screen.

Thank you mate! Now I have black screen with sound when I touch the screen or use joycons somehow. It Doesn't make sense and yes it displays fine when docked. I reseated the lcd ribbon cable multiple times with no luck. Could it be the lcd screen damaged? If so how come it is still responsive to touch? Are they two separate functions

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
