Hacking US black ds lite non clicky R button?

[fatman711]

I got a black US ds lite and my Right shoulder is not clicky. Anyone else have this problem? Are all of them like this?

Mine clicks but its quieter than the left button. It's harder to feel it.

mine goes down like half way without doing anything then if I press it all the way down, then the button responds...annoying.

I just don't want to go exchange it and find the same problem. Any perfect DSs out there?

I thought they fixed this problem with the white ds lites?

Mine was the same so I replaced it, for one with a smokers yellow bottom screen and 2 dead pixels on the top one...

Yes, there are a few out there, my brother has one...

Probably just a rumour...

I went through 3 black DSLs till I got a perfect one... One had the bad right button too. A white DSL I exchanged, also had a bad right button.

There are perfect ones you just gotta keep exchanging em. Between my black and white DSLs I must have done 7 or 8 exchanges till I got one that was perfect of each.

How can I check my looking at the serial number, to find the newer batches of black ds lites?

The problem is probably because the wifi and mic wires run right under the right shoulder button. It's a pain in the butt to reposition those wires.

Same thing happen to my Onyx DSL, kinda annoying but I've gotten used to it since it responds just fine for me. I still would like to hear the clicky sound though, just to know it's working correctly.

Well I bought one dsl black for me this weekend and it seems to be perfect, no dead or stuck pixels, no cracked hinge, no yellowish screen, not even a button problem, the only thing that is strange is that when i turn off the screen, there seems to be some pixels still lit... but that's no big deal, when I turn on the ds again they r all gone!

The thing about the wires running down the R button. Some ppl say that is why the R button is looser feeling that the Left, but I exchanged my DS lite for another one and now, it is the opposite! The L button is much looser than the R...so i'm just confused now.

you can exchange it as often as you want, there will always be a problem with the ds lite.
either its the l/r buttons, its the d-pad diagonals not working as they should, its dead/stuck pixels, its a yellowish (touch-)screen, a shifting touchscreen or whatever.
unfort. you have to live with it.

try your shoulder buttons when the lid is closed and when it's opened -
they will feel different.

my l button is less clicky than my r button but when I push the opened lid a bit to the right my l button works nearly perfect.

try to shift your lids a bit away from the less-clicky shoulder button and it might work

btw ALL (for all the haters: ok 90%) German DS lites have yellowish touch screens
