Modding the GameBoy Pocket - Backlight & Bivert

Ойындар

After modding my Original DMG, I felt prepared to tackle the GameBoy Pocket. It was not as easy as I thought. On my third attempt to backlight the GameBoy Pocket, I hope this time will go much better.
In this video, I'm going to backlight and bivert the GameBoy Pocket and throw it in a new shell. This was not an easy mod for me to do. The GameBoy Pocket is not as forgiving as the DMG and I'll show you how I messed up and how I sucessfully managed it on my third attempt.

    This mod is a little harder to do the the IPS screen. Nice video.

    I already have a GBP and GBC with IPS screen but a friend of mine offers me a DMG with backlight+vibert, it is worth? I like myself the retro image quality and the ghosting xDD

    I just peeled my screen and I have horizontal missing lines from my display? Did I ruin it or is that fixable somehow? :/

    The problem I have had with this mod is leaving lots of adhesive behind after pealing. No one talks about this? The removal of the film was fine but cleaning the adhesive down to the glass is what caused damage to the ribbon cable in my case. Thoughts?

    Same here dude. I used isopropyl, cotton buds and pads and couldn't get all the gunk off. Tried scraping which worked a bit better but high risk of scratching. I also damaged my ribbon connections 😢 now trying to get one which is proving to be tricky.

    I just did this on my DMG. I dont mind the smudges. You can't really see them with the bivert mod because the polarizer is so dark when its off, and the screen is so bright when it's on. So dont worry to much about a smudge or two especially if you risk damaging your screen to get to it.
