Hi everibody! It's the end of summer and I would like to build a blue g-boy rev4u since 6 months.So let's start!
I already begin my g-boy and I weld some wires. (Also, I use a pms-pd 3 and I can't access to the micro sd card, I don't know why.)Another thing , the pcb of the screen is dead like the Wii,so I need to buy another one.I don't know if I need to enable the vga on rvloader or no.
Does anibody knows how weld the led and what led I should use?

Your U10 relocation is really sketchy. Have you checked that it's recieving 3.3v and outputting 3.3v to the via properly?

Thanks for your answer!
I dont check this but, before the trimm, I do my relocation and it was working.I will just check my composite câble because I think I wasnnt solder the good one.

To check the U10's function, you will need a multimeter. You'll need to ensure that the 3 GND pins are all connected to GND, pin 5 is being fed 3.3v, and pin 4 is outputting between 2.6v and 3.3v.

If one of the 3 GND legs broke off, you'll have to use the U9 instead. If connection to GND or 3.3v is missing, you can fix that by just running a small wire from a nearby pad to the correct leg.

Just be sure to keep that wire short. If the U10 emulation wire is too long it will cause instability

New update:with the help of @CrazyGadget, I know actually I just ripped or cute a trace on my screen when I remove the header pins on the sides.So next step is to buy (another :facepalm:) screen.I think I will take the old 240p screen because it looks esier for me to mod it.
