I haven't sent updated pics but as of today i do have magnet wire connected from the reset via to ground my voltages are correct after redoing my regulators, while under load, connected to the board. I have my regulators all linked to ground on my board also i have a composite screen the yellow...

I have redone the U10 via its much neater now. I supplied a few pics hopefully clearer. Still the same results unfortunately.. I actually had my multimeter to 200kohms i was reading it wrong..Im getting 8k ohms on the 3.3 line, and about 200 and 600 or so on the 1 and 1.5 lines. So no shorts? I...

Yeah I think its my phone...kinda sucks but I'll take some clearer ones asap. I'll try to redo that via. Also i was reading through the noob question section and noticed a post stating there's two 3.3v areas of the board. Do I have to run two 3.3 lines?? I currently am only running one. But...

A few pics of what i have..

Okay so im getting .9v on the 1.15v line. 3.4v on the 3.3v line, and 1v on the 1v line..i keep rebuilding the 1.15 regulator and its fine until i connect it to the board. Then i don't get the volts I need...maybe because of shorts?. I'm getting 7.8ohms on the 3.3line, like .2ohms on the 1.15 and...

USB is what I meant, not SD. I hope the reset to ground is it. Thanks @Nold @cheese I'll test for shorts tonight. Still learning all of this. I've been reading the content on here for over a year but still seem to learn something new every other day. I'll try it out tonight.

This afternoon I'll take a lot of pics and upload em here. If that is the case hopefully it's not ruined. If so...I have another 4-layer board about to arrive in a few days

Yeah I cut the trace. I actually did it kind of backwards. I relocated the U-10, then installed PM. Then did the trim. Everything worked before the trim. I can try to replace the wire on the U-10. I just left it as is seeing as it was working.

@BocuD I'll try to get the regulator to 1v under load and see if that works. I'm going to send pics today of everything.

Yeah I sanded all the edges are pretty smooth. But maybe I just have to sand more I can distinctly see four layers at some parts of the board. I haven't found any pics on here of a side view of the board to compare though. I did install PM and the no wifi cios everything booted fine before the...

I waited about a full minute. I don't have SD relocated yet. Just wanted to make sure the board isn't shorted before doing all of that. I don't have a 5v reg. Still same results, black screen. I adjusted my regulators. I'm getting .8v, 1.15v, and now 3.3v but still the same results, all under...

Okay I'll try to readjust that regulator to get a higher voltage then pray it works..lol thanks for the quick reply

I'll post pics when I get home today this is my first Wii portable. I relocated the U-10 installed PM, everything booted fine. Did the OMGWTF trim sanded the edges, built my regulators using pth08080's I have a 1v, 1.15v, and 3.3v showing .9v, 1.1v, and 3v respectively. I have a 5" lcd composite...

Thanks, I appreciate it I'll send you a pm. I didn't really phrase my question well but yeah I was looking to buy either or both, though the PowerMii isn't essential. I'm working on my first portable currently and just know when I get to the point of adding a controller it will be a ton easier...

Anyone? If not the PowerMii def. The GC+ is needed..

Dude you guys are awesome, thanks so much for the quick replies. I feel like a complete donkey now realizing the 1v is on the wrong side :( but thanks for pointing that out. The tape i know is a rigged unorthodox method, I tested a few things out that way and it seemed to work that way, I'll...

So..this is my first botched attempt at powering my trim off two 26000 batteries. 7.4 volts, 2s, basically just taped together for testing purposes. I tested the screen with an untrimmed Wii on wall power. Screen works fine. It's composite but I'm content with it for my first portable. At this...

So I guess before posting I should have tested it..not destroyed, I got it to boot up, installed portablize me no wifi, just did the trim

So just started my portable, already burnt out my U-10, and 9..prob. have to but a new board just wanted to send a pic and see if the trace was cut too deep at the u5.. it seemed like I scraped off the green layer..then copper underneath which I thought was the "trace" layer..corrections...

Okay thanks so much, I really appreciate it man. I'll get one of those, and hopefully not f it up this time...lol I'm sure I'll have a ton more questions for you guys on the forums.
