    Question BitBuilt-Purchased Screen Flickering

    I'm not sure of your scenario, I think it could also have been improper connection. The screen uses about .2A at 5v so the wire thickness is not crucial, there is no difference.

    Question BitBuilt-Purchased Screen Flickering

    If you haven't modified the screen you should try with 12v dc input. Sounds like a power problem to me.

    Light Tube

    The tube goes in long end and it will insert to be flush with outside of the case. You may need to open the hole a little with an xacto blade (from inside insertion). It is suppose to be very tight, it is possible.

    G-Boy won't turn on after soldering the USB data lines for the 10th time

    Make sure the batteries are fully charged (up to 4.2v). 2.9v is dead battery and it cannot possibly power the wii, not sure if you charged it since initial message.

    G-Boy won't turn on after soldering the USB data lines for the 10th time

    G-Boy won't turn on after soldering the USB data lines for the 10th time

    First observation is that you should not be using thick wire for the small solder pads. You can use the magnet wire for the connections to the USBc board and the rgb led. Also you can clean the burnt flux residue with isopropyl alcohol. Check if the usb data connections from the wii are...

    Stuck Shoulder Button

    Stuck Shoulder Button

    Question RVL power management fried?

    You probably need to replace U7 the BQ IC. You will need a hot air station to do it. The part number and link to buy IC is in the rvlpms github BOM

    Solved A PMS Fuck UP

    Yes they are the same. You don't need a lot of airflow for this rework, I keep the air flow pretty low. I see lots of solder blobs on U7, jobs not done. Do not apply power to it until it looks perfect.

    Question Chineses board i found, i think is good

    This is just battery charging. Rvlpms is battery charging and wii custom regulators. Pretty different products.
