Re: mintyPi 2.0

What about a setup script? so we can use a pi zero 1.3 and snes won't lag. Every zero w I have lags on snes Wermy, I second that.

Sounds like another bad connection or a bridge. Post pictures of it.
I can't get my phone to post a pic but you are right for some reason my ground connection wasn't as good as I thought, I turned it on and applied my iron to the 3.3v, the 5v, and then I tried the ground and it turned right on

Re: Bad Display Cables/ LCD Ribbon

2 screens going bad? Is unlikely and as I mentioned before post pictures of the soldering and connections to the boards. Did you test the screens on the 2nd LCD board? If it's dim but every thing else is working it could be a bad resistor on the board but again 2 board and 2 screens being bad is un...

Re: Wiring Diagram: mintyPi controller PCB

I can't seem to upload a pic from my phone, but anyways, is there a reason my pi won't boot/power up? The screen is receiving power through the pcb but not the pi and I'm not sure why, I've got everything soldered as depicted above and it even works when I powered the board during the testing stage ...

Re: Bad Display Cables/ LCD Ribbon

Is there anyway I could purchase the screen and board and pay extra to have you put the screen on the board? I ordered 2 sets and can't get either one to work, all four back lights come on but not enough to even make a white screen

Re: Bad Display Cables/ LCD Ribbon

I did everything wermy and you said but I can't get my screen to power properly. I added the tape for thickness and the screen is still dim, not white and I've been going at it for over 4 hours

I've done everything you could possibly do besides trying to solder the thing to the board
