MiL0, did you purchase the wiki's BW screen from the Amazon UK link? It shouldn't require modding to run at 5v.

yes, I've bought three in total from Amazon UK using the link in the wiki and each screen is different! (none of them worked on 5v out of the box and I've really struggled to get the mod working).

Crikey. Apologies dude, that is bad luck. Hmm you're making me have second thoughts about that screen now!
