LCD board help convert to 5V

[Pirate]

Hello everyone I could really use some help I been trying to figure out how to convert this LCD board to 5V but I can't find an answer.
Here's the picture of the board itself

ALSO: here's the link where I bought it (it was really nice well packaged and also the screen doesnt come glued to the case so it was easy to remove) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3-5-Inc ... 04646.html

Thank you in advance.

Thank you in advance.

According to the wiki, you have a variant 7 screen.
You need to solder a wire from the areas I marked in red:



It could be that it still does NOT work after that. If that is the case, you actualy need to desolder that chip (the one with the marked pin) and solder a wire to the same marked area.

Cool, I used an RPi 3 in mine.

Can you report back if the conversion to 5V has suceeded?

Will you use it with Retropie? If yes, does that work out of the box?

Yes there is a huge community dedicated on porting Retropie on to the OPI and right now we have a stable release and it works perfectly right out of the box here's the facebook group for the RetroOrangePi

ALSO: they made an official forums where you can download the right version for your board.

Oh, cool!


(Correct me if I am wrong), but as I am seeing correctly it is an old version of Retropie, right? Are there any versions that keep up with the latest release?

[Pirate]

Right now RetroOrange pi version is 2.5 running on retropie 4.0 or 4.1 NOT 2.5
