How-To: Frontlight your GBA

That's frontlit? Uh...I don't understand... :huh:
Look at the second picture. See the thing sticking out from underneath the screen? That's the light diffusion panel. It diffuses the LED's light to make it even. I have pics and a video, but I think you've seen 'em.

Well, yes. Frontlit implies that it is lit from the front. This can be contrasted to the conventional backlight, which is in fact a light, originating from the backside, or, as one could put it, the ass.

Contrary to popular belief, I am not so hopelessly loss that I didn't get that part. :lol2:
 
Uh, did you read my reply? I explained it. You can see the panel.
@xX-You solder ground to the lower pin, a 20-60 ohm resistor to the top pin, then put the panel on top of the LCD. Super simple.

That's what I was looking for. :wink3:

EDIT: The panel out of a GBASP, right?
 
Let us know when its on! By the way, if I were to hook up a crystal from one CGB into another in addition to the one it already has, would it overclock it?

It would be impossibly hard to play games since the the GBA's crystal is around 4mhz.
It would work just fine :rofl: I think that the max crystal ever used was 69mhz, used by palmer himself. You're overclocking for pokemon aren't you?
