Re: Circuit Sword Lite - first boot - TESTER and NORMAL mode showing only RGB

I managed to make it working. There was probably a bad soldering in one or more of the pin of the raspberry pi. I've looked at another post here in the form and someone had a similar problem. Then I checked all my pins and 3 of them weren't soldered perfectly. I fixed them and there it was, it worke...

Re: Circuit Sword Lite - first boot - TESTER and NORMAL mode showing only RGB

I think it might be something related to the LCD screen. I enabled SSH into the retropie, ssh-ed into the raspberrypi and manually run the Test script that looks good. Screenshot_ssh.png Could it be something related to the soldering of the raspberrypi? This is the current situation. No TESTER mode....

Re: Circuit Sword Lite - first boot - TESTER and NORMAL mode showing only RGB

Hi,
do you mean to use the NORMAL mode instead. Because I've done that and I have got the same problem with the screen.
Any advice?

Thanks

Re: Circuit Sword Lite - how to connect rear buttons

Hi Kite, thank you for the reply.
Unfortunately, I'm not that good with electronics, I didn't really catch up everything. It would be really helpful if could add those steps into the wiki with the pictures too.

Thanks.

Circuit Sword Lite - how to connect rear buttons

Hi,
I'm trying to put together my first Gameboy Zero using Kite's Circuit Sword Lite.
In the wiki I cannot find a step to connect the rear buttons L1/R1.
Is there anyone that can guide me through it or give any advice?
Thank you!

Re: the first GBZ ever --> by a n00b

Thank you @ericker. I will have a look. I signed up for the new wave of Kite's board on this link. I will patiently wait for the 29th of October and see if I can get 2 boards on the next pre-order.

I'll keep you guys posted.

Re: the first GBZ ever --> by a n00b

I've never own a Ferrari (that'll be great :D ). But in case we want to go with the bare controller button, do you recommend the Tinkerboy v3.0 (I can see there are 6 buttons, I need only 4 right :?: ). Secondly, if we want to go with the Lamborghini, do we need to post in the forum or there is a pl...

the first GBZ ever --> by a n00b

Hello, I'm not even sure if this is the right place to write the post, but I'll do it anyway. A friend and I want to start learning a little bit of electronics and raspberry pi. We are both computer engineers but we lack on electronics. When we saw all the amazing project with the Gameboy zero we go...
