Re: the rainbow screen of death -help!

how much have you stripped it down..... I've only ripped off the USB port and the two ribbon connectors and attempted to cut down the GPIO pins. Nothing to my knowledge is bridging at all. I'll test it with HDMI in the morning, or well, later today, it's almost 7AM here and I've been working all ni...

the rainbow screen of death -help!

Hey all, I need some help please! I'm working on the BW variant 11, a RPi 3A+ and one of Helder's Retro PSU's, and I'm having issues with the screen. I thought the screen was broken at first because it wasn't working with my old PSU, but now it's turning on! Which is one step forward. The few steps ...

Audio from 3A+ headphone port?

Hi all! I'm wondering what the protocol is for getting speaker and headphone sound from the RPi3A+? I've already ripped it off and put in the composite signal for my screen. I have an audio amp, a USB audio adapter, a speaker and a headphone jack. I'm just not sure of the most efficient way to get a...

If you feel up to it, you could probably take one of the GBA mock-cartridges from Thingiverse and extend the sides out a bit to encompass your L2/R2 buttons so only the button caps are visible.
Good idea! :lol:

Re: Freeplay CM3 Dual Thumbstick + L2 R2 Build

I added https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3024005 to my CM3 build to make the port area look a little cleaner. Yes! I'm getting my designated "friend with a 3D printer" to print this and a better fitting cartridge cover. I don't think there's a way to make it look clean without the 3D parts buuuut ...

Freeplay CM3 Dual Thumbstick + L2 R2 Build

Howdy y'all! I got a Freeplay CM3 board from good ol' Ed Mandy mid-late last year, and I hadn't wanted to put it together because I had attempted to cut my first case and... well there was a lot less case when I was done, and it still didn't fit. That case was my burner, but it had gone so terribly ...

Re: JankyBoy v1 (Piecemealed GameBoy 3a+ Project)

Quick Update!

Ordered 2x retro PSU's from Helder (that USD to AUD exchange rate hurts a lot) and now I need to buy a new screen because the one that I had tested and glued into the front broke at some point :x :x :x

more money, more waiting, more time...
