Hi
I'm looking for a DMG front PCB and screen with the dreaded horizontal (generally unfixable) lines problem (turns out I might be able to fix them)
so if you fancy trying to let me save it instead of killing it further, PM me. (or reply to this thread...)

well working LCD's are always useful, since they are totally (except for BennVenn's expensive 3" LCD mod - which I have
) irreplaceable so if it's otherwise doing nothing, I'll have it to revive an otherwise good DMG
PM me what you'd like for it

PM'ed you.
Oh, and as for the DMG display, it can both be repaired horizontally and vertically, but it requires very skilled operation
Because when you want the horizontal lines back you need to do the same as with the vertical lines fix, only in the case of hor. you have to reflow the ribbon wich is on the right side under the glass, thus the ribbon front right (with the metal pin bent around) needs to be unsoldered and lift the lcd up to acces the other ribbon, it's a real pita but it can be done i can confirm
but i dont recommend it.
