Hi,

Someone have a Wiring diagram for this PCB ?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gameboy-DMG-01- ... SwcL5XNLRF

I don't know where i have to solder my +/- of my speaker on RPi or on a speaker booster.

I want to try before buy a speaker booster.

Thanks

I can confirm this works. @Camble is correct about the bat wire, it for sure won't stay powered on without it. I am powering everything off the powerstrip and not the pi and I do not have data lines going to the charge port and it starts up and shuts down perfectly

Pretty much my components also listed here in this thread, so this will be of much help for my upcoming build :)

Thank you guys!! :D

edit: actually I have a question.. in Helder's diagram from his support thread (here) I see that the 5V from the screen is wired to the power strip.
In the diagram in the first page of this thread the screen's 5V is wired to the RPi..
which one is correct? Or is it pretty much the same? :)
Cheers! :D

I heard it could cause issues wiring it to the pi. I have mine wired to the power strip

So I'll follow Helder's wiring here, eh?
Thank you very much :)

Very quick and very sloppy edit of how I wired mine up. You can see the thicker and not-so-straight lines. This is how I have mine working. Screen may vary, I had to have both pins hooked to the pi for mine.

Thank you very much for the update :)

do you know by chance how should I wire a red led to signal for the low battery?
it's my understanding that it should be wired to the LBO pad on the Safe Shutdown break board , and the ground also on the ground of the Safe Shutdown.. is it necessary to add a resistor before the led? or the ones already mounted on the Safe Shutdown will do the trick? :)
Cheers! :D

I just use the LED on the powerboost. I am planning on running a small fiber optic strand from the light to the side of the case then I don't have to mess with the powerboost at all.

I see..
well I don't want to mess with the powerboost, yet, so my question was about wiring the red led for the low battery notification to the Safe Shutdown break board.
Cheers! :D
