Hi, I’m facing an issue with my Xbox One. My Xbox won’t boot at all. It’s completely dead. Already replaced the Front...

Hi! You swapped the PCB for your original one, right? You need the PCB which is linked to your motherboard, otherwise it won’t read games. And as long as the drives are the same types it should be okay. Example: BD490 replace for BD490. Or BD860 should be replaced for exactly BD860.

Hi! So, you already replaced the charge port, right? Did you tried with another battery? It could be the battery which is faulty and not holding any charge.

Hi There! So.. In the menu you can eject the disk and when you press the physical button on the drive it’s not ejecting the disk, right? My advise is to check the buttons and the rollers. But it’s difficult to buy such specific parts… Is there anyway to test with another drive?

Hi! I’m afraid it’s motherboard related. You could inspect the motherboard if you can find something which is the cause. Otherwise there is not much left to do… Maybe someone else here knows which component you need to replace on the motherboard it self (requires soldering most of the time).

Hi! Usually this error is caused by the following failing components: (blue blinking light and then turns off 2-3 seconds): (1) Faulty PSU (2) APU is failing Are you sure that everything is connected as it should? Perhaps your PSU is beginning to die soon..

Some information from the microsoft website: You can connect a compatible headset to your Xbox Wireless Controller, or an Xbox Elite Wireless Controller by using either of the following methods: with a 3.5mm audio jack, or with the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter. Note The Xbox One console does not feature Bluetooth functionality. You won’t be able to connect your headset to the console using Bluetooth. And some more information regarding the incompatible headsets: The following headsets are incompatible with the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter: - Mad Catz Tritton Warhead headset - Mad Catz Tritton Primer headset (Mad Catz offers an adapter for the - Primer headset to convert the 2.5-mm audio jack to a 3.5mm audio jack. Contact Mad Catz for support.) The Xbox 360 Wireless Headset and Xbox 360 Wireless Bluetooth headset Headsets with this 2.5mm connector will not work because of the connector format. Looks like a bluetooth headset won't work... Sorry.

Hi! No, those apps are not available for the Switch. And for some games you need Nintendo Switch Online (to play online multiplayers).

Hi! The Switch is region free. And if it was region locked, I guess it’s motherboard/software related and not reader related. So it should fit and work. If this is regarding the Micro SD card reader, you should be able to replace this one too.

Hi there! Won’t work as in, it won’t boot? I think there are not many options left. You could bring it to a repair shop or you could open it up by yourself and see what’s in the inside. PlayStation 4 Motherboard Replacement

Hi! The foam inside is custom. Did you checked some local (repair) stores? Some other devices also uses this kind of foam. Even the backside of the original Gameboy Advance LCD. If you can’t find it anywhere, you could use the foam you have. Do you have pictures of the current state of the foam? And otherwise you could look it up online: https://www.ebay.com/b/anti-static-foam/bn_7024767787 Hopefully this will help.

Hi!

No, you can reuse the plastic flap. It will stay at it’s place when you place it back. You can even do it without the plastic flap, it’s just for extra security to hold everything at it’s place.

Hi Jon!

Thanks for your comment!

At this moment it still works fine for all the GBA’s I modded.

As it won’t have any affect if you leave the plastic foil be at the backside, I’ll remove the step from the guide to prevent any damage which can be done if you remove it.

Thanks again for thinking with me!

Hi there again!

Just finished the IPS mod guide!

If you have questions/need help, please let me know.

Good luck!!

Hi!

No, you can’t control the brightness with this mod. But I will try to create the IPS mod guide soon (hopefully next week)! With the IPS screen mod, you can control the brightness. But… you need to solder 3 wires. One on the TP2, and the other 2 cables for R and L buttons. You need to hold select, and press R and L to increase and decrease the brightness.

The IPS screen is a different screen with a special adapter. I’ll try to create the guide soon.

Perhaps it’s possible with another adapter for controlling the brightness on the AGS-101, but I don’t have this kind of adapter.

Hi there!

You are required to swap the PCB to play games. With an non-married PCB to your current motherboard, should still accept discs! You’ll be able to watch movies only. Are you sure that everything is dust free? Perhaps you got another faulty drive… The issue you describe is common.

PS: Merry Xmas everyone!

Hi!

Yes, you need to use your old PCB. If you do not transfer your (original) PCB from your drive, you’ll not be able to play games..

1. Sometimes no. It depends on the fake (there are many different fakes), but some of them are not able to wake up the console from sleep.

2. It should work in every app and game, but due the soldered on thumb sticks (they do not use the original ones) they do not respond every time or feeling identical. Some fakes uses a totally different input board which is causing that it’s unresponsive and/or not feeling identical to the original.

Correct. Some other models have 2 black screws at the back, near the corners.

The models with the 2 black screws, are missing the 2 silver screws at the left side and the right side in the middle.

Note: You need to release the 2 black screws as well, if your type of model has them.
