Note that this kit has been updated to include the FRM feature. Nothing else has changed, including power usage and install. Some older stock may still be without this feature, depending on where and when you get it. See here for a demo on what FRM does: • FRM Demo feat. ZAS

I spent literally hundreds upon hundreds of hours staring at my SP and never once noticed that the bezels weren’t the same size.
And after that you'll never not notice again lol happened to me. But i bought a fully centered IPS display from retro gaming. That fixed the issue. Perfectly centered and upgraded now.
@StuntmanFord Lol, i don't like SP but i've noticed this when i made my first SP mod for someone. As far as I'm concerned, it stands out strongly
Please delete this comment so no more innocent people can never unnotice it. Jk
you're welcome. Follow me for more "fun" facts.
@@xMcNuggetBuddywhich one did you buy?
Just received mine, the official package is diff. I can tell yours got cherry picked & tested before they sent it to you.
Build quality on my kit is very much garbo, lots of stress points/ uneven glass as I have backlight leaks top left without installing it.
I had to remove the metal shield and not use 2 screws on the top, else backlight leaks everywhere with garbo black levels.
RGRS tends not to cherry pick kits for me (I know from getting defects in the past which is why I tend to test these before even starting the video) but it's possible that OC cherry picked a handful to send to RGRS first and I wouldn't put it past them. However, it's also possible that you just got a bad kit. Have you already reached out to the seller?
Just got one and have some similar issues, I have it all together now. Did removing the metal shield eliminate it completely? I'm debating cracking it back open and giving it a go.
Still waiting for a kit that includes some useful color modes, for example a desaturated mode for use with older GBA and GBC games. Those always look oversaturated on a modern LCD, imo.
100% agreed.
Link's Awakening DX for me always looks so weird with everything that should be off white looking like custard.
Me too, bud.
Funnyplaying now has a GBA SP IPS laminated kit with OSD menu (same menu as their AGB IPS laminated kit).
I also see that they now added a GBA SP ITA laminated kit.
The FP laminated IPS SP kit doesn't have integer scaling.
too bad for the fllickering and retention (it distract me a lot personnaly, at any level that i perceive, i hyper focus on it)
also yeah, the color option is a missed opportunity, they could have put a color correction one, it really look like they have put it just for the sake of putting something for "more options"
thank for your review, i saw the kit and had a hunch that it could be insatisfying for me
really hope funnyplaying are able to pull a "perfect kit" one day, i have the 3.0 laminated one and its very close, too bad no integer scalling (an equivalent of their gbc one for gba would be the best)
thanks for this helpful and informative video. Just installed this and I am pretty happy with it!
I am waiting for new gen screens for the DS. I wonder if they will ever be created. Or OLED displays for GB.
Just get yourself a Samsung Fold or Microsoft Surface Duo Smartphone and Play youre DS Games on Oled double screens ;)
@M. The Conqueror yes, I am only need to spend 800$ and I'll got shity controls and poor battery life ;)
What I Found:
"I know the Duo 2 has a bigger battery than Duo 1, but it seems to me to drain much more quickly, like 1% every 2 minutes while playing a game (3 hours to 0%). This is not a 3D game, just a simple 2D casual game like Plants vs. Zombies 2."
XD
If you don’t have one already go pickup a DSi XL guaranteed for guaranteed IPS. But as far as the other models I’m sure someday.
@@dergr7283 I own a DSi XL and the pixels on it are so large that you can easily distinguish individual subpixels with the naked eye xD
Looking into deciding what screen to put on my new SP, what does OSD stand for? As always great insightful look at these amazing products. Thank you so much!
“On Screen Display”, basically a menu overlay to adjust picture settings (commonly found on monitors & TVs)
Is there a way to bypass or completely remove the touch sensors on these screens for GBC, GBA & GBA SP? I need to perform this process even more so on the GBC as the Pokémon Pinball game causes the sensors to go haywire. PS, my second screen purchase for my other new GBA SP cobalt blue came with the proper wire so I can utilize the backlight button.
So the FunnyPlaying V.2 is still the king of IPS screens, 3 years later. It's me or every year the newer IPS mods goes worse and worse?
Probably running out of quality components to recycle
@makho did you had a chance to check power drain on your funnyplaying screen? Low, mid, high settings? I'm interested how those two compare in terms of performance. Drop in screen seems like a nice thing for OEM shells (would be nice to keep those unmodified) but I've heard that quality of this kit tends to vary, some people are complaining about light bleeds and pressure sensitivity.
I'm a little behind on the wiki currently but the spreadsheet I maintain should be up to date on power usage. I tend to list either default brightness levels or whatever I think I'd use most often and then max and minimum brightness level power usages. Check the video description.
@@makho I can see it now, saw `writeup on backlit kits` and didn't looked any further. Now I see your excel spreadsheet below there. Thank you very much for your hard work!
Can this kit be used without soldering (sorry if stupid question)
Yeah, the touch sensors cover all the functionality.
Hi Makho, which one is a not so expensive and easy to replace screen for a GBA SP 001?
I just want to see a kit with a pixel grid (simultaneous horizontal and vertical pixel grids) and the FRM that the Funnyplaying kit has to deal with transparency / flickering. Or is that even possible to do both?
ITA has FRM. I imagine FRM will become a relatively standard feature going forward.
I know this comment is almost a year old, but now this kit and the one for the gba agb model has the FRM as well. So you could get both the pixel grid and the FRM at the same time.
Do you know if the stock from retro game repair shop/the link in the description have these with the updated OSD that includes FRM? Really want to order one but only if I’m certain it has FRM in the OSD as i have the exact same screen at the moment except it doesn’t have FRM unfortunately.
I believe it was only the initial batch that didn't have that feature so they should all have it by now.
i didnt get the little red wire to sodder do i need it ? brightness button dont work
Without soldering, the button will not work.
Random question, but do these screens look noticeably different in picture quality than the OEM ones? I’m just wondering since they are listed as such a high resolution so wouldn’t the games all look weirdly scaled?
You should look into what integer scaling is. The game is the same resolution and since the scaling is using an integer value, there's no weird interpolation.
You are moving from 9 to 1 pixel to 4 to 1 pixel with pixel grid, prob higher brightness is needed to make it look good? The only thing I can see negative is being off center. You might get ~1mm-2mm if you trim the bottom lcd plastic (those 4 plastic indents ) and shift the thing to the left ?
You can get better centering by doing that, yeah, but it would probably also require modifying the housing too.
And yeah, to get the same perceived brightness with the pixel grid emulation on, you would have to increase the brightness.
This laminated IPS 1 chip kit is out there for the original GBA now. Would you recommend it over the Funnyplaying v3 kit? I had that ordered but canceled when I saw it doesn't have integer scaling.
I guess I'm wondering if this kit has any lag or power drawbacks in comparison?
There is no funnyplaying "v3" kit. Do you mean the 3.0" IPS kit?
I have a wiki linked in the description that has a summary on all the kits I've tried.
So the GBA one is not laminated and only the SP one is, that is such a bummer. The new funnyplaying one is laminated but not integer, this from OC for GBA is integer but not laminated, only the Cloud Game Store one is laminated and integer? but in your other videos the color of the CGS GBA kits looks bad :/
Funnyplaying does have integer scaled laminated kits. ITA is available in laminated for GBA and SP and for non-laminated for GBA.
Nice video, that GBA SP looks awesome!
Thanks for the video
I've read some things online about different models supplying different amounts of power. Will this screen work on an AGS-101?
Yes, works on both models.
Do you have to solder that ribbon or can you skip that step?
Does it come with the little red wire to control the brightness? If not, could you recommend what wire I can use?
My copy of this kit has a “FRM” option in the OSD, would you by chance happen to know what that means/does?
fixes this
th-cam.com/video/vuNLBN54aUY/w-d-xo.html
Did this work with any model of sp? I have a few and debating on getting this or just a cheap replacement off ebay
Should work with every variant of SP, yes.
@@makho Sick, probably going to pick a few up soon.
i was asking FP about there 3inch ips kit. and they said its not lg screens so is it worth buying from them if lg looks better
It's a completely different LCD. LG made the 9380s. The 3.0 IPS isn't a 9380.
I really want to mod my sp but that soldering thing is the only thing holding me back I keep trying to find a true drop in with no soldering but they all requiere it. Can someone help me find a real drop in no soldering kit and link it ?
I thought this ips kit came with the wire to be able to utilize the brightness control button. What gauge is suggested? And what a lot of these videos fail to add, the 5 rubber parts needed to be removed in order to get to the screws when swapping screens, may need replacing as the adhesive doesn’t stick to these parts rather they are sticking to the screws. It was tedious but I had to carefully remove the adhesive from the screws before removing the screws from the shell. Is anyone selling these parts separate from the shells? I’m a little freaked out over this as I spent $600 on a new in the box Kingdom Hearts edition GBA SP 001. all I planed was to update screen and change buttons to clear & transparent black.
I literally showed the entire process. That's why this video is an hour long. What you're saying I skipped is about 17 minutes in.
Why on earth would you spend that much on a console to do this sort of thing without knowing what you're doing? I'm sorry you're having trouble and I hope you get it worked out.
@@makhotoday I added the lipo, wire & speaker. So awesome!
Is there a way to cancel out the touch sensors, Also the V5 ips on my gba kingdom hearts I purchased from 8bit aesthetic?
if the shield is removed, would this still fit the hdmi mod as well? and could i swap the lcd to a non laminated one? or better yet swap this board for the one that came with the v2?
v2..? This is a different screen than they've used with other kits so it wouldn't be compatible even if I knew what you meant specifically by "v2". I'm not sure why you'd want a non-laminated LCD either when laminated is an option.
Without the shielding, yeah, you can probably make the HDMI board fit. It's going to be very tight though.
May i ask where you found the test cartridge?
I cant find any rom with Key input tester :/
My site linked in the description has a list of all the test carts I use
@@makho bismillah brother i hope god will bless you. Happy Easter!
Is the soldering easy on this? Never soldered before. I am (way) over 18 so it doesn't faze me. Any advice on a good but cheap soldering iron?
Don't learn to solder on this or your GBA. It's easy to pick up but difficult to master and there's a lot of feel to it. I recommend starting with an iron that has temp control and learning on a solder practice kit.
This is one of the easier things to solder, however.
For the price, i would've wished that it had the gameboy advance sp logo on it.
It does, it shows it in the video, if your looking at the website, they intentionally edit out the logo for copyright reasons.
Does this make NES roms on the ezflash look any better? I hate the squashed pixels.
Not really. The NES games on GBA are all rendered at the wrong resolution because the GBA only supports 240x160.
I noticed that in the ips gba sp the with 800 mah battery, the red led comes on too soon, almost 2 hours before shuts down, I will be better if appear 30 minutes before, there's isn't a mod to do this?
Not really. This is a quirk of the LMO (Lithium Manganese Oxide) battery compatibility. LMO batteries have different voltage curves than modern common Lithium-Ion cells (and especially the Lithium Polymer cell that my mod uses) and so Nintendo originally used LMO batteries in this console and set the low battery warning relatively high to line up with the voltage curve of LMO batteries.
With a LMO battery, the low power warning lines up approximately with remaining life in the battery but this makes it so LiPo batteries are reported as mostly depleted even though they are at or above approximately half capacity.
Thankfully the charge profiles are the same between all three types of batteries though (at least at this low current) so aside from the early triggering indicator in some cases, there's no issues swapping between the three chemistries. You do lose some capacity on the low end due to the somewhat high low voltage cutoff too but it's relatively minor and realistically good battery practice so not too big a deal IMO.
@@makhook i understand, maybe the solution is add an independent module indicator connected directly to the battery or some similar.
Would this LCD display also work in the AGS-001?
I mean, that's the video you're watching. It works in all AGS consoles the same.
Question: are there larger battery for the SP?
No.
Nothing larger than the one I sourced: retrogamerepairshop.com/collections/gba-sp-power/products/gba-sp-game-boy-advance-sp-rechargeable-850mah-lipo-battery-mod-by-makho
@@makho oh okay might do a USB C mod and carry a power bank as precaution, thanks anyway for the info.
Yikes that power draw...
if 9380 LCDs going out something coming in
But will this fit in an authentic oem shell ???
You know that's what I used in the video, right?
can you sue the ags 001 with this?
?
