You probably either a) built some little bridges, or b) have weak joints. Lots of solder =/= good joint.  I recommend getting some flux and re-flowing the whole thing.

A) I have checked that and that's not the problem.
B)don't understand that part. Can you clarify me a little bit not  :)

When I bought the game gear it had a brown screen when turn on, now I have this



In the white lines I can see movements of the game like flashes but no image.

In dead screen, can I see the movements of the game?

Not been sarcastic, is a real question?   :P

Edit: wrote the question wrong

just so you know, i have no idea how the technology works, and i don't really want to spend the time to find out, but...

a quick google search shows lots of broken screens that still somehow partly show images, including this one;



so you could have a broken screen that still partly shows images, despite everything else working...
( i could be entirely wrong though )

there's a couple of replacement LCD mods for game gear out there...

I will try this first to see if it's the screen.

So, , I try the same thing on the video and it seems that the problem is the screen as Dr. Agon mention. Now it present image but it has some weird vertical lines that won't go off.  After half fix the screen ( i couldn't solve the vertical lines), to see the clear image I have to lean forward the game gear.



Any suggestions?

At the end I will have to change the screen, where can I find the same screen that the game gear uses? I only find the LED one

Well I think I will have to go with the mode. And then buy one with the original screen to keep it

I found this on YouTube and I like it. I like this option at 26:56. But don't like at 27:52. Also don't know where to buy it.

Any recommendation on a new screen?  Lcd or LED I don't mind right now

The guy who sells The screen on the video I linked lives in Germany so that won't work for me.

Any recommendation on which screen can I buy and where?

Thanks in advance

I have search on ebay, amazon and google and came with nothing, just with Mcwill (The guy on Germany, the one on the video). I wrote him, but i' m still waiting for his reply.

Any other options that you guys know?

Thanks

He's in Australia, so shipping may be easier, there not perfect, but any thing's better than nothing...
