bdoi Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Hi My lynx II screen shows signs of weakness. I think it come from the screen directly because I tried it on another lynx and and it did the same. As you can see there are some parasites. If someone knows a solution or if someone has a screen for lynx II that he doesn't use anymore thanks to the Mcwill screen , tell me thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+karri Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 For requests like these it is nice to know roughly where the requests come from. EU, US, JP? If you are close to Finland I would love to help out. If we are talking international posting the screen is likely to be cracked when it arrives and the postage, custom declarations etc make it less attractive to help a fellow lynxer fix his screen. Last month I got two small 2.8" LCD screens from China. Both were broken when they arrived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdoi Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 thanks for your answer karri. I am from France. I think internationnal europe postage is doable in little box and i can pay via paypal as "a gift". But I also want to know if someone has ever had this kind of screen issue and if it fixable or if I just have to change the screen. regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7800fan Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 LCD can rot from the inside over time. I have a couple that looks like someone used a shotgun to it, lots of "holes" that only shows solid white and when I removed it for the new LCD, the old LCD looked like it's missing the crystal. Like something ate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsaluki Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Best has fresh new LCDs. $20. They are good quality. Brad says he has tons of them. Not sure shipping would cost to France from USA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like something ate it. You know what, everytime whem am hit the puase button on the kynx i do see a black flash on the side of the lcd screen, i am affraid that on one day, if i will push too hard on the pause button, it may eccidentaly damage the lcd screen of it.

abbath Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Can the screen lens be removed without taking the Lynx 2 apart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7800fan Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 No. Long story: there are 4 tabs that holds the lens in place, If you pried the lens off, you will likely break a couple of them. You need to take it apart all the way down to the button pad to access the 4 tabs and pop it out. Sucks though. Gameboy had an easy way: just glue. A good suction or a flat thin knife can remove the old lens and a new one drops in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
