(i like using my rework station )

I take a few pictures during the process, so i created a tutorial .. (not really needed) . but you can take a look here.
http://noizeinabox.blogspot.co.uk/2012/ … plant.html

But is not explained how to desolder and resolder directly .. there are a lot of gooood video tutorials on internet for that.. so use google.

and also Thanks to NeX, who seems to be the initiator of this mod if i'm right .. (don't want to offend anyone) and for the help he gave me ..

i worked out a way to fix it which would be adding a transflective layer to the back of the LCD but the problem is i have no idea where to get it from and it seems to cost a stupid amount of money. i was going to have a go with some mirror tinting film for car windows, but i cant get at it at the moment.

i saw a post on 8bc about this
apparently you can get really cheapo ipod screen covers that do the job !!


thanks for that, i will have to give it a try
