The FPGA thing makes me wonder about replacing the LCD PCB altogether... ever chased the various posts about Kitsch Bent's LCD replacement?

Bad luck sad The cheapest thing to do is usually to get another DMG and salvage the parts. You can find a fair amount that are in bad cosmetic condition, but the innards are perfect.

Hi peeps...

Is there any way to fix this? Soooo annoyed!!

Doing a backlight mod and slipped as the last corner came off and ripped the bottom screen ribbon cable in half...

Assuming I won't be able to fix it is there a way to get a replacement cable or a new screen????


Thanks!!!
