For me it started with being just a means of doing something creative, while at the same time allowing me to somehow express myself. I kept at it because it's tons of fun, because the gameboysound is just great and also the feedback I've gotten always kept me going.

Topic: GBA Backlightmod with AGS-101 (4 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
Hey folks,
I've been playing around with my GBA for a bit, and after successfully installing an RCA-prosoundmod and also successfully syncing the GBA running Nanoloop 2 with my DMG running NL1, I tried making the GBA more "club"-suited by trying to backlight it.
I salvaged a working AGS-101-Screen from a GBA-SP from the streetmarket, got the right ribbon-cable-adapter (32 pin) and build it in.
Now this is where I come to my actual problem:
When switching on, the screen didn't show anything, didn't light up. I read up on the web that you gotta solder a powersupply on the little slot on the adapter. I tried that, but that only caused the GBA to crash everytime I turned it on. I then read somewhere that you have to do a jumper-trick where you solder the RECV-point to the GRND: 
I did that and disconnected the "powersupply"-cable. Now the screen does light up and is usable, but is not very bright. Ideas/suggestions on how to get it brighter?
Cheers!

Hi guys,
some time ago I found a dude on facebook who gave me some advice on doing a GBA-SoundMod. I tried it out and it works wonders. Here's a few pics of him and of my works:

And here's a sound sample of the Mod:

Compared to the normal sound from the headphone-jack, the sound is way louder, bridges the volume control and alot less noisy.

Thanks alot. And I'm glad to hear that others are of the same opinion. While playing we were totally stuck in the melodies that we just forgot to maybe do some changes to the rhythm
