Someone wrote either here, or on 8bc that the cart just stucks on the second page and it takes a lot of time and repeating on-off-on procedure to return it back to the first page so at the end I just had to put LSDJ in both pages and now, sometimes it would boot into page 1, but most of the times into the page two. People said it could be a deffective cart.

I was thinking...I've got the same proble as some people experience with a proken page switching in a 64m USB cart. Would it be possible to take it apart and install a little switch to change pages in the cart (should've been done in the first place instead of on-off-on-off-off-on madness). I've got a switch that'll fit in the cartridge nicely and some mad soldering skillz. Just wanted to confirm if it's possible before taking the expensive toy apart.
...they just close as soon as I click on them.
Try running it from command line (cmd)
For those who use mpd as their music library. If compile from source you can enable xm/mod/it and a bunch of other file extensions playback. It uses modplug library which can be installed from the repos.
Yeah, otherwise mark all forums read would be useless 
Can we get a response from a member of the administrators?
Gonna bump this and ask a question. Will it reduce the output volume for the headphones? I noticed in the tutorial for Pocket he didn't remove the resistors. I've got a GBC with removed speaker and resistors with an internal mod and the volume in the headphones is very quiet (of course not when I put it through the amp and the mixer) and I want to do the second one for when I'm out and about and can have a good volume in my headphones.
That's exactly what I mean kineticturtle. Would be much easier to controll yourself when you want to mark forums read.
Now, i've noticed another problem. When I stay logged in on the index page, and say need to goto:kitchen and I haven't read some of the topics i wanted to, they're all marked unread when I come back and therefore a bit harder to find/remember which ones were new. I'm not trying to be anal, just really think that mark All topics read would be a much better feature rather that marking them automaticaly after 10min Idle.
I don't belive you can't find a win xp machine just to flash your cart. No one will trade you a non-usb cart especially with a transferer. Srsly, dig into the problem a little more and I'm sure you will find the solution.
Subj. Looking for a battery cover for a black gameboy DMG. Preferably in UK :)
Oh, haven't noticed that. Well thanks for the note guyz!
Would be really handy to have "Mark all forums read" at the Index page. Sometimes you know that the new topics that were created/discussed today are not interesting and you already read the rest of useful information. So you just want to mark the whole board read and...i don't know, go to work So by the time you're back, you can see new updates again.
I'm sure it's not too hard to implement.
Thanks!
I make dub too...

And this too...
Absolutely loved it man. Such nice tunes. What did you use to write the tracks?
Keep up the good spirit!
Hai guys! I've just got a tumblr! http://platforma3.tumblr.com/
Hello everyone!
In this tutorial, I'll be adding two RCA phono sockets to the back cover of my Game Boy Color. Now, because I've already had an internal ProSound mod wired to the stock mini-jack, I'm gonna do the same for RCAs. I've had my speaker removed, so I had a little bit extra space to fit in the socket. Can't be responsible for folks with speakers.
Both outputs are working at the same time, so while RCAs are plugged into your mixer/any other piece of equipment, you can use mini-jack for monitoring your tunes!
For pictures please visit my Tumblr
First things first. We're going to need:
- 2x RCA sockets. (Unfortunately they didn't have silver ones so I bought gold ones).
- Drill, dremel tool, round shaped file, sand paper. Basicaly anything that'll help you to make two holes for your RCA sockets.
- Some different colored wires.
- A soldering iron and some solder.
- Tri-wing and + screwdriver of course.
- Hot glue (optional)
First step:
Remove first six screws from your GB and remove the back cover. Now, take your RCA socket and try a few various positions for it on the back cover. Your sockets may be bigger or smaller that mine. Depending on that you should decide upon a place for them and mark two little dots on the back cover - theese are gonna be two centres for future holes.
(Make sure that the lenght of the socket is okay. Mine are just touching the main circuit board)
Step two:
Use your favourite tool to cut out the holes. Make them as neat as possible
I used 6.5mm drill and then widened it a little bit with a round shaped file. Remove all the little cutouts of plastic and blow the plastic powder away. Be careful not to get it in your eyes or nose, wear safety glasses and respirator if needed.
After you're done, you should end up with something like this:
Step three:
Before I put my RCAs in I connected both grounds and added a longer wire, which will be connected to a ground on the PCB.
Fit your RCAs through the holes. Don't forget about L/R coloring if you have two different colors, decide which position is suitable for you. If you cut the perfect hole, they should just slot in nicely and don't move from side to side. If you're like me and you like lot's of hot glue everywhere, apply some hot glue around the connectors (just to make sure the fuckers stay in place).
Solder another two wires for Left and Right RCA. Be sure that they are long enough to reach L and R pins near the volume knob, but not too long because they are gonna be a pain in the ass to tidy up.
Step four:
Solder all hanging wires. Left RCA to the second pin (from the top), Right RCA to the third pin, and the ground to any place you're happy with. I soldered mine to the first pin. Go easy on the amount of solder, and be careful not to drop any solder on nearby PCB elements.
Step five:
This took me ages. Tidy up all your wires, and put the back cover back in the place. I had to file down a little + plastic bit near the battery connector in order to place wires underneath it. Also the place where the middle screw goes will be touching the wires, so you need to position them around it and somehow keep them in place. Or you can find another way of making it look neat and share with me!
Have fun modding your consoles everybody!
Only got GBC clear ones. They are pennies on eBay though.
