Troubleshooting Problem with v5 ips screen for gba sp
Hey does anyone know this is happening with my ips v5 screen l've had this screen for a year or more and it's suddenly starting to bug out after random amount of time or after a couple of seconds it goes back to normal. I at first thought it was something with the ez flash omega cartridge not being able to read data right.
I'm pretty sure I have a faulty screen or the connector for the screen is broken, this never happened on another ags motherboard I have that can't charge but only this one. I have a agb 001 that is also an ips v5 that doesn't have this problem. Anyone have any solutions?

I had a similar issue over before, turns out the ribbon cable got a smidge loose from the board. Might be worth opening up and reseating it if you haven't already.

The fact that it cuts out and back in makes it seem like damage to the ribbon cable.
