LX.NET Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Candle, I really hope you manage to get this finished. It is the holy grail for the Lynx hardware. Even if only to the layout/sketches/design phase, it would mean that your work doesn't get lost. Are there ways for us to encourage you to carry on (other than the obvious worshipping and eternal fame)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordKraken Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I'm just a simple reader and dont usually post here but I have to say this is really impressive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmetal88 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 That looks awesome. I'm really hoping I'll have some spare cash when/if you put together a kit to sell for this. My Lynx kind of needs a new LCD anyway (I have a half-dead pixel that's been bugging me for a while), and this looks like the best replacement I could possibly get.

Guitari Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Just to add my support once more. I have a lynx model 2 with a tempermental screen. This would be perfect for me! We're all eagerly waiting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Now that I think about it.. wouldn't using the Lynx for a joystick mess with the VGA connection? Any plans for an external joystick port? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoltan Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Man, I am extremely far from being rich but this is the kind of thing I would buy immediately if it was available as a DIY kit or something. I really hope you will have the time to finish this project. The main reason I don't use my Lynx as much as I would like to is the screen quality of it.

the.golden.ax Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Is that one of those parking LCDs that people hack for Nomad LCD swaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 this is just ordinary module you can buy on ebay cheap, nothing adopted or hacked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 this is just ordinary module you can buy on ebay cheap, nothing adopted or hacked Would you share the link or model number? Looks the same as the ones from the parking unit. It would be good to have a better (cheaper) source for Nomad mods as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 plus the parking ones for the Nomad utilise the existing AV output rather than a ribbon connector..so far as I've been led to understand. (This is why I never got my Nomad modified..doubt over whether it would be true RGB.) Maybe Candle can go on and offer a true LCD replacement for the Nomad!!
