NO backlight on the psone screen

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

It's probably just a bad LCD tube light. If you are portablizing, just run an LED mod, or you can buy a new tube light; I think I may have one somewhere, but I highly recommend the LED mod. Saves a lot of batt life.
