Hi! I modded my GBA in fall of 2017 (40 pin) and have been using the white tab screen with a type b ribbon adapter. It looked good enough to use for me but after a while I started to get a bit annoyed about the visible lines when moving up and down, I think that has to do with interlacing? So I bought the type A adapter instead, and proceded with the mod to clear up the image from looking all washed out etc. (Removing components and putting a jumper cable between two points I've forgotten the name of).
I did this so that I could use the system's potentiometer to adjust the display, and I got those lines to disappear almost completely, so I was really happy with the results.
Now though, I've noticed these faint lines, they look kind of like irregulations in brightness or something, and they appear every now and then, after the system's been on for a couple of minutes. They move smoothly up and down, and they are too horizontal.
I've tried to capture it on video but it's unfortunately very hard to catch on video, so hopefully my explanation is good enough.
Anybody know of a fix for this? Would Bennvenn's voltage regulator board be an idea?
Thanks!

I've tried covering the back of the display with electrical tape but it didn't improve the issue unfortunately.
