Hey everyone,

I just swapped my small New Nintendo 3DS's top screen. It was going slightly yellow and I just wanted to test out the IPS screen. Previously had a TN panel, now IPS top.

I was just wondering if there was anyone who has a small New 3DS with top IPS and bottom TN panel who could dump their hwcal0 and hwcal1 .dat files?

Also I noticed that in 3D, although it works fine 80% of the time, sometimes I see a double image. I went to Super Stable 3D and reset the settings as well, did the battery trick @TurdPooCharger mentioned and it's still not fixed, although I've used it maybe for 10 minutes max.

One more thing I noticed is that the screen is a bit darker, not as bright compared to the TN panel. I'm guessing this is due to the different calibration/gamma differences between the screens? I'd appreciate any help in regards to getting the system looking/performing it's best again.


Thank you.

Wow, can you post some pictures? Really curious about how it ended up like.
Side by side compared to my dual TN N3DSXL, the colours seem more vibrant. Definitely notice a difference.

    Kind of hyped about the new ally finally a portable with full m.2 support
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Kinda reminds me of a life lesson in the movie "Bronx Tale". Guy1 owes another, guy2 $10 and the guy2 keeps chasing guy1 around the city trying to get his money back, till someone tells him, "stop, you got off easy, its only $10. That guy will never bother you again or ask you for money again, so take it as a win."

    Insurance is a thing adults have to blow off
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Insurance is one those things you pay all your life for, no questions asked, all is fine, they take your money. And as soon as you make a claim or something happens, they never want to payout or help, just fight you on everything if it cost them any of your money.
