I have both of these handhelds and am trying to decide which to get rid of and which to keep for emulation. The Go already has custom firmware and a 128gb SD card but it loses connection from time to time because of a poorly connected ribbon cable. The 1001 is on stock firmware and needs a new battery.

    I can’t advise on what to keep and what to get rid of because I say “keep everything and get the parts to fix it,” but with that in mind:

    Bruh that ribbon cable, have you opened it up and tried to reset it? You can probably save it!

      The trouble with it is, it’s secured to the SD card adapter with conductive tape. I think the tape is losing its adhesion and I don’t know if I want to take a stab at soldering the ribbon cable to the adapter instead.
