"1st of all who want's a dongle" all iphone users in a 500 mile radius: Edit: ok, I see the comments have gotten toxic, with arguing, please stop the arguing, what I said was just a joke...
Wow, that looks fantastic! Great job. Thanks for the shout out too! I think yours ended up looking much cleaner than mine too. For what it's worth though, I don't think a dremel would have given you a cleaner result but it would likely have made it a bit easier. One thing that's worth noting is that even though the mod uses a four pin headphone jack, the console will not work with four pin headphones. At least, mine doesn't unless they are half inserted and then you only get mono sound out of one side.
Hey makho, this is putting me off trying this mod. Any ideas as to how this can be solved to work with all headphones? Most have a mic on the cable now and 4 pins. Don’t want to have to carry special headphones for my sp
@@TimdeVille You'd need a physical switch to detect headphones. That's all the fourth pin does in this implementation. By inserting a three pin TRS plug in the four pin TRRS jack, we are triggering the speaker cutoff by shorting the fourth pin (the ground) to the third pin (also the ground in TRS but the microphone in TRRS). Alternatively, you can use a TRRS splitter and just leave the microphone plug dangling but I understand not wanting to use a dongle. If you cannot find a suitable contact switch (and I couldn't but I didn't look *that* hard) that depresses automatically when headphones are inserted, a simple SPST switch that you toggle manually would work too.
makho cool. Thanks for the reply. I’m new to all this do I’ll have to do some searching. I don’t even know what a SPST switch is so I’ll look it up but would be amazing to use any headphones. Are you ok just using 3 pin headphones then?
Never had the SP, I have been modding my OG advance. If I ever get one this is a super simple mod, and I am glad you showed this. Cheap and easy, just awesome!
So... if there was space in the case for a headphone jack, couldn't have nintendo just put one from the beginning.. sincer they were able to put one in the micro which is even smaller.
The Micro doesn't have a link port or the little switch in the cartridge slot that tells the GBA when a GB or GBC game is inserted so even if it has a headphone jack it still sacrificed other stuff. Nintendo could have made extra space in the SP for a headphone jack but they just didn't care enough to do it. And it was extra money for them from people who bough the dongle that cost pennies to make.
2 years late, and my guess is simply because they knew all the weird lil companies that existed at the time would create headphones that use one of the two ports at the top
I have a headphone jack adaptor for the SP and brought the AGS101 back in 2005. It's good to see the modding scene adding these features now. I often capture audio from my GBA to an audio recorder.
Z3DT as an joke I get it, but it has been 3 years now and every mayor brand (of who some of them made fun of apple) lacks a headphone jack. How Ironic.
Watching you do all this mods and repairs really makes me want to try my hand at modding a gameboy for myself, the GBA is my favourite handheld console of all time, so why not make it even better right? Thank you very much Elliot, keep up the great work!
when I first got my game boy witch was a month ago I fell in love with it I couldn't get enough of it then I found your channel and then I fell in love with your channel. and good job installing the head phone jack
Do nintendo solder everything in, fix everything badly with used parts, wipe drives and overcharge for everything? Also Samsung are removing headphone jacks now...
Niiice! I just received an SP today and was going to do just the IPS mod. Luckily I had the right type of headphone jacks laying around and Elliot here making this great video. Personally I like the way you drilled the hole since I personally dont have a drill so it gave me an idea on how to do this. Thanks!!

I f**king love this channel, you give me so many ideas for projects, maybe one day I'll have the confidence to get in front of a camera and share some with others
yo elliott, thank you for making so many videos about GBA builds. i've been watching your vids for the last month and a half on repeat to get this process down in my head. just last week, after a lot of tinkering i was able to replace the shell, screen and buttons out of my old AGS-001 and i swear to god it feels like i've like resurrected something from the grave. i definitely couldn't have experienced this without your help.
Beautiful mod my good sir. Don't be ashamed as to the methods or technique you choose to operate a hand tool. Were I come from that's called ingenuity!
I'd like to upgrade my gbc and gba with stereo speakers. I guess I should do part of what you did and connect that to a tiny amplifier. Then find a place for speakers
People did that with other gamboys already. You need a 5v power supply in your gameboy tho. This is usually archieved by first modding it with a LiPo Battery. Honestly I dont think that it is possible in an Advance SP, you just dont have enough space inside for the bluetooth board.
I have been really enjoying these videos recently as I want to fix a broken Gameboy that I got from one of my mum's friends with her old games. She has been trying to have a baby for a while now but her boyfriend has a disease that makes it very difficult for the baby to survive. I plan on fixing her old Gameboy and giving it back to her once they succeed so she can play her old games with her kid someday. I will use these videos as a resource to help me with that.
Omg thank you soooo much for explaining the motherboard difference for C25. I’d watched a few other videos but my board was different and I couldn’t find C25. So I was trying to figure it out. And sure enough you explained exactly where to find it depending on board differences and that saved me because I’ve been searching for ages lol
Then there is me. With my pair of in-ear headphones (bought in around 2008/2009) with a built in double connector. One classic 3.5 mm jack and the Game Boy Advance SP dedicated "audio connector".
Her hee, dig the demonstration. Ninty definitely made a mistake not adding this to the original. To their credit they rectified it on all following devices.
Fun fact, the original DS shares a charging port with the Gba SP and the headphone adapter actually works on the DS as well. Obviously it's never needed since you have a headphone jack built in, but it works and even both Jacks can be used at once if desired for some reason
You are a god. I bought the cable that was released to let you use both earphones and the adapter at the same time because I always prefer to use earphones and it was trash. Always kept cutting out. If only my GBA SP still worked but that thing's a paper weight now. I always feel like I should get into this type of stuff but never know where to start. I'd really like to try and make my own mp3 player since I need a new one and can't seem to find a decent one that has much storage space.
That placement is way better than mine lol. I have mine near the right trigger and can't use both effectively at the same time. I also soldered all my connections on the charging pins.
Elliot (I hope I spell ur name right lol), thanks so much for your videos. They're really something to keep me entertained during the lockdown. Moreover, you have made me buy a Game Boy Advance :D Shoutout from Russia
Hello, Thank you so much for making this video! This looks like a super fun and easy project for someone who hasn't soddered before, I am going to get the materials and try doing this to one of my GBA SPs! I also would love to have a headphone jack on mine! Again, thank you!!
The bigger question is: Why do you not have a dremel already? They are awesome, especially for IPS and AGS-101 mods. In some of your videos you spent houres cutting the shell, which would be done in 5 min. with a Dremel. Also considering how many mods you have done and probably will do it is a really good investment!
I managed to get mine to work thanks to this video. Although I stupidly put on the right side under the power switch it's not going anywhere but it's hard to power on and off now lol
