For problems with Gamebuino itself, NOT your project
by Tobi » Sat Mar 28, 2015 3:57 pm
Hello,
I think my Gamebuino is broken
I can't turn it on. I have loaded the battery a few hours. But if I want to turn the Gamebuino without USB connection on: Nothing happens.
If I connect is with USB and I turn the GB on, the lights are flickering. Sometimes I see the menu with some pixels. But then it is flickering again and the screen is blank.
What can I do? I see that the on/off Button was on, before I load the battery again. Perhaps the battery is broken? (I have nothing here to solder for e.g. a new battery).
Thanks from Germany!

Have you tried holding down C for some time while turning it on and then leaving it in the on position for like a min or so?

Hey,
I'm sorry to hear you have trouble with you Gamebuino. It stopped working for no apparent reason ? Can you check the battery voltage with a voltmeter ? Does it turn on when it's plugged in ?

Hey rodot, don't worry!
I don't used the Gamebuino for a few month. Now I want to play some new games. Want to turn it on, nothing happens. At the first time I was thinking the battery is empty. But I have loaded it some hours :/
When I plugged the USB cable in and turn the GB on, the screen and battery led is flickering.
But ... what can I do now?

Can you check the battery voltage ? Please answer me through the online shop so we can find a solution. I want to make sure each Gamebuinian has a nice experience with his/her console
