Backlit screen mod is well worth it, I done mine a recently and love it. The same screen is available for the SP, quality may not be as good as the original AGS-101 screen but its bloody good.
Also got an EZ Flash Omega flash cart, much cheaper than the Everdrive solutions and offers good enough compatibility.0 -

I remember doing the Advance mod back in the day - I think it was called the Afterburner backlight - yep Afterburner
I played a lot of Advance Wars on it back then - ahh...the memories......
Oh yeah, I remember them. Back in the days when handheld lighting was a luxury.
I had a front light kit that replaced the stock screen cover. A thick gel sat between it and the LCD to help cast the light over the screen. Took power out of the exe port.
Did the trick at the time but I'm sure if I fired it up now it would be a washed out mess
Edit - found it! Was called a Halo Light

I have the SP AGS 001 handheld
All the SPs should be 32 pin0 -

Hmm...no point keeping it so.
I'd be willing to help you out and take if off your hands - at a reduced price of course as there is no charger.
:P :P :P:D:D
It actually has a broken hinge that I had to superglue back together!
Worst feeling in the world, I closed the door to my games room and heard something hitting the floor. Went back in and my lovely charcoal AGS101 was on the ground with one of the hinges broken. Only had it a month.
The glue has held now for 5 years, so fingers crossed it continues to do so!0 -

Ouch.
My nephew was over recently and I let him play my original DS Lite - he managed to snap the hinge and it knackered the top screen.
I've a new case that's semi put on now, but I'm having trouble getting all the connections to work simultaneously (Sometime top screen works, bottom does not, then vice versa).
Need to get back to it and fix it.0 -
Dug out my 101 last night coincidentally, no bloody charger! So it went back unused on a shelf
Same, can't find my charger anywhere but I did buy a USB charging cable from aliexpress for 99cent inc shipping so should arrive around December:D
Will need to invest in a front lit display and flash cart though because no idea where the games are all gone0 -
