Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, but the help section says 'If you require help regarding the site, chats or forums, post in here.' I need help on my GBA SP.
Here is what it does:
I turn it on.
Light comes on, and so does sound.
Screen Stays White; but it flickers certain screens, such as The 'Ruby Version' Screen with Groundon underneath. Sometimes it flicks The GameBOY Advance Screen at the very beginning a few times, like at different spots. All of the times, only half of the normal screen comes on. Eventually, different color pixels come on, then it slowly turns white.
I can enter the actual game like I usually do, but I can't see anything.
Can anyone help me? It sucks that this happend because I was so close at catching Latios!
I did everything I could think of;
Blow into the SP
Blow into the game
Try a different game
Take the battery out
Lightly hit it a few times
Nearly chuck it out of my window and etc.
Any Ideas what I do?

Maybe your SP is.....well...
I once wrote:

Well, if your GBA isnt working, I guess it's Toilet Time.

I think your SP needs to go to the Great Beyond. Either that, or something in one of your games screwed it up.

Try using your Ruby version in another Gameboy, and if it screws that one up, it's your game. If it doesn't it's your GBASP.

I think I know what happened.

My friend had her gameboy on the floor once, and she stepped on the screen, and it turned black and white in the middle, and she couldn't see what she was playing. Is there any cracks in your screen? It might have been stepped on. :(

Or it might have been that you dropped the the Sp to many times,and you ended up breaking one of the plasma crytals inside( if that is what it is called I can't remeber at the moment).I would just stop using it now before it ends up frying the games you are playing on it. That could end up to you destroying the memory on your games,I would go to the nearest game store and check it out.Or you can call this number*Latios runs over to get Gamecube,oh wait the number is also behind my SSBM instructional Manual.

Uh, I doubt a screen problem is going to effect his games. (I'm assuming its a screen problem.)

As Latios said, though, its probably best to contact Nintendo. You may need a screen replacement or something.

Or you can buy a new gameboy. My friend ended up buying a new GBA when hers broke.
