Here we go.... (48G fixing and MEMORY UPGRADE)

RE: Here we go.... (48G fixing and MEMORY UPGRADE)
Now, here are the results after following Mark's and Han's tips, although actually, not quite.

I did check the connectivity with the tabs that Mark pointed out. Seems like actually on the underside of the PCB there are already contacts to the ground plane. But I did also check that the twist tabs contacted the copper pads.

However, at this point, the tabs and pads have been worn away quite a bit from all the trial and error. I am not sure how long more they will last.

I also didn't manage to use Han's tip about clamping the LCD. Couldn't find anything appropriate to make the "LCD sandwich" and don't have clamps anyway (not for that small size).

So, after QUITE SOME TIME (maybe 2 hours?) of jiggling around, I pretty much just wanted to call it quits, because it's really not easy. I also had to use a camera lens air blower to get the fiberglass dust away from the LCD connector (while having the PCB obstructing my view and the air blower...).

All in all, pretty darn frustrating.

So then finally, I decided, heck, just put the PCB back in and call it a night.

THAT'S when this happened:
