I didn't think it would effect the nomad's ability to send an AV signal out of that port though, am I wrong? I get no audio or video out of that port.
    Yeah that broken trace takes video to the av connector, you'll have to install a tiny jumper wire from the through-hole to the pin where you have the wire attached.

    Darn I was worried about that. Which through hole? I'm including a close-up. Do I solder a jumper from the little hole between the text TP244 and TP241 to the pin?

    Thanks

    Nevermind lol. I just tried it and now I have video and audio out through the RF switch... So that problem is all sorted. Now I've just gotta get this screen sorted out. Not so sure what could be wrong with the driver or how to troubleshoot it now...
