      These "screws" are potentiometers.
      When the shoulder buttons of my DSi stopped working I tried to open the case to fix it myself and mistook these two for actual screws. I ended up damaging the screen as the quality got a lot fuzzier now with a transparent grayish circle in the middle. Turning the potentiometer screws helped momentarily (making the picture really saturated and colorful) before turning bad again shortly after, sometimes the colors even inverted or almost vanished completely.
      So if anyone intends to mess with these two "screws" I advise to be very careful and only turn them very slightly

      Vasko Games I mean every ds was badly built when I came to the hinges. Remember the gold link between world 3ds? I was sure it was top quality since it was a collectors item, but the hinge still broke a few months in. It’s my fault for playing around with a collectors item like it was just a regular ds, but it shows that hinges were always a problem with the longevity of a ds. Strange that my flip phones never broke at the hinges and I would always snap that thing out like a badass.

    I used to work in small electronics repair shop years ago & we always ordering parts/broken electronics on eBay…I wouldn’t be surprised if he ordered it off eBay (from China with the free shipping) honestly…(I learned a good portion of my small electronics repair skills working there & watching tutorials was a big part of it.)
    Repairing things can be intimidating at first but watching others do the repair and then following along is one of the best ways I’ve found to learn!
    Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t reconnect everything properly in your DS especially with it being mod-ed.

    Having dug into a few ds systems:
    Ds #1: sounds like he either couldn't plug in the top screen ribbon cable completely (admittedly somewhat tricky), or he damaged the port it plugs into (really fragile and easy to do)
    Thr pink ds: there's actually a plastic screen or lens over the top lcd. He likely left whatever plastic covering it came with as your old screen protector may have been difficult to salvage. Also the wait time way very likely due to him ordering the case from a Chinese based seller, further supported by the cheap look. I still couldnt say what the pink screen is about for sure. It may have to deal with the capture card as I have never dealt with those.
    All in all this guy either didnt know what he was doing or could have been way more upfront.
