another joystick solution

here is my solution
i have used 2 sided sticker(probably 3m but i'm not sure), a little thick one
cut the sticker about the hole in the joystick button
it shouldn't fit perfect, it must be a little smaller than the hole
stick it in the hole and place the button
i have used all the solutions explained here (cleaning, wd40, light sensor...) but none of them worked except this
also don't forget to clean the parts

actually i can't do it because i need to reopen the housing for this
but i can explain it in more detail
when you open the housing and open the joystick part of keypad, you'll see a joystick device and the button
you must remove the joystick button and at the back, you'll see a hole like in the pictures(don't worry about removing, just pull the button)
just cut a piece of two sided sticker(which must be a little smaller than the hole) and stick it in the hole
sticker should be thick one, probably thinner ones will not work
and don't forget to clean both device and button, i have used a lcd screen cleaner
then place the button back to the joystick device and close the housing
if it's not working well, try smaller sticker
hope this helps and fell free to ask...
also sorry for my english, it's not my native language

- You can see the streaks from the sealer
- The sides of it are starting to chip :/
I use used Red Kyrlon Spray paint which is a GREAT brand to use the color is vibrant and looks very good. The mistake I made is not using a spray on sealer, the sealer I used left streaks on the paint.

try car paint spray.. can't remember what we use to use back then with my qtek 8080(hTC),, but we are painting it from one side to the other, light spray layered then let it dry then 3x we are doing light spraying then dry..

I would have to agree. I used to work for a prototyping company and I would suggest sanding all of the red of and starting with a primer.

As others have hinted (and you pointed out yourself) the paint job is lacking but the design is cool.
May I suggest you paint the red, and then also paint the black? That way, both will be painted so the texture and gloss will match better.

I like the mod alot!
But i've got a question, could you please make a step by step guide cause i am gifted with two left hands

2)Open a new project of size 3 inches width and 6 ines hieght and resolution of 300 pixel/inch.now using the front layout and back layout given below edit ur desired skin. you can google it for skins but i have used http://www.vinylskins.com/ for source
3) now using photoshop edit that skin to fit layout . BE AWARE dont cover the harware keys area .
4) After completing ur skin save it as jpeg.
5) Now Print that layout on glossy paper which is easily available in local shops and digital printing shops.
TIP:- Use 3M brand stickers because it does not leave any residue on the phone while removing the skin
You better print those skins on digital printing shops because they have a good quality of prints

S View cover and taking pics

Did we lose the ability to take pictures with the cover flipped all the way back? This is what happens when I use the flash...

And before anyone says anything, this was right after my kitten thought she was Tarzan... lol

anybody?

Did you take off the little layer of film that's on top of the camera lens? And also (I'm assuming that your referring to a S-View Case) you can always just pictures with the case completely closed through the S-View window.
It's never gonna look that great if your taking the picture through the plastic opening in the case - smudges from hands, dust, etc.
EDIT: Just saw that you said you were using flash - the light from the flash is just gonna reflect back at the camera lens and blur your photo out like it did there. Has that not always been the case? It should look decent enough if you don't use flash.

Come to think of it I don't ever recall using the flash with the cover all the way back. Tried the same pic with my wife's S5 with S-View and got the same result... oh well, better late than never lol

Just don't cover ur camera with the s view cover. Problem solved
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA Free mobile app

I notice when I take a picture with the s view window when it's flipped closed the picture is smaller resolution than a picture when the flip is open. Is there a way to change this?

Sorry about hi-jacking your thread.

[Cover] Custom Nokia 8 XDA Cover for 3D-printing

Since the official Nokia 8 covers still aren't available anywhere..
I made a custom cover, printed it and now optimized it further.
The cover is available in 3D-Printable STL format.

no scanner. just a caliper.
to create the 3d-models of the phone and cover, i used solidworks 2017.
i printed it with a objet 30 pro and the material was verowhite.
will print it in veroclear too and show pictures later.
material thickness i used 1.4mm (i can adjust this if needed for other printers).
if someone else prints it with different printers, please show pictures and report about stability.

I like the cover. How did you make a physical copy of it? xD
Well this means u can even customized other stuff such as maybe adding graphics or writing names?
Pardon me cause i have no idea how u do what u did xD

Thanks for that.. I'm going to print it now on an Anet A8 I'll let you know how it comes out..
Ill probably try PLA and some cheap TPU I have.

Awesome, thanks for the sharing, shall try the print on an M3D micro and see how it goes.

Hey, first of all thanks for a awesome cover model.
Too bad it is reeeeeally painful to print. :crying:
My printer is now starting to print it for the sixth time. So far this one is the best try (now at 7%).
I am printing it on its back to get nice flat surface on the outside without need for any support (so I hope).
I couldn't get the print start nicely for the first five prints and I thought it was because my filament was not suitable for any reason or the setting didn't were off. I am printing with eSun Luminous GreenPLA.
I tinkered with speeds and stuff and managed to get that first layer to stick really nice. But once it started to do second layer prints started to string and did not stick.
That's when I started to take a better look at the model itself after slicing. And I found the problem, after the first layer (note that I am printing at 0.15mm layer height) second layer starts printing its exterior lines on basicly nothing and this goes for first 0.45mm. After that the model is pretty much fine and does print on last layer, but I still see some similar problems, but I think it should still work.
To solve this problem I tried and cut first 0.45mm from the model leaving back thickness still somewhere around 1.5mm or so. It should work.
Now printer is doing its job steadily and so far so good, 10% done.
Ill post again when I know how this works
