I used a regular hairdryer (with one of the heads that focuses the airflow) on the medium setting. The rest of the tools I just used what came with the new case-- it comes with a big locking suction cup and some thin plastic cards (think credit cards but thinner) for sliding under the edge of the screen to separate the adhesive.
Thanks! Maybe check around phone repair shops maybe you could pay someone to do it.
I’ve never worked on a phone tbh so no point of comparison. It was much easier than I expected, I just followed the directions. Heated the screen for about a minute around the edges with my hair dryer, put the included suction cup on and pulled straight out just enough to get these thin plastic cards wedged in. Had to run those around the edges to cut through / peel up the adhesive then I juat pulled and the screen came off. There was a little residual adhesive so scraping that off took some time since I wanted it to be nice and flush.
I prefer frosted personally (100% clear is too ‘prison tech’ for me lol) but hopefully these companies will start putting more options out there. Jsaux doesn’t even have all the colors for the frontplate yet that they do for the back (I think the green would look great for example). Honestly I would love a piss yellow like the death stranding ps5 controller
It’s actually a cheap little mechanical keyboard I picked up specifically for my deck, I think it was $25 on Amazon. I’m pretty happy with it. And once I had it and I had the plan of doing the case swap I knew I needed some orange on the deck itself to match 🤩. This kb is actually wired tho the photo is a staged lie hahah
Thank you!! It was definitely kind of draining it’s a long process. but look how pretty it is :D I had just the backplate on before and that itself is a pretty cool little mod!
some more pix here but I’m not much of a photographer lol https://imgur.com/a/5lIQvSA
also shoutout to https://lemmy.world/u/G0ldenSp00n@lemmy.jacaranda.club (no idea if thats the right way to link to a person on here) for answering my questions, some helpful stuff from them!
60fps at native res. Settings can all be on low. That said plenty of games are playable at 30 or 40fps
My deck is for indies, old games and mid-tier games. AAA games tend to suck anyway lol
Everyone knows you can customize controls per-game, yet a lot of people don’t realize you can also change the desktop controls. The settings are only available within steam in desktop mode. For example I switched which triggers do right & left click. Also by default the trackpad scrolls in a circle, you can change this to up and down.
You should just remove the thermal pad… It will function identically to the stock back with no weirdly hot metal part.
Vanderpump Rules! This is 100% the answer.
This is the way to go. Personally I prefer the glossy screen over the matte anyway.
Thanks for the info 😊 I’ll probably make a post detailing my experience once I do it
Hey just curious, how was your experience with removing and re-attaching the screen? This is the part that makes me most nervous. Did you remove all the old adhesive? And what did you use? Did you scratch any of the black bezel (I have seen that happen in a few videos). How flush does the screen sit? Sorry for all the questions but I ordered the Jsaux one so I will be doing this myself in a few weeks and I am anxious haha
I’ve just done the same. Are you using an android client? Is there something very similar to RIF?
The cable is from Temu? Lol, it’s the cable. Case solved.
