    The case of the case.

    Hey guys, I'm going to try to make a more refined revision tomorrow night. I'm hoping for it to end up looking more like this: As for the shroud, that's something I can't measure, since this is a Pandora case and no new nub parts came with it for me to compare it with. If this does somehow...

    The case of the case.

    Here's my first attempt at the 6-button mockup. The buttons are slightly out of place, but even this feels pretty good when I use it: http://t.co/2smkj5kjob -God Ginrai

    Neo900 - Dying fast - GDC dropped support

    I passed on the Droid 4 because the keyboard was a step backwards from the Droid 3. Wish they would come out with the 5th milestone device already. -God Ginrai

    SoC: Back and forth!

     Less than ideal, sure. However, the "ideal" is the best of the best situation. That's why it is called the ideal. Unless you have some real OS experience with libhybris, I don't think you'd be able to tell us how far from that ideal it really is. People can't grasp what isn't true. EvilDragon...

    Nah, we should use Gundanium Alloy. :P We could even put a V-fin on it. -God Ginrai

    Screw decisions for assembly

    I didn't say you said "better". I said you thought it was better. You showed that reasoning when you suggested using Phillips over Pozidrive. You chose Phillips over Pozi because of specific advantages you believed it had over Pozi. When something has advantages over something, it is called...

    Screw decisions for assembly

     I don't see how there is ambiguity of the correct tool to use with Pozidrive. Even though you can fit a Phillips into it, it doesn't look at all like a Phillips screw.  You essentially said that right here: Your exact words were "potential confusion".  Right here:    Good. You're wasting my...

    Screw decisions for assembly

    Yes, but the difference is that more people would have to spend to get a driver to open their device if you use hex. With Pozi, you're given a choice: 1) Do it for cheap (or nothing) with a Phillips head, but risk possibly damaging the device or screws. 2) Buy the correct driver and experience...

     And? What's your point? Everyone who doesn't have the right hex driver will have to purchase one. For Pozi, only the ones who want to be careful will have to spend extra money. I never said there would be no price increase, and neither did WizardStan or others. However, the amount they...

    Screw decisions for assembly

     Phillips isn't guaranteed to break your case or screws. A rock is.  No, because the only time I've needed those wrenches, they've been provided. You said "I don't know about other people". I was letting you know that there were "other people" who did not own sets of allen wrenches. I only know...

    Screw decisions for assembly

    That's elitist, and honestly, you shouldn't be making the decisions based on that. The only allen wrenches I have are left over from IKEA sets. And likely, none of those would fit the screws that would need to be used for the Pyra. You are making no sense here. You support Phillips as the best...

    Screw decisions for assembly

     Hex is common, but it comes in different sizes. Unlike Phillips, which can fit many sizes at the same time, Hex only fits one size with any specific hex driver. I think you're missing the point I'm making. Yes, Phillips is bad. But look at this: Screw Type | Likelihood of owning one of those...

    Screw decisions for assembly

     The problem is that if the posts are separate, they take up more space than if they were together due to the way the forum formats posts. This leads to more scrolling, and more pages in a topic. It started in the "possible soc updates" topic. I instigated the argument originally by calling you...

    But isn't Phillips even more readily available than hex? And by using Pozidrive, anyone can use Phillips with it, but they can acquire a Pozidrive Driver if they want to decrease the chances of damaging something. -God Ginrai

     Special is an imaginitive way to describe what you did. I can do that, too. When I see it's about something I don't care about, I can start reading the next section in their post. So you admit that attacking me previously on the multiposting issue in a topic other than the topic where we were...

     It's funny that you made that comment, because honestly, it has been feeling to me for a while now that you are specifically targetting me, which would make you the troll. On to your reasons: We have exposed screw wells on the Pandora. It's not like that makes much of a difference. Also, there...

    You have not given any good reason to prove it a bad idea. On the contrary, the only viable con anyone has suggested with regards to the nut and bolt idea is the one that spud42 pointed out about the different bolt lengths. Although, I am not entirely sure that we wouldn't have different screw...

    Example from Japan: Better Hinge and Screen Integration

    I don't really have any comments either way about ekianjo's screen idea. However, I'm honestly very surprised that the Shoulder buttons are the only problem people are noticing with the hinge ekianjo suggested. There's a much bigger problem there. The whole backside is one piece that is not...
