I Just Beamed For The First Time!

LTE to GSM. I feel sexy!
Very cool. I love the backward motion as it disapears from your GN to your buddies. We Beamed a couple times, always smiling.
There really is no way to stop myself from sounding like a 15 year old is there?

Beam me up Scotty

Hope you wore protection.

LEGO Photosphere Maker V4.0

Hi guys,
I decided that some things could be improved on the machine.
Turned out that my new idea was a complete FAIL.
So I wen't back to the drawingboard and this is what I came up with
It uses much less parts (again). And it's way more compact.
It's not that modular anymore, but who cares. It will now fit in a bag easily anyway.
See it in action in the vid below and check out the pics for some details.
Pics of the old builds are kept for comparison
Cheers,
Daan

It does yes. The photosphere feature works best when te camera lens is panning and tilting around itself

Haha, all in all it took me about three or four hours on the first build I think.
And about an hour or two to finish the upgrade with the tilting-motor at the bottom.
Lego is easy stuff to work with

That's very nice man. I would love to make one if I can purchase those Lego parts.

Amazing!

nice work

Almost flawless. Everything meshed together great with the exception of the lamp shade. Amazing

Just finished updating the device.
It runs a lot more stable now
Check out the new pics in the OP
I'll try to get some new results soon.
Been sick for the past few days.

edit: The compass is acting up I think. I can't get it to take good photspheres. Really strange. Anyone has experience with this?
It's rotating towards the blue dot while it's not moving, as if it's dizzy

Build 3 was panning too slow so had too speed it up a bit.
For some strange reason it got dizzy when moving too slow
More results!

[Q] What to look for during purchase

Hey guys. I am about to get one soon. Prolly next week after my OtterBox gets here. What should I look for on the device in terms of deformalities?
I read that some people were getting crappy devices, what should I look for to prevent that? That way if the device I get in store has any flaws to it, i can complain right away instead of waiting till i get home and such.
Thanks all!

Second unit definitely better! Will take into consideration when purchasing! Thanks man!
Anyone else have anything they'd like to add?

Maybe go into the Q&A section too. I've read some have had pink tint on the bottom half of screen. One had pink lines. Another had scratches on home button.

Read that too. Was hoping more could elaborate on that. Obviously the scratching on home button was just poor handling. But about the pink tint, pink lines, that's not a hardware defect on all devices right? Just on some of them? How can i reproduce this effect in store?

Try going to a white background. Like the google home page and look in the corners for pink blobs

You can dial *#0*# and check for dead pixels, speakers, sensors, etc, using Samsung diagnostics.

So I finally got one... been two days and I absolutely love this thing. No issues what so ever!

dbrand Skins

Has anyone heard what is up for the Nexus 5 over at dbrand? I'm sure they have a product in development. I own several skins from them and they are top quality for sure.
http://dbrand.com/

The device hasn't even been announced neither released. But I'm pretty sure dbrand will make a Nexus 5 skin. They did not disappoint with their Nexus 4 and HTC One skins that's for sure

Robots are working on the N5 skins =)

Yup they have. http://dbrand.com/models/nexus-5.php

N5 skins are on the way. Considering the N4 skins thread had 512,000 views and over 4400 responses, we should all be in for a LOTR journey on this thread.
There are a few elements that go into making a skin, I'll outline them below and give an ETA. Many tasks are done concurrently, we have many Robots.
1. Measure the device, draw the vector, cut the skin, apply the skin, measure the offset, repeat around 1,000x to achieve a flawless fit.
2. Cut a few hundred skins for the pre-orders and contemplate a few thousand more for the upcoming month.
3. Shoot and edit a how to apply tutorial video. Very high production values.
4. Shoot 14 skin styles in 5 angles on 2 devices (plus post-editing: colour correction, dust removal). You do the math.
5. Create renderings for 14 skin styles, 4 pieces (front/back/left_frame/right_frame), 2 devices, with/without nexus cutouts. More math?
6. About 80 computing hours of .jpeg/.png and compression on all the assets created.
7. Code all that sh*t on the site.
8. Hit hard on the marketing campaigns we planned out weeks ago.
ETA is (realistically) Monday morning for the pre-order. We'll ship everything but the screen protectors on Wednesday. Screen protectors will arrive shortly after.
Pricing is still TBD, but we are confirming the following coverage: Back piece with our signature "nexus" cutouts. Front piece (full picture-frame style). Frame pieces with intimidatingly-precise cutouts. Anti-glare screen protectors, fitted so that they insert into the front skin screen cutout like a puzzle piece.
I'll pop by with exclusive pre-release content once the creatorBots have worked a bit of their alchemy. So far all I can tell you is that installation is going to be a breeze. The soft-touch coating is prime for skins, and the extreme protrusion of the camera gives a reference point that is foolproof.
My name is femBot and I'll be here a lot once the release is finalized. Let me know if you have any questions. Looking forwards to this thread! Also, shout out to @can6rxw for spelling "dbrand" properly... we would have been really depressed having to look at a 500k thread a year from now that spelled it "Dbrand" or "DBrand". We appreciate this a lot more than you can comprehend.

You can skip most of those steps and just send me a few of the first ones. I'll be sure to review and post pictures. Lol.

Hey everyone!
creatorBots are right on track with the N5. It's looking fantastic. Application could not possibly be simpler. The "nexus" lettering is sexy as hell. Working out the corners on the back piece next, then it's off to the frame/front. Attached is a prototype photo.
Let me know if you have any questions!

This is just a prototype material we use when making the template skins. Takes a LOT of material to create the templates and we don't like to waste stuff that can be sold.

Yeah that's just a total psyche. As you likely already know, we enjoy toying with humans.

When previews are released Monday, would you happen to show what some skins would look like with the white Nexus 5 lettering. Wondering what a dark titanium/carbon fiber would look like with the white lettering
