I got my uConsole after a YEAR of waiting, and ... it's shit. The trackball it really bad, almost defective, doesn't register half the moves. Did anybody experience this on your trackball?

"maid" computers my ass

>open source hyper-niche product
>it's faulty
Sorry anon but you should've expected it
>>
>>102426344
just connect an external mouse, monkey Ivan.

You were supposed to buy a Maid outfit and get TOPPED first anon...

Hold on let me get a fucking dongle on top of tabletop mouse to use for a handheld device. Better yet start chiseling the code in stone see id that's compatible.
>>
>>102426540
This is pure donkey behaviour.
GET A BLUETOOTH MOUSE, THEN!
Look, all you had to do before ordering is look at its reviews on the web or ask and consult that maid computer schizo who keeps making maid computer threads, as he has one.

>>102426344
Ayy lmaoooo I just noticed it's a trackBALL, not a nipple
Goofy asf, you think the sensor is too low-res or would oiling it do something?
>>
Also you could set up "mouse with arrow keys", if the keys aren't too shit it can be smooth. Toggle it with Start or RCntrl or sum'n
>>
>>102426652
dude you're right, sure. but OPs concern was that the ball on device doesnt work as it should.

You bought some shitty handheld that's hacked up together and powered by a raspb? Kek.

USA has the highest amount of trannies in the world.
>>
>>102427992
only the whites and euros are trannies
>>
>>102428018
Brazil has the second highest amount.
niggas be zesty af
>>
>>102427952
That would be a good thing, tho. After some fiddling around you could butcher and modify it into something semi-useful.
There's inside probably some chink leftovers from some warehouse, hacked together into abomination pretending to be a handheld computer.

Brazil has been heavily influenced by white and European culture it weakened them

Do we count North Sentinel Islanders as nation? Or any other isolated tribes of Andalan and Nicobar Islands? They had contact with any outsiders very sporadically and usually it ended with violence against visitors.

>>102426344
i considered one for a bit and decided to go for a steam deck instead.
the touch keyboard steam provides is decent and if i really need a keyboard i can just use the usb port, bluetooth or kde connect to use my phone's keyboard via remote input.
i think id still like to play around with a uconsole but after reading the forums a year ago... yea. not worth the money.
>>
had an old android with a trackball, completely useless and sooner or later gets gummed up with dirt
>>
Not sure if there is any more premium chinesium but I heard you want to drop a replacement here

>>
man it seems like a neat idea but you have to use some critical thinking before you actually go out and buy one. They're shit to use and you are only going to want to read text from it if you absolutely need to, it's such a silly gimmick it's almost unbelievable.
Here, pay me so you can assemble this piece of shit
>>
>>102430279
I mean it's clearly a toy. No concern with that. It's that I expected some quality, not fuck all.
>>
>>102430131
yea came here to post this. pretty much what i did. went onto ali and ordered a bunch of trackballs and dropped a nicer one in. big improvement, but trackballs still suck. i wanna drill out the hole a bit and put one of the squircle blackberry touchpad ones in there sometime.
i just adopted to a mostly text-based workflow. with a thin 3d printed layer i put between the kb switches and rubber domes the keyboard actuation pressure is way lower too which helps a lot. it's a bit stiff stock.
>>
>>102426344
Send it back, bro. Its not worth the trouble.

Something like a Sidekick with a touch screen would be pretty nice. It would make typing and playing games a lot better.
>>
>>102426344
Works for me, but on the forum I've seen people replacing their trackball
>>
>>102431539
Didn't BlackBerry eventually switch to trackpads specifically because these things were shit?
>>
>>102431651
You mean touchpad? Yeah probably. Also I guess dust and greasy hands are really bad for these.
>>
I've got the DevTerm and yes, the trackball is totally shitty.
>>
>>102431691
>You mean touchpad?
They called it a trackpad because they were actually optical sensors.
>>
>>102431691
No it's called a trackpad, always has been.

>>102426344
Mine works ok, maybe try remounting it. I think I saw people on the forums replacing it with a better one, it's pretty cheap component.
>>
>>102426344
I felt almost the same way. They should have used some kind of trackpad. Also the keyboard was way too stiff.
I sold mine on eBay to some Saudi Arabian guy who makes more than I could ever dream of making. Not kidding. I looked him up on LinkedIn. He even paid for international shipping.
Its an expensive gimmick toy, not a computer you should expect to get any real use out of.

Can you expand on this?
>>
XIXTERS WE GOT ANOTHER ONE
>>
>>102433320
some guy on the forum said he (lol) taped 0603 surface mount resistors to the domes of each key and it helped a lot (pic)
some other guy said he'd make a STL to 3d print instead but never delivered
so i kind of just threw a picture of the keyboard down in prusaslicer and made a bunch of 0603-sized boxes over the center of each key, connected by lines and let the printer go. had to print one or two versions to get the thickness on the connectors right. i didn't save it, sorry. at least i didn't promise to lmao

i forgot the pic of the guy's 0603 hack like a genius
i'm not home now or i'd pop it apart and snap a pic of mine for you but i think you probably get the idea
