Title pretty much, my brand new deck arrived today and I wasted no time loading up all my games and linux desktop apps onto it. I was pretty much firmly sold on it after having the opportunity to experience one 😁
Out of excitement I also impulse ordered a full replacement shell in advance, thinking I was prepared to also tackle the screen. Turns out I was wrong - the screen is so well stuck down that I couldn’t get it to budge with a 2kw hot air gun. The battery was also getting quite warm from the heat.
Pretty much ended up putting everything back to the original casing before I damaged something, and settled for just changing the back cover instead 😢
Maybe I’ll give the replacement shell another shot in future, but not too sure to be honest.
Anyone managed to do a full shell swap? How did you find it?
Should just be able to disconnect the screen and leave it attached to the front part of the shell. If i recall correctly
I thought they was a screw or something behind the screen I dont fully remember tbh it was kinda a blur when I did it
