Joystick mod for ALL Sony Ericsson joysticks! (pics of the new one!)

[maxh2]

You've likely seen my other thread on joystick caps:

Well, I've made some more with a new design, and the ebay listing is:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Joystick-cap-fit...QQcmdZViewItem

I decided to start a new thread because the old one kind of centers around it being a mod for the w800i, and it turns out that they fit the k750i joystick as well. And that means that these joystick caps will fit just about all of the current and upcoming Sony Ericsson joystick phones out there!

I was browsing the pics of Sony Ericsson phones at http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson-phones-19.php and it looks like all phones with joysticks use one of two models: the one the w800i uses, or the one the k750i uses.
Models with the w800i joystick include: w800i, d750, and w700
Models with the k750i joystick include: k750i, k790, k800, k510, k310, and the old k700, k600, k300, k508, k500, j210, j300, j200, and f500i

Here's some pics of my phone with the new cap on it, and some pics of the k750 with the old cap on it (thanks to Blakthorn!), as well as a k750 joystick from cnn.cn with the new joystick on it:

nice job.......what about the w810? it has "play" and "pause" icon there. Could you keep that visible somehow?

[orion]

the w810 uses a d-pad, not a joystick...

maxh, just ordered one

[Lordkifar]

U won't regret this order ....A very different feeling with the joystick cap.

[Phat^Trance]

looks really nice

[Kricket]

wow - i saw the other thread but didnt comment there - i just want to say - EXCELLENT job - both of those look FANTASTIC - if i still had my w800 - i would order one up in a heartbeat

kudos

nice job indeed!! too bad I sold both my k750i and w800i......

To all of you who placed orders this weekend: Your caps were picked up by the mailman this morning (Monday). International destinations typically take 4-7 days, and it seems that U.S. shipments average 2-3 days.

Let me know how you like them!

Hi do you charge $1 as well to ship it to Singapore?

Oh yeah one more do u need any glue or something to make sure it's in place? I need to find out so that i can get it out without damaging the joystick when i sell it in future...

[christomapher]

I like the look for the K750i, looks good.

How often do you drop your phone?

[maxh2]

Yes, $1.00 will get it to Singapore. You don't need glue, they are tight enough to stay on just by pushing (for the most part, anyways). I have a w800i, and I've put joysticks on and off countless times without any damage. I've only put one on a k750 joystick once, so I don't know much about how they hold up. Perhaps someone with one can comment?

Christomapher, I never drop my phone; sometimes when I'm away from home I get really hungry, though!

Heh heh, JK, it's not my k750 in the pics.

The K750i IS a delicious-looking candybar

[DIXIEBELLE]

Definitely a great addition to these phones. I have the new one and it fits terrifically and is really sweet looking too. It just makes it so much easier to use the joystick with my silicon case on it.

I got this one for my phone today, and it fit perfect. I had a problem with the other version, but this one fits excellent. Looks awesome. Thanks man.

[Cryptik]

Just got it 2day... it took a few seconds to get it straight.. n 1 gentle push n voila its in.... wow.. its a New experience altogether.... amazing mod.... MUST HAVE FOR THE JOYSTICK USER....

thanks Max
