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

[lufia1]

these caps are ownage, i've got the one with no hole on because the orange rubber fell off. keeps lots of the dust off. perfecto

Just got mine today and here to share my initial thoughts.

Opened the envelope and was surprised to see just how to small it was. Took me about 10 tries to get it on straight (it was a lot harder then I thought it would be). Now that it is on straight and having played a few joystick intensive games I must say that if you do play a lot of games on your phone this is a must have.

Cheers!

Max. I was wondering, considering the buzz over these buttons, if you knew where your nearest Patent Office is?

Hi guys,

the joystick cap also fits on the K800i:

Sweet! I just bought one. I've been waiting to see if they would fit.

Thanks for posting the great pics confirming that they fit the K800/K790.



Also, thanks to Max for this great mod and for making so many!

Just got mine today, I got it on on the 1st attempt and it's simply unbelievable. Gamers MUST get this but it's also a necessity for everyone who has a k750/w800/k800/etc. Thanks max!

Thanx a lot for the fast delivery. Btw. I did some advertising for your joystick cap and wrote a little review in german at Telefon-Treff.de.

Mine arrived today, I got the 1st gen cap as it wouldn't show the top of my joystick, as i don't have w800i anyway, looks real nice on my k800i.

Thanks

Just in case anybody wanted to see, sorry about low quality pics, should have used zoom instead of macro but I'm not much of a photographer

Just pull it off with ur finger nails. Your gonna need to tug on it pretty hard tho.

[maxh2]

eLiguL is right, just pull it off. Sometimes if you pull hard, the joystick will lift up and become unseated. When this happens, just move it around until it falls in place. I've done it probably 100+ times on my phone.

You could also try taking the phone apart without removing it. I don't remember for sure, but I think I designed them so that they will just barely fit through the hole in the case for this reason.
