Yeah i saw the positions in a teardown video. I wouldnt have a problem with that.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
well, as long as you could print it, just send me a sketch with how you want it to look and i'll make it
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Spillunke:
I cant :( i have no 3d printer and dont know anything about these sketches. I wish i could!

Maybe there is someone who also like my idea and has a printer. I would buy these :)
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
I mean get a piece of paper and write down your idea. I make the models.

You can send stuff to print and then pay for it. I don't know how expensive that would be but it's known to be a common thing, since people can make custom things like Rubik cubes and get them all printed and ready to assemble. Since these pieces are tiny I guess it wouldn't be very expensive. But I have to test them first and see if the size is right or not
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Predatorhaze:
i wish those speakers in black,is there any video that show how the remove/replace the speaker grills?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] pelelademadera:
scale is bad....

they are less than 10mm.... really tiny

scale it and quote me, I print it. is a few minutes to do it
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Miustone:
Just wow! Love the Idea and it could be awesome to use black Ones with bigger Diamond shaped holes... Wish i could Print some, but i would also mind buying a pair of them...

Black Grills with Black Panel... Mhhhhhh
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
I don't know why that could've happened, bur I don't know how to scale them. My .par files are on scale, around 70 mm long. I'll see how I can save them to retain the size, but it's weird
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
Well there are services where you send the file and they print the grills for you and send them... You're on Brazil, right?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
you're right, just checked and they look like 4 mm long... [MENTION=3836686]kitcostantino[/MENTION] don't try anything else, not your fault or the printer's ? let me get the files ready
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
Again, thank you for taking the time to do this, brother. Very much appreciated!!!
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] pelelademadera:
post the dimensions, you remove it to measure it? how deep are? cause if I scale it, Im sure it will be too much higer than screen.....
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] brian117:
Just wanted to chime in and say I think this is an awesome idea. Really liking the design of the triple line cut out. If only this was thought of at the beginning of the Axon 7's life. Could've made a big profit for doing this as a service.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
Look, I took them out, put them under a millimeter grid paper, and scanned them @ 1200 dpi (took ages). After that I made the model in Autocad 2D, then when I was sure that that was the profile I imported it into Solid Edge, gave it volume and made the top surfacing.

Tomorrow I'll try to export them again as .stl. It's Solid Edge that does that.

Why would it be higher than the screen though?? It's 1 mm high on the screen side. I guess it got scaled down accordingly
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] HighSierra:
Shipping one pair from the middle one to Germany, I want test it. Hopefully you came from Germany too?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
don't use them yet, they have messed up size.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
[MENTION=3836686]kitcostantino[/MENTION] [MENTION=5403000]pelelademadera[/MENTION] Alright, I have no idea.

https://puu.sh/zBU6A/dd27e0903b.png

This is Solid Edge on the export screen. It asks me for the printer size, which may be what we need to change

edit: alright, I saved one with 3D Builder instead. Let's see what happens.

Rename the file extension to .stl and try printing it. Now everything seems to report the right size
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
Cool. Im at work for about 4 more hours, but when i get home, i will give it a go. machine is loaded with clear filament ATM, which is my tester/waster spindle, but i have a new spool of black ready in hand. :)
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] pelelademadera:
Well, it works good.

Im solving some extruder problems and print it in 5 minutes
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
so here are all the files on .stl and .3mf format. 3D builder says that the 3mf files are better, I don't know to what extent though.

[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
Much closer, man. Woot! . Im going to trim the camera hole out a bit to fit, but the sizing seems ok. This printer (the most plug and play one i think ive seen) makes the surface rough, so id probably sand these before taping as well as fitting the camera glass a bit more precisely than my machine prints. Also, using clear filament makes them hard to photograph. i only did the one slit ones so far, but man, it is awesome that we are this close.

Again, thank you for all your work on this. [MENTION=7799420]Choose an username...[/MENTION] I will try some black ones tomorrow.

Edit: Note1: The texture of the top layer is like a criss-cross pattern like: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I imagine sanding would pull it off/smooth it. the printer im using hasnt been used much, so i pretty much have to figure it out on my own. maybe a setting dictates the smoothness of the top, outermost layer. An idea, though, would be to invert the files from left to right so the smooth side (front) prints on the bed. you actually want the underside rough so the 1/4 screen tape gets better adhesion.

Note 2: The height seems about right. That i can adjust on my end to some extent once i get the camera hole trimmed out to accommodate the front facing glass. its only very nominally off bc of the janky quality of the printer im using, im sure. but trial and error. we will succeed, brother, we will succeed. :)
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
well that's really nice. I'm most worried about both the screen/edge height and the overall size. I'm guessing the rounded surface at the top didn't get printed well, but you can sand it. Is it possible to change the precision on the printer somehow?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] pelelademadera:
Use less infill..., 80% at most.

Its a real little piece to print. Maybe we can use the single strip... I think it will work better. And print in reverse, the part thats on the fron touching the bed, so it will be plain

[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
the problem is that that part is not plain, it goes from 1 mm to about 0.7 or 0.5 which is the edge thickness. I'm guessing it is still possible to sand to get something okay anyways.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] pelelademadera:
The size of the courve is really small, its no problem to print it.

Or can be printed plain, and then sand a little

Enviado desde mi ZTE A2017G mediante Tapatalk
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
The height is actually close to perfect. the overall size seems close enough to where only mild fitting will be necessary. I am guessing to some extent as i only have a shard or two of glass left on my midframe to go by. zte should have my axon in Texas tomorrow sometime. then the two week wait. lol. glad i have the duracoat disaster phones parts to play with. I do totally agree, [MENTION=5403000]pelelademadera[/MENTION] these would be more ideal inverted as the bottom prints smooth and the top kind of rough with the criss-cross pattern. Amazing work, though man. would have taken me 30 tries to get it this close. Thank you again [MENTION=7799420]Choose an username...[/MENTION] for spending your time and efforts to benefit us all.

and that is the bottom grill on the top just to show the thickness of the part is very close if not perfect.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
So, do I have to do something on my end to make them print upside down? Or it's something you guys can change?

I guess I can make some without the curve, made so that they have to be sanded more. i'll make them later

Also, the printer prints in sort of a cross pattern, right? Is there any way to make it print in horizontal lines, so that the slits come out better?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
Honestly, i havent really delved in to the software much. its pretty 'cookie cutter' aka made to be user friendly without many frills, so aside from height (which is one option i can change, but without regard to any curve in the surface of the file) I am not sure what i can or cant do. I am honestly not even sure i could use a better software as what is included is all i have checked/tried as of yet. I will dig through and see what parameters i can adjust/edit.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
when i zoom in, i see the top layer pattern that makes it rough. I also see v1 to the far right. ;)

printing the "seemingly better' format one in the highest quality this box will do atm.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
sorry for the triple post, but im kinda stoked i can do this....

I will say this software does not have an inversion feature. i gotta read up tomorrow. at work, since its a slow day. lol.

EDIT: printing all 6 at the same time was a bad idea. lol. i have a couple of wads of plastic that resemble 3 speaker grills each. lol.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
well i guess there should be a way to modify the printer path and make it print in horizontal lines somehow
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] pelelademadera:
you can print and tell the printer make the top and botton anyway wou want, lines in any angle or concentric.

my print is the worst quality I can get for a .4mm nozzle, its 0.3 mm layer height.

print quality can be increased a lot with a 0.1mm layer and a 0,3mm nozzle, of course a 0.2 will be better, I have a 0.3 to try, but I think the best way to do is simple, then sand, and spray with any paint.

will be nearly perfect...

the other option is print it in abs and acetone to do the soft edges, with a lot of caution, cause is a toxic quimic.

but I think paint it will be the best option to get a professional work.

then you can print a case cover so you protect the phone... I draw one some time ago, is posted somewere here
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Masterjuggler:
I just checked out the V2 STLs. A few suggestions:

- Try to make the wall thickness (material between slits, holes, etc.) some multiple of 0.48mm. The most common nozzle diameter on an FDM printer is 0.4mm, which usually (or hopefully) creates 0.48mm wide extrude lines due to a (subjectively) optimal 120% extrusion width. At the very least, Simplify3d does 120% by default and I've found it works well for me with every printer and slicing software I've used.

- Up the polygon count on the camera hole. It looks like there's 13 squares currently. 30 would be a better number, and should grow the file size by a noticeable amount. This just makes for a rounder hole that will fit over the camera better. Especially if it's printed with anything other than FDM, like SLA or SLS.

And a note to everyone: Keep in mind that every printer is different an almost no two printers will keep the same tolerances. If your slicer software isn't able to scale along individual axes, I suggest ditching and switching to something with that basic functionality. I prefer Slic3r. It may be slower on larger models, but unlike other software, because it's written in perl it'll just keep chugging along without crashing until it's done. If you use a Makerbot.... I'm sorry, but you have the iphone of the 3d printer world.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
well, i'll have to look into that... i just used "save as" from Solid Edge and that file came out ?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ibphantom:
Glossy black yessss!

I think it would be cool to have a hashed zig-zag look.

I would totally test this out if I had a printer.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Infy_AsiX:
couldn't you just paint the originals?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
I just found out you can make a printer print a file made by a CAM program?
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Masterjuggler:
Well technically yes. Slicer programs for printers like Slic3r and Cura take a model and generate Gcode that the printer can work with, which makes them CAM programs already, but without integrated CAD. If you're talking about a CAM program dedicated to CNC machines like Easel, I don't think they have 3d printer functionality built in. Printers use a different flavor of Gcode than other CNC machines. For example most printers don't take arc commands, which kills me because you need a million little f****** line movements to make an arc.

I'm pretty sure Fusion 360 already has it built in, though idk how good it is.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
Well I have access to NX, and it's exactly the same with CNC mills - a curve is usually made by a bunch of lines.

I thought printers may take some format like Parasolid or something.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Masterjuggler:
I only have a little experience with CNC machines, but I can tell you that just like CNC machines, the printers themselves only read Gcode which must be either written by hand or through CAM. The type of model you can use is dependent on the CAM, not the machine.

With CNC mills, while the end result is a bunch of lines, the Gcode command is an arc function, G2 and G3 IIRC. Most printers simply don't take those commands and require each line to be a separate line in Gcode.
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dimitrakhs1:
yes,black with grills would be great for me,please!Thanx!
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kitcostantino:
actually, if you have a grey axon, the plastic beneath the grey paint is black. so you could, theoretically, just sand them. i initially wanted these for my gold (now 80% parted out) axon 7, and the gold speaker grilles are white plastic.

i like the idea of printing black ones better than harming my mint grey ones. ;) hopefully, i can find some time soon. ;)
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jawz101:
I like the lines ones. Very art deco
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Alchurro:
Send a grill my way and I can test it
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
All of them are uploaded on the OP.

Again, the thing is that I don't know if I need to add more material to be sanded. I'd test this myself but I don't have a printer.

please tell me as soon as you test them, i'm interested
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bookburner:
So just a wish since the prototype files are moving along nicely. I would love a version with honeycombs or hexagon shaped holes that are obviously bigger then the current holes. And are we supposed to paint the printouts? Any recommendations for a good finish. I live in SF so I'm sure I can find a maker space that will let me use a 3d printer
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Choose an username...:
I'd say use the smallest extruder available, also very low speeds. If you can print in ABS, it's much better to sand than PLA. Otherwise you can use something as filler and then sand it afterwards. Spray paint, and you're done
[ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Predatorhaze:
ive painted my speaker grills black,on my axon 7 g grey.Looks very nice~!! im thinking of painting the back (chassis) also in black and make the text white

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] twisted.au:
Hi All,

Does the OnePlus 5T running OxygenOS 5.0.3 work with Dropbox properly. Dropbox the app loads, I can access my cloud files and upload files manually no problem. But the camera upload feature does not work all the time. If I restart my phone it will upload photos for a few seconds and then stop working again. Is this behaviour anyone else has witnessed too? I am at a loss at how to correct this problem. I contact OnePlus support, they claim its not their problem. I have contacted Dropbox support, they claim its a OnePlus issue with the OS interfering with the app. I feel like I'm stuck now with no solution. I haven't been able to come across anyone else with this problem. Any ideas/help would really be appreciated. I find the fact that it uploads for a short period of time then stops really bizarre. Would this support Dropbox's claim that the OP software is somehow interfering to kill off background transfers or something?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Redjax:
Have you checked the settings for anything that might require WiFi for uploads? I know with Google drive, for instance, it will only upload/download things if you're on wifi by default, but there is a setting to allow uploads and downloads on mobile data too. I don't use Dropbox, but that was my first thought.

My other thought is to to into your Doze settings and check it Dropbox is being optimized. If it is being optimized, you may want to try setting it to not optimized and see if that fixes your issue.

Good luck!
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] twisted.au:
Yeah I've tried changing things like allowing Dropbox to upload via WiFi only, WiFi and data. I've also changed the settings around the battery level (i.e. only upload when battery is >30%).

I've turned off the optimise settings for Dropbox; that is the Dropbox setting under "Battery optimisation" is set to "Don't optimise" if that's what you mean. Is that what the doze settings are? I can't find anything specifically around Doze in the settings anywhere. Also in the app settings Dropbox is set to allow "Background activity". I've attached 2 screenshots, but I look at the 2 screenshots attached from different settings screens they say different things though. One says optimisation is off, the other says its on?

Finding OP very frustrating on this, its the only device I own that has this issue so its definitely something on the phone being funny. Dropbox are adamant its a OP issue not a Dropbox issue; but the OP support guys just blow you off instantly and tell you to talk to the app developer. Just no interest at all in looking into it.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] tjhiwa:
I did the exact same things, and still having the same problem, too. It will only upload when I open the app.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] breugiek:
Any news on this one guys? Experiencing the same issues after upgrading my Samsung S8 to Oreo.

Uploads only working fine once.. after that only a manual upload is possible (or turning off -and back on again the camera uploads)

Pretty annoying :(
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] breugiek:
No one?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] twisted.au:
Sorry, never came back to this. I ended up working with Dropbox support for a few months and they resolved the issue with software updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] novasource:
I have a Sprint-branded S7. It's unlocked. I want to switch to T-Mobile.

Sprint changed its S7 bootloader to v5 in November 2017. All other carriers, including T-Mobile, are on bootloader v4 or earlier.

The problem: You can't flash to an older-version bootloader. You'll just get an error. The phone has efuses that prevent it.

Are there any workarounds?

Specifically, I want to switch this S7 from Sprint's G930PVPS5BRA1 to T-Mobile's G930TUVS4BRA1 (bootloader version emphasized).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Beanvee7:
No work arounds I've ever seen, US snapdragon models are all bootloader locked which prevents you doing any major modifications at a firmware level.

You'll either have to wait for a v5 of the firmware you want, or try the carrier unlocked G930U v5 firmware which might work better with T-Mobile.

I believe this is also the same for the unlocked bootloader on Exynos models, but only if you get the newest drag firmware version.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] novasource:
Unlocked is also on bootloader v4: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930U/. That is why I suspect this v5 bootloader is a trick by Sprint to frustrate switching.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
Booloaders are all locked on US S7s you can not switch Stock ROMs

You could SIM unlock and use a T-Mobile SIM though (paid)

Or sell that phone and buy a tmobile one
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] novasource:
This phone has the domestic unlock by Sprint, so I can switch stock ROMs. I did exactly that last summer when Sprint and T-Mobile's ROMs both had v4 bootloaders.

Because it is unlocked, you are right that I can also put in a T-Mobile SIM while it has the Sprint ROM. However, it will not see all T-Mobile bands until I put T-Mobile firmware on it. I noticed that last summer, and there are other anecdotal reports of this on the internetzors.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
Pretty certain that all bootloaders on the US model S7s are locked meaning you cannot switch stock ROMs, other than Verizon to the G930U, maybe others to that U firmware, but I don't own the snapdragon variant so just going on what I've read here on XDA

All Snapdragon US S7s are bootloader locked, meaning no custom anything

As for certain bootloaders of each stock ROM I don't know

But I do know SIM unlock and bootloader unlock are two completely different things, switching from one carrier ROM to another does not unlock the SIM to that carrier
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] novasource:
They are locked against unauthorized/custom software, but there is nothing that stops you from putting authorized software on them. As all US variants are hardware-identical, all carrier ROMs are by definition authorized on any.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
I see, but what would be the point of switching from Sprint to T-Mobile stock ROM?

Surely just different OEM bloat?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] novasource:
While the hardware supports all bands, the ROMs do not have all bands enabled. From personal experience last summer, if you have the Sprint ROM on the phone, your phone will not see all T-Mobile bands. There are plenty of anecdotal reports of this on the internet.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
I was under the impression that only SIM unlocking would solve that?

So you are saying that by managing to flash from Sprint to T-Mobile, a Sprint S7 is now able to use the T-Mobile network without a SIM unlock ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] novasource:
SIM unlocking only appears to permit you to put your phone on another network. It does not appear to enable all your phone's bands. To enable another network's bands, you appear to have to switch ROMs. If there's another way of doing that, I'm interested!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
My guess is you would first need to perform the actual SIM unlock, and then move over to the preferred network ROM to have 100% of their bands and abilities

If your phone was originally on Sprint, and you managed to flash to T-Mobile, my guess is that your T-Mobile SIM would still not work until you SIM unlocked

CSC change is what determines which features work and don't, for example on o2 CSC I can get WiFi calling, but with XEU (also UK ROM) I cannot, even though my carrier is o2, basically I bought the phone on XEU but unless I switch manually over to O2 CSC I cannot use that feature
