“We’ll hit this phone with an unscrew…”

My, how phones have changed! 🤣

The intro was the best 30 seconds of my life

The adjustment board uses two trimmer potentiometers to make it look like the joystick is centered (basically an offset). It isn't a permanent solution, but it allows you to offset the axes once again if the stick starts to drift. Never knew these boards existed. It's a pretty smart and cheap solution to the problem before hall effect sensor joysticks become cheap and widespread.

let's all agree it's a good day when prg uploads a long video

The real fix is to use Hall Effect sensors instead of potentiometers. Unfortunately those don't exist (yet?) for Playstation controllers of any generation, but Gulikit makes some pretty awesome controllers that have them which are compatible with everything else.

Congrats on the 3 million man… Very well deserved! 🙌🏻

[IUSAI]

3:30 is the undeniable proof, that you fixed too many phones

[GuardianTiger]

I don't have any of these but I'm still watching this for the knowledge.

Thanks for the info, I’ve been cheaping out by buying a cheap lightning to usb on my ps3 controller and I experienced the problem with my right analog.

[UhrwerkKlockwerx]

What's funny is hall effect sensor technology was used for the analog sticks AND the analog triggers all the way back on the Sega Dreamcast. That means that back then it was somewhat affordable, at least to the point that it was economical to have hall effect sensors in the final product. As far as I know, it hasn't been used since. It's kinda upsetting because clearly that's one of the best ways to prevent wear and tear on the joysticks since there's no physical contact like with potentiometers, and it was at least _somewhat_ affordable.

For soldering, put a little solder on your iron, and touch the metals with that solder. It makes heat transfer better thus making it accept solder more easly. Then add more solder to the solder joints.

3:30 “Now we’ll hit this phone with an unscrew” got me chuckling 🤭

[konrad]

3:30 fixing a phone are we.. that reflex really kicking in there haha

[MoyDee]

This is really cool. I will note and he may say this, but you will eventually get to a point where the modules need replaced because it will eventually become nonfunctional by creating a massive dead zone. It’s a bandage not a fit. Still really cool. Also the parts cost a little less than replacement sticks so not as great cost wise.

Do we add magsafe to this phone? 3:30 😆 The intro was hilarious.

"Hit this Phone with an unscrew" 😅😂

[TechToolsMichael]

Use some flux when soldering mate. Helps a heap. 👍😎

[line_chill]

3:30 “ we are going to hit this PHONE with unscrew”😂😂 bro it’s controlla
