You'll be watching Barbie that day then I take it

If you can't just uninstall them then disable them in the settings but occasionally they do come back if there are major updates to them and your Google Play is set to auto-update all apps, I've never had that since disabling the apps I don't want though.

Rooting your phone might not be a good idea as it can disable things like banking apps, secure folders and such, there are supposedly ways to hide your root but I never got them to work on my banking app and unrooting won't fix that if you have a digital fuse on your phone (samsung has these and once they're tripped they can't be un-tripped).

I think you can use ADB without rooting to uninstall apps that can't be done via the UI but you'll need a seperate computer to do this. Have a look at this link but, as always, do some research on the subject rather than taking a strangers word:

Great, more pointless words to be careful about. Have you run this by any blind or deaf people? Do they care in the slightest about this? I'd imagine most wouldn't give two shits which you used as long as you're not being a dick about it

A 'C', 26 'U's , an 'N', a 'T' and an 'S' would have been my go to but I like yours too

Be sure to have a hand behind your back ready to take out your wallet so they know you're going to be prompt with your ID

 

You get a couple hours free on YT and Twitch but then they blueball you for the rest, I'm not paying $15 to watch two days of coverage 👍

I was going to cheat a bit and just take the inside black shell and somehow squeeze it in to a small floating shelf drawer I have but I don't have the tools I'd need to make a good job of making holes for the ports and I'm not sure how well the Bluetooth would work if it was completely covered like that (I'm sure it would be fine) and airflow would be taken care of by a tiny Noctua fan I have knocking around.

That was the idea, I don't have a printer but I'd pay to have it done, I'm not particularly handy so I wouldn't have much confidence in building something myself what with it needing to be very accurate to line up all the ports

They should have just stuck with a more traditional design, I like the Xbox S, hell even the X is better with its refrigerator design lol

That is an older pic, I cut the Batman ears off with a Dremmel and sanded them down to look very similar to the Dbrand ones but not quite as fitted a look. I like the Dbrand ones but I don't want to pay nearly £100 for some plates.

Here's a quick pic of it now...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I've already done that manually with the original plates, it looks better but not 'good' lol

 

I love my PS5 but I haaaate the way it looks so I'd like to be able to take the guts and fan out of it and pop it in to a simple, elegant, 3D printed case...do these exist?

Failing that I would be happy to build one out of wood if there were some kind of template for the ports etc...has anyone done this? Do you have a link to pics of your project?

There must be something that can be done to make the PS5 less offensive to look at, I've tried but even so, my attempts are not enough to make me hate it less, I've attached a pic of what mine looks like now (except I've rounded off the popped colar now, this is an older pic) hope it works.

I've seen the DIY Perks project and that's nice and all but it's a bit 'CEOs office' for my liking.

As for my PS5, I have an orange LED behind the PS logo and I attached EL wire along the sides of the front panel that lights up orange to match the paint job, these were wired to the USB power on the inside so I had to disable USB power in rest mode so that they turn off when not in use.
