Neo1973 Robustness
From Openmoko
This is a list of stuff you've done to your neo.
| User | Height fell | Horizontal velocity | Surface it hit | Damage? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Speedevil | 1m | 0 | carpet | none |
| rwhitby | 1.3m | 0.25m/s | pavement | Front of case separated from middle around the BT antenna (the screws inside had been previously removed), AUX button dislodged (but could be replaced easily), scratches on silver on front top and rear right. |
| Johan | 1.2m | 0 | tiled floor | none |
| User | Amount of liquid | Type of liquid | Damage? |
|---|---|---|---|
| bradpitcher | total immersion | water | No apparent damage. I immediately opened the case and removed the battery, tried to shake off excess water, and let sit to dry for a day before restarting it. NOTE: this does not mean the Neo is waterproof. Do NOT try this at home! |
| User | Symptom | Circumstances | Damage? |
|---|---|---|---|
| freelock | AUX button broke | One day it just quit clicking, no tactile feedback | Took apart the front of the Neo, and the little contact had popped off the circuit board. Now I need to find a soldering iron and remember how to do this kind of thing! |
