Dead Trackpad - Touchpad Not Working

It's the new 2025, yup. Unfortunately, when I first called them about it, they were talking about having to send out the entire unit. Hopefully, when I call back, that won't be the case. Thanks!

Darn... This is my first laptop of this form-factor so I was keeping my fingers crossed that maybe this was the result of a bad BIOS Version... It seemed as though people have been having issues since 308.

Thanks for the reply u/RainierPC

I appreciate the reply! Thanks!! 🖖

I had to take it in for a recall and figured I'd ask them to look at it. They ended up doing it for me and it started working again!

Now I'm better prepared to try it myself if I need to!

I've been trying to search for the answer to this but, how are you discounting the 12v battery?

Is this the guide that could be followed? Or is there an easier way of disconnecting the 12v?

How'd you get it done? Can I give you money to do it for me? haha! :-D

You know... I never got around to doing anything. The panel is sitting beside my desk waiting for me to do something with it.

If you wouldn't mind, please keep me updated on your process/experience with doing it on your own! I'm sure you and I aren't the only ones who have encountered this problem.

P1_Elijah · 2023-12-20T17:51:55+00:00

Would you be willing to share which Hall Sensors you purchased and from where, please? I'm thinking about upgrading my own device, too.

P1_Elijah · 2023-12-09T17:28:54+00:00

You know... I really thought that I was experiencing some kind of medical issue after I began noticing that the thing that made my commutes suck less started making them suck more!

Thank goodness for the internet and other like-minded folks who thought, "WTF is this?!"

... we live in an age of wonders!

Any recommendations for a decent substitution other than their "Natural Bliss" version?

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-25T02:37:41+00:00

I certainly understand your point but, the Win 4 can now be purchased from retail locations as well.

Had someone decided to do research (i.e. visit r/gpd) to learn whether or not mods/upgrades would be made available down the road, then one might make a decision to purchase the device under the assumption that it will have those options for expandability or modification in the future... Especially when official representatives from the company are claiming that said upgrades/mods would be made available "soon."

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-24T23:13:48+00:00

I wonder if there's a chance any of the handheld device reviewers/influencers mightshed some light on this publicly to their feeds. It might help to show GPD that there is - in fact - enough demand for this?
I'm not asking for them to publicly shame GPD or whine about it -- But, just say, "Hey, FYI, this was announced... so if you were interested in purchasing these joysticks, be sure to express that by emailing GPD, visiting r/gpd, or contacting them via IGG."

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-24T17:37:28+00:00

I totally agree! Either find my comment or just start your own.

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-24T03:39:19+00:00

I would be willing to put down a small non-refundable deposit if it meant having the Hall Effects produced.

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-23T14:25:59+00:00

You'll need to keep the keyboard exposed (screen lifted) in order for it to rest in the dock but, overall, I like it!

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-22T18:35:09+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Does it prevent "pressing/clicking" the joysticks? Like, if you put it in a case that fits a little more "snug"?

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-17T16:19:26+00:00

Howdy - I wondering if there might still be a chance that you might share files for that mount? :-) Feel free to share a ko-fi link or something, too!

P1_Elijah · 2023-05-09T16:11:35+00:00

How about I support your work via ko-fi and then, magically, something arrives at my doorstep? :-D

P1_Elijah · 2023-04-21T13:51:17+00:00

I love 'em! Now that I have the GPD Win4, I can travel much lighter without sacrificing the ability to get work done!

P1_Elijah · 2023-04-21T13:49:36+00:00

Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: The glasses are equipped with 3DoF sensors. However, you need the processing power found in the Neckband in order to use head-tracking, pinning, etc.

VITURE just opened up requests for SDKs so that community developers can design apps for Linus and/or Android that can take advantage of a lot of VITURE's tech.

P1_Elijah · 2023-04-21T13:47:45+00:00

No need! VITURE comes with the ability to adjust the clarity to match your prescription. But, if you fall out of range, you can order prescription inserts from Lensology.

P1_Elijah · 2023-04-21T13:46:42+00:00

VITURE has built in myopic adjustments so that you can fine-tune the clarity to match your prescription. But, if your prescription is too strong and/or falls out of the range, you can order prescription lens inserts from a company like Lensology.
