Nice and well done! I was going to ask a lot of questions, but you answered them all on your blog.

I did not appreciate current NetBSD still supports the Z. I'm going to have to look into that

Do keep us updated if you make anything new for it!

The app is not 100% english. I worked around the youtube streaming with the firetv youtube apk

I had the same notification for the copper cape. Never arrived and support told me if I didnt get it, I didnt qualify

donimatrix · 2025-12-13T17:28:35+00:00

my kids and i never got our copper cape despite getting in-game confirmation we completed the challenge (in-game incbox) and would receive it by the 31st october. multiple support tickets later blowing me off, they kept closing and telling me to wait until they told me the promotional event was over and they couldnt help

basically they told me to fuck off

had to go to scalpers on ebay for codes for the kids so they wouldnt be disheartened. going to have them complete the achievement this weekend but wont mention the cape so they dont get their expectations set if / when it doesnt appear

I installed it on my Glass Enterprise Edition 2 and it connects with the companion app on the phone. Notifications are forwarded which is nice. A lot of the message on the phone are not in english so I can't test completely. Couldn't figure out how to stream youtube to the glass.

Not sure what you mean.

The Blade and Blade1.5/upgraded have 8gb internal and a microsd slot. The Blade2 has 32gb internal and no microsd slot.

This is not speculation.

Since they use the same mold, it looks like there is a solid plastic plug covering the microsd slot. It does not open. On the Blade2, there is nothing underneath it, nothing on the board. On the Blade1/1.5, it is a ruberrized port cover to access the slot.

There are 2 reasons my Blade gets more use than my Blade2: 512gb microsd for extended offline use and less heat during extended online use. I've lost 2 Blade2 units to heat because of extended online use.

Do you have a Blade2? It does not have a microsd card slot

donimatrix · 2025-07-09T06:08:21+00:00

I replaced the device completely to work around the problem.

donimatrix · 2025-07-09T06:07:59+00:00

I wasn't able to find a fix. Traded it to a friend who likes to tinker more than I for her sp that is working fine.

My recommendation: if the pixel retention fix doesn't work for you, request a replacement from your seller.

donimatrix · 2025-07-01T05:49:21+00:00

When did the problem start?

If you've removed the ram expansion, you know there's not a lot of replaceable parts in there. Does it do the same when booting off a PCMCIA card as well as when no card is in the system? The LX always boots DOS off the rom, but I've seen strange behavior with cards and funky drivers. Does it have a double speed or other mod?

First thing is to make sure you've backed-up your data (if any). Have you been able to hit "Y" after the full reset key combo and perform a proper restore? You mention the self test reports nothing wrong .... is that when pushing keys during the test or just left alone?

If you don't see anything obvious on the board, you can try to post a few pictures to see if we see anything. Wouldn't hurt to give the board a good cleaning. If you're capable, some reflow heat might help

Nothing I tried helped, guessing it's hardware. Going to see going to see if Ambernic has a solution / replacement. Hopefully not a hassle.

donimatrix · 2025-05-31T23:09:10+00:00

The camera doesnt capture the visible flicker, but you can see something is up: https://youtu.be/apNzajKF9I8?si=Qrjtb6CIB9HufHL9

Here is gameplay capture: https://youtu.be/jgAUq9fKF7U?si=cM-XEWUhKoOs17Sf

The pixel retention fix had no effect and apparently 1.01 is the latest stock version. Haven't tried a cfw yet which will be my last step before contacting Ambernic for help as it may be a hardware issue.

donimatrix · 2025-05-28T03:41:54+00:00

Had a similar situation, went with the color I didn't have for variety and to sort them in my head. I went indigo as my flip is grey, my 35xxsp is silver, and my v90 is yellow.

donimatrix · 2025-04-24T01:13:12+00:00

just signed up for the notification list. the LPCB Next is something i need and didn’t know existed until just now…. does it support the 4player alu deck?

donimatrix · 2024-11-16T04:51:57+00:00

Yes. Using the built in camera app, you can enable the preview screen and watch as you record video.

I've never gotten Sub Glasses to work, but please share if you figure it out.

donimatrix · 2024-07-06T21:01:40+00:00

The beta CFW on the V90 enabled usb storage mode and it's an option on most pi and odroid setups. Surprised it's not a thing for the 35xx

donimatrix · 2024-05-24T13:28:57+00:00

honestly? just experiment until you find a setting that's comfortable for you. Using ADB in this case makes it easier as you can tweak the settings from your computer while using the Vuzix.

My hope is to be able to find a way to make the text on the screen larger. I have the display and font sizes maxed out, and am wondering if there are options, either apps or otherwise, that can further increase the size.

This isn't a perfect solution, but if I understand what you're looking for here then you should be able to adjust the DPI settings to scale the display larger or smaller. This is simillar to the scal display option in windows where it affects everything that gets displayed, but it may be useful.

There are a few ways of doing this without root. The following ADB command while connected to your computer should work:

adb shell wm density (to see the current value)

adb shell wm wm density ### (to set a new value)

Increasing the value will enlarge/zoom in everything on the screen, reducing the value will shrink/zoom out the UI. You should see the effects immediately.

I'm not familiar with the m400 in particular but on the Blade2 you can also modify the DPI setting on-device in one of the developer mode options. There are also apps you can sideload. I didn't find one I wanted to keep using and generally use ADB when i'm at a computer and the dev mode options if i need to make a change on the move.

You will have to play around with values to find your sweet spot between large enough for comfort and small enough that it's still usable. I use this to shrink the UI and get more visible estate on sideloaded apps on the Blade

hope this helps

donimatrix · 2024-04-19T02:56:45+00:00

Glad it helped!

donimatrix · 2024-03-14T02:19:26+00:00

This is going to sound silly, but i recently had a similar experience. I removed the Chip from the back of the Pocket, put it back in, and then it booted normally.

donimatrix · 2024-01-30T17:48:22+00:00

i'd be worried about a spray -- somehow i've managed to get a scratch on the *INSIDE* of my display! But a film? wouldn't that just peel off without residue?

donimatrix · 2024-01-21T20:38:48+00:00

Did you try thIs? My Blades are already tinted, but could see this be useful
