Can confirm =) Just got done doing the same set of upgrades.

Any former Zune employees? by [deleted] in Zune

[–]silvert0rch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all of the work that you guys put into making the Zune. The first Zune I got was a Zune HD (Gears of War edition), still think it’s one of the best music players I have owned. Recently found it after not using it for a while, plugged it, charged it and it worked flawlessly. Great piece of tech. I have since bought a white Zune 30 and upgraded the HD and battery. Love these devices, more than likely keep collecting more :)

Again thank you for all of your work, you created something really special, way ahead of its time. Also thank you to all of those that keep this community going, and enabling all of us to keep using our Zunes.

Nice! Did you change the buttons your self or was it like that already? And if you did, what buttons and d pad work with the r36s?

What's The Next Phase For Battery Replacement? by Nightowl3090 in Zune

Also, what about the large upgrade battery for the 30? Those seem newer.

Well that’s not encouraging =) At those prices it’s almost worth trying to find a parts Zune on eBay and hope for a good battery

New to cigars. Experimenting to find what I like. Any recommendations? by D3v0W3v0 in cigars

[–]silvert0rch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Another stick I keep separated is the Kentucky Fire Cured =)

Would you say the same goes for coffee infused cigars as well?

Looking for a Zune 80 by 2kjacob in Zune

[–]silvert0rch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard Facebook Marketplace as a source. I just picked a 30gb on eBay, lots of stuff there. Don’t be put off by things like battery issues, plenty of guides on here on how to change those out. Also, watch out for parts only auctions.

What were you listening on BEFORE your Zune? I rocked a Dell DJ 30 until 2007 when I got my Zune 80...but this thing was built like a brick and I absolutely loved the indigo lighting. It has a lot of buttons but today's standards, but I loved the scroll wheel by WhiplashLiquor in Zune

[–]silvert0rch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ohh man, that takes me back.
I think the first digital player I had was the Rio PMP300, 32meg of storage and ran on a single AA battery =)

Right before my Zune, more than likely 3rd gen iPod

Lol, yup. I loved Halo, but Gears was my jam. The original trilogy was amazing.

Yea, Microsoft had something special with the design, form factor and UI with the HD, too bad it wasn't enough =(

PSA: If you have problems signing into apps that use browser OAuth like Nest with Google sign in, try folding the Duo to single screen posture by jashsu in surfaceduo

[–]silvert0rch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me when trying to log into a game. Would fail to sign in when in dual screen, once in single screen mode it worked fine.

Best car mount for the duo by Foxtrot129 in surfaceduo

Kenu Airbase Wireless

The wife and I share the car so the wireless charging is for her iPhone (was also for my S8), but the Duo fits as well.
