Face U/MX-mini U replica, acrylic/alu plate, KEEP ORDERING

[Zentaaa]

Tinnie as the mx mini u is going to take longer I was wondering if you could transfer my order to a face u pcb and alu plate? Thanks

[MrMen]

Just got mine at the moment. Really nice red btw. Let's solder svitch !

[DanielT]

That was fast! I hope I get mine soon

[tinnie]

Shipping to Romania will be longer.

[DanielT]

I know I'm checking the tracking every day... at least 2 weeks if I'm lucky.

[ClaudiaJ]

I think I got missed when you sent out tracking numbers tinnie, I'm not sure where my red face is

[MrMen]

Just typing on it right now. Everything goes fine except I don't know how to upload new firmware on this board… Anyone know that ?

[DanielT]

This is for faceW, is almost the same only a newer version http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=505 ... msg1256970
There was also another guide I have to look. if you figure it out please make a HOWTO
EDIT: This is the other guide, also for faceW but in theory is the same. same controller only newer version of the PCB http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=58945.0

[MrMen]

Ok. I concrete to go in boot mode, flash firmware etc. Everything is fine except my right shift. I want a Fn key on the right and RSHIFT is not working, BUT Fn is working like a charm . I'll check with xev if something is catched.

For the software, all is ok pressing Q during few time really do the job.

Thanks for these links DanielT.

[DanielT]

Strange, I have to get my PCB's and start playing... We will have to share all the stuff here, because there is not much info on faceU in English

[MrMen]

Ok, I just tried a "beautiful" hack using a wire between holes and RSHIFT is working. So I think it's only the firmware. Now I have to find column and row for this key

[DanielT]

This needs to be documented
You are using a HHKB style layout ? Because this is what I want to do with both PCB's so I'm all ears

[tinnie]

I sent a message to the maker (since I have the same problem), he said he forgot to put the wire to the 1800 shift. So we all have to wire the 1800 shift to the original shift. Sorry about that. :/

[DanielT]

No problem The first one who does that should make a photo of the hack, this way we have it documented
L.E: looking at the PCB I think I see where the missing trace is:

Will do it when I'm home. Sorry about that, again.

[DanielT]

Don't worry, is not a big deal For me it's more fun when you have to tweak a little. I have all my soldering stuff ready

[MrMen]

It's really simple doing it like I did. I took only 10s.
Here are the pictures.

So I was right about the position It's a really simple fix. Thanks for sharing

[YUIOP]

Hey tinnie, have you shipped the rest of faceu orders?

[tinnie]

Yes, yuiop, I shipped your order last saturday.

[YUIOP]

Great! May I know the tracking number as well?

[mashby]

Great! May I know the tracking number as well?

If tracking is available, I'd love mine as well.

[macmakkara]

Tinnie. Have you shipped my stuff already? :p

[Donbabbeo]

Great! May I know the tracking number as well?

If tracking is available, I'd love mine as well.

Me too please

[chzel]

Me too please

Mee three!
Please, please...

[Mandeor]

Hi tinnie,

if they are still available, i'll take
-2x Face U replica, support ISO
-2x Aluminium plate (support ISO) for face U

-1x MX mini U
-1x Acrylic plate (support ISO) for MX-MINI U

and also interested in
-1x Acrylic case for MX-MINI U <-depends on the price

[Shinryuu]

I have a big right shift in my configuration and I want to map it as Fn key but xev still reports it right shift :O It looks like it's acting as a right shift and Fn at the same time!

[MrMen]

How do you remap this key ?

Here is my finish keyboard. I know that's a crappy case but it's all homemmade with " recup' " materials. Wainting for a real one.
