Thanks for the update! I just tried the first beta of whatsup of cepiperez.
Would be nice if we could the whatsup's notifications on toholed, too. Is this possible ?
Many thanks for toholed again - still my favourite and everyday toh!

Kimmo, how is the PCB attached to the plastic? Glue? Double-sided sticky tape? Magic?

I had the crazy idea of using the empty space in my new TOH to fit a Qi charging pad. I found one that is cheap as chips and fits almost perfectly, though I may need to remove one of the ribs. But my main problem is how and where to attach the power lines. Obviously I would prefer to attach them to your PCB as that already has the pogo pads but it sits in the plastic like a bum on the potty. How do I take it off without breaking anything?

Magical double-sided tape with glue on both sides ?

Yep, crazy but not a new idea...

First, press the oled display from outside, slowly bend it (take care not breaking flex) to allow the double-sided tape to give up. There is small black sticker on the display, it might release before the sticky-tape (no worries)

Then use same carefull slowly tiring method to the PCB. There is 2 pieces of tape, one on both ends, and one bigger black double-sided tape between the IR led and sensor.

There is pad for charge input pogo, but unfortunately it is not connected to anywhere, just a pad - making connection there i leave to you :)
Ground is next to it, but it can be found around the pcb.

I never claimed the primacy :)

Thanks for the detailed description. Removing the PCB was a doddle, as was soldering the wire to the ground plane. The tricky part was doing the same for the charging pad. I eventually ended up cheating a bit, with a self-adhesive copper strip.

Here is the result:

Attachment 36949

It works fine, only a bit finicky. It is very sensitive to finding the right spot: just a few mm off and it stops charging.

But this is getting a bit OT, maybe I will find some time later to add more info in the wireless charging thread. This is just to say thanks Kimmo, you've been very helpful and instrumental in getting this done :)

By the way, the addition of temperature display (with the Weather app) was a nice addition, thanks Kimmo.

Indeed. It had me fooled for a few days. Despite not having Sailfish Weather installed at all. I thought, wow, it can pick up data from other weather clients too! (I have MeeCast.) How cool is that?

...until I realized that it was displaying the same temperature all this time ;)
