3d printers can be extremely handy. There's even simple and free CAD software to use. Like tinkercad and sketchup. You can even combine traditional methods and 3d parts to be more efficient and effective. Today, I was replacing a custom fan led with traditional bulbs. Needed an 8mm spacer that took less than a half hour to model and print. I highly suggest learning the 3 steps, Model, Slice, and Print. Depending how inclined you are, it can take a week to a month to learn everything.

Some improvements, use a hub to attach usb ports. The switch for power, sliding it back and forth is going to wear the ports out, so it would be better to switch +5v on the USB line. Modern laptops use an antenna in the screen, not a bad idea by removing the circuit board from the phone and directly mounting it. Also, instead of aluminum, just just pvc. If you want to go all out, put a USBc dock inside.

To be honest, they already are internet devices for the less fortunate of our world, if they even have internet. Where you do think all those used phones people sell or throw away or recycle go? A lot of the electronics recycling companies make a profit by selling the electronic waste to other countries for a profit. And considering they get electronics for cheaper than new, which they can repair and sell in their country, why would they refuse?

[@MrWirelesscaller]

It depends on how old the phone was because it could be considered a security risk for some of the more security required apps (like banking) due to not being able to update android enough to plug security leaks. I like the fact that phones can be unlocked but they really also need to be able to be rooted remove the crapware from the mfg and would allow other options to keep many of these devices to become ewaste (not everyone recycles or sells off their old devices, they simply throw them away) by allowing enthusiastic people to come together as a community to develop an OS that can run on them. Many of these flagship android phones hardware are much better than some of the basic arm chromebooks, it's a shame that they can't be recycled into a diy laptop or chromebook instead.

[@SapioiT]

@@MrWirelesscaller Especially since there could be a kit similar to this one which can be bought ready-made, which one could buy and stick the old phone into, after replacing the operating system with one like LineageOS and Replicant, or after updating to a newer Android version. And depending on the capabilities of the hardware (most important part being the screen, in terms of price), we could get nice smartphone-to-laptop conversion kits, maybe even adding custom cooling for the phone, with the aid of either a thermal pad or lots of thermal paste, or even removing the case and battery from the phone (or replacing the battery with a smaller one, to leave more room for cooling but not shut down if power is cut for a few seconds), and directly cool the other components, especially since there are lots of small and tiny stick-on cooling fins, and funneling the air from a fan into the right places is not difficult nor expensive.

@@walkinmn he did way more complicated things in this DIY... he could definitely add a tiny fan to take out the hot air.

@@johnnyxp64 yes, of course it's doable, but then you have to consider the space, noise, extra voltage to take care of and which will also deplete the battery faster, how are you going to control it?

Why wouldn't you paint the bezels before attaching them to the panel? That seems... weird.

Aside from broken old phones that is a fantastic setup for SBCs (Single Board Computers) Such as the Raspberry Pi 4 with 8GB of RAM. That gives you many choices for the operating system. The thing with SBCs is that they all miss monitor, keyboard, mouse, and a battery for charging. This setup would turn any SBC into a mini laptop in a brilliant way. There are 100s of SBCs in the market and many thousands of SBC enthusiasts who develop software for and Turn SBCs into unique custom machines. Retro gaming is one primary use application for SBCs. And RPI 4 in particular has many fans who consume creative videos done for it with passion. Hook up a RPI 4 to this and I stall wi does on it with a title like "Custom built Raspberry PI 4 Laptop running windoes 10" and I bet it will get a lot if hits and many new subscribers!!! ETA Prime and Explaining Computers are two popular channels for SBC enthusiasts.

[@ChrisD__]

You won't get good battery life though as the Raspberry Pi lacks a low power state. An old phone seems like a better choice.

Your power switch is kinda sketchy, cutting the usb c cable and adding a normal switch or a transistor to switch the power on and off would be more reliable and stronger

[@Gwynbleiddsanity]

yeah the constant plugging and unplugging would probably not recommended for long term use

[@steveseeger]

It's not just the power switch. It's 2x and one has signal. Trying to wire for signal and have it work is hard, signal wires are like 3 little strands most people couldn't DIY that.

[@ahmadshiddiqn]

@@steveseeger i thouthg the only signal cable is for the screen? the other type c are the power input from the power bank no?

[@satibel]

@@ahmadshiddiqn depending on how it is setup, the screen board might try to be powered by the phone via the data lines if you are only switching the power. the simplest solution would probably be to use an extension cable (female to male usb c) and use that as the switch. so if/when it gets worn out, you just replace the 2 cables instead of the board.

People don't realize that their cellphone especially flagship models are already super handheld computers. They have more computing power and applications than PC in the 90s or even early 2000s and they fit in yout pocket. This is still a great way to refurbished a screen damaged phone though.

You can purchase small aluminum angle that size, and it makes that part much easier. Safer, too, since there's no cutting needed and no sharp edges to have to deal with.
