Crandis16 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 there will be no ability to use the home button in this install. Theres nearly nothing that gestures cant do in place of it, so thats my solution. Go to accessibility then asistive touch and you can do it. My ipod home button is broken so thats how I go home on mine My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue Posted May 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I meant by what I said that there is no need for a home button. iPad has gestures which can do the same function as the home button just using a pinch on the screen. iPhone and iPod do not have this. Assistive touch is a whole other thing.

rogue Posted May 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Ok so its been a minute since I have updated any build pix so Im gonna catch you guys up... The Aluminum channel that the ipad slides into. IMG_1815 by rogueauto, on Flickr The 5mm thick backplate that connects the ipad bezel to the slides for motorization. It was machined down 1.5mm to make the channel aluminum sit flush in there and the front has been rounded over to make a nice transition for the ipad going in the slot. My Neighbor has been extremely helpful by getting the aluminum from scrap bin (and many other random parts) for me and having it cut down. I reworked it a tad and this is what I came out with. IMG_1826 by rogueauto, on Flickr IMG_1830 by rogueauto, on Flickr IMG_1840 by rogueauto, on Flickr IMG_1832 by rogueauto, on Flickr IMG_1838 by rogueauto, on Flickr Did some more work on the backplate and covered it with the same vinyl from earlier in the build so it matches everything. Its what you see when theres no ipad docked up. The backplate is attached to the large angle iron pieces i have mated together and bent at 11 degrees to accomodate the difference of the ipad and the angle the slides need to be at to function. Also plainted the slide mechanism (this is basically an extremely moddified keyboard slideout tray also provided by my neighbor). IMG_1856 by rogueauto, on Flickr IMG_1852 by rogueauto, on Flickr IMG_1860 by rogueauto, on Flickr Then I decided the channel would look better black even though it shouldnt be seen. It will be helpfull if the felt that will cover the channel shows any at its edge so just in case....
