I just did a "poor man's" repair to my laptop's keyboard.

Some keys were no longer responding normally to key presses. "R" was the worst.

I pulled the "R" keycap off the keyboard. I cleaned the switch underneath and put it back, but it was still not working well. If I tapped the switch directly without the keycap, it worked fine. I figured tolerances must have gone off somewhere, so I slapped 4 layers of masking tape under the keycap. It works much better now. I also did the "E". I have other keys to do, but I'm taking a break from the repair to consider my options, and see whether what I've done holds up.

I do welcome advice regarding the use of alternative material rather than masking tape for this fix.

I used this article:

And this video:

from @iFixit to have an idea of what it would entail.

My laptop is a Dell XPS 15 9530.

@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill also #BlackBerry's #PlayBook #Tablet was released as a accessory screen for their Phones, which gave it "#WiiU-Effect" in terms of marketing.

  • Plus #RIM relying hard on business clients and their proprietary applianced mail systems and having big carriers upsell to business people made them look outdated & quite literally out of touch once #iPhone went mainstream.

I mean, the hardware was never their problem and #SMS-Typists swear by their #BlackberryCurve's #keyboard but BlackBerry's #toolchain - just like #SymbianOS's - was just hideous to the point that devs like @fuchsiii didn't even want to try making #Apps for those devices.

  • Unlike #Mozilla fucking up #FirefoxOS by refusing to sell devices to #developers, by the time RIM & #Nokia came from their high horses, their market shares had been squeezed into mere "rounding errors" by #iOS and #Android as it was way cheaper and easier to get #Apps developed, tested, sold, bought and use them than on their devices.

#Sony even released some #Symbian #S60 devices but since they didn't have the same signing keys, one couldn't even #sideload apps (not to mention they didn't had the #OviStore on those either!)...
