Hi there, many of you may have seen my Flickr posts referenced on TUAW, MacMod, and elsewhere, so here’s a quick little writeup about how to focus your iPhone 3G (and iPhone, if you choose to use normal iPhone disassembly instructions to replace my steps 1-3 instead). First, make sure your phone is on (yes, it’s odd, but will be explained later), and in the camera application. Now lock the phone. Next, you should make sure to have the proper tools handy before you continue. You will need:
- iPhone (or really for that matter, a number of other similar camera phones)
- An understanding that this may void your warranty, AppleCare, and may not work at all or damage your phone if done improperly
- Jeweler’s philips screwdriver
- Needlenose pliers
- iPhone/Pod case cracking tool: Official type Black stick Old Credit Card Flatblade screwdriver (not recommended as can damage case)
Back in 1993, Radius Inc, released the Rocket 33Mhz, the first Mac on a card- I recently stumbled across one still sealed and scanned everything in the box: (sorry for the quality of the PDFfiles, I still haven’t gotten Acrobat to like the scanner)
