hi guys, since a while im modding my (unofficial) google cardboard to accomadate my phone this is just a 1 day job and can be fixed in less than 5 hours. its original descriptions say: it would fit a 7" phone but this was not true. my 5.5" phone did not fit inside and the vr-modus is offset. it should also be able to fit the honof 6 (for the honor 6+ i do not know or it fits) that is why im making this mod. materials needed: some velcro from a 1$store (in those packs are around 16-24 velcro stickers, you only need around 6-8) ducktape packaging tape 1x1 dual sided tape a cardboard box of 1 level tick a pen (color does not matter) it might not look really pretty yet. but its a start. this will also be the first google cardboard mod on the site the start: cutted the nose part and made the holes for the sticking out cardboard at the bottem its also the remaining cardboard of the packaging of the cardboard kit how it looks like if the cardboard is on the new bottem layer cutting and marking the bending part for the phone flap the newly eddited cardboard kit for longer lifetime added some tape for stability ducktape for sweat protection under the magnet the dualsided tape to keep it in place the new bottem layer+ edges to keep it in place how the complete mod looks like the small flaps at the side are for extra sturdyness for heavy/large phones things to do: *adding the velcro *painting *makin it more stable *adding the head-band *configurating the nfc-chips * fixing the magnet if it does not work feel free to tell some ideas i can imply into this small project. then i will look if its possible to do. greetings darknessblade ---------------------------------------------------- for those who ask wich phone i have: jiayu s3 3GB (antutu score = +/- 41000)

What the heck is this? A cartboard device to place your phone in front of your face so you can watch movies? I kinda like this
its basicaly a mod for the google cardboard *also the first one on the site* it makes the cardboard more sturdy. if i have more free time i can make it lookin better
