Yesterday I printed up a low resolution (meaning less fill) plastic case for my LTE project. It is really low quality and not very structurally sound. I needed a quick print so that I could look at the design, hold it …
A 3D printer for my Arduino projects!
After receiving a generous gift from another developer with whom I worked on some projects on XDA, I procured a 3D printer! I purchased a Colido 3D do it yourself printer! What a blessing! This thing was really easy to put together, and I've really enjoyed playing around with it …

LTE project gets a status bar!
[gallery ids="4108,4107" type="circle" columns="2"]
In my continuing effort to learn about programming, cellular service, and Arduino, I've made a couple of great developments on my LTE project. Essentially, I'm turning these parts into a texting/gps device. I want to say a phone, but since it …
Arduino LTE Botletics shield and a Nokia 5110 display!
Today was a lot of fun, and I mean a lot! I was able to connect not only the Botletics LTE shield, but also the Nokia 5110 screen to the Arduino, AT THE SAME TIME! I know, for the rest of the Arduino enthusiasts out there, this may seem like …
Testing other SIM cards with the Arduino LTE shield from Botletics
In the continuing process of testing out various aspects of using the Botletics LTE Arduino shield, I've decided to do a quick test with a few other SIM cards that I have available. I tested two other options, my Straight Talk SIM card, and a Freedom Pop SIM card. I …
Texting trouble with the LTE shield!
Next on my bucket list for things to test out with the Botletics LTE Shield was text messaging, or SMS. According to the demo, it was supposed to be really easy and straight forward, but it wasn't.
First, I used the Hologram Dashboard to send an SMS message to the …
