Raspberry pi zero project - Raspberry Pi General

I recently bought a raspberry pi zero with some accesorries( I think there are 2 small electric motors, a distance sensor, support for 4 aa betteries that has a switch and some board that connects to the pins of the rasppbery pi).
1) I`m not sure to whitch pins of the raspberry pi I have to connect the board
2) Not sure where to connect the wire that has a VCC label on it
3) I suppose I need a source code to make the electric motors and the sensor run, does anybody know where I can get the source code from?
4) Any chance I can make a fan from the motors and use the sensor to turn on the motors automaticly ? I can buy other parts if I need

It's possible to connect a RS-232 device to our OMNIA? (Rocketry use)

Hi,
I'm wondring if it's possible to connect a standard RS-232 device to our OMNIA to use on it a special GPS location software (VisualGPSce: http://www.visualgps.net/VisualGPSce/default.htm ) as it was used by Vern Knowles on their High Power Rocketry project: http://www.vernk.com/Construction/AngelfireGpsPayload.htm (Take a look at the end of the page).

We need to use it to receive GPS NMEA data from RF Telemetry system on board of our rocket.
Here is a short video (in spanish) showing how it work:

We was pointed to try a RS-232 to Bluetooth adapter to simulate this port like those:
But we preffer to use a cable and a null-modem driver or something like this.
Any advice or suggestion to give?
Thank's in advance!

Japanese SGS3 Variant missing wireless charging pins.

Got this surprise after I ordered the Touchstone kit. I am kind of bummed.
Think it was to make room for the 1seg antenna on the top left side.

those are usually diagnostic pins not wireless charging
Dr. You are usually right about the pins but not in our case. We gave two exposed pins that ha vCard e been proven to be for wireless charging battery cover. The antennae test pins are covered on the steering us variant

[Q] Touchstone Modification - Galaxy Relay

I just got a Galaxy Relay 4G to replace my Pre 3 soon. I got so used to Touchstone charging so I'm planning to carry it over to the new phone, like some others have done:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/spr...stone-mod.html
Problem is there aren't any resistors around the Micro USB port where usually most mods hitch the wire into, and I suck at soldering something that tiny. Anyone got any tips on how I can solder it? The negative wire goes to the shell of the socket and positive wire to the 5V line on the port. For starters I know I need a new soldering iron, the 60W one I have is way overpowered.

[Q] Camera flex cable (tiny) extension

Hi
I bought and disassembled a nexus 7 recently for a design project I am developing.
I was hoping to play around with the position of the front camera (an inch or so). I knew the flex cable was short but I thought finding an extension cable would be easy.
Turns out it isn't.
I wanted to ask if anyone here knows if there are extensions cables available for the camera connector used in nexus 7?
I found MANY "test cables" for iPhones but unfortunately they use a different connector, and other suggestions I find online all involve the use of microscopic soldering skills (which I don't posses)
Any input would be appreciated
Here's a photo of the connector

Moto G 2014 QI Wireless Charge internal MOD

Based on the Moto G Falcon Thread i did the same for Titan.
I used a universal Qi Receiver and solder new wires on it. Where to find "Ground" and "5V" spot was in my case written on the Receiver.

The difficult part, was to find the spots on the MotoG2014. The spots i used:
The 5V ist the silver spot near to the USB Connector. For ground i used the Sim Connector
At least i pull off the platic film on the back from the Phone, to fit everythink nicely.
I guess it is no surprise, but everythink working fine.
You can also use your normal charging cable
